????所以，拜托了，別再老是想著并到處宣揚什么所謂的答案就是教會女性如何編程。要想改變現狀要做的事還很多。對我們這些早就知道如何編程，并且從青少年時期就開始干這個的女性來說，我們每天都要和內心深處的“濫竽充數綜合征”（imposter syndrome，一般譯為“騙子綜合征”，指一個有能力的人總覺得技不如人，覺得自己是騙子而等著被人識破的心理狀態——譯注）作斗爭，同時還得和從周圍大多數人那里聽到的各種關于女性角色的說法作斗爭。

????創新需要大量知識、無數努力和高度專注。只有當我們身邊充滿支持的力量時，才可能做到專注。如果我們被太多陳詞濫調和所謂“頭等大事”弄得心煩意亂，那就很難指望我們能創造出可以改善人類生活、同時創造財富的產品了。

????本文的重點不是要指責誰，向什么人發難，也不是要找什么借口。它只是試圖起到教育作用，同時讓讀者意識到，如果我們真的想和男性平起平坐，在個人、社會和全球層面需要投入多大程度的努力。

????如果您希望伸出援手，同時確實深信推動女性投身技術界這一事業的非凡意義，那就請在每一天里都隨時隨地地宣傳這種觀念，鼓勵身女性，同時放手讓女性去干吧！

????最后，盡管可以抱著希望，但千萬別指望這些努力能在2020年就造就出馬克、杰夫、斯蒂夫或埃隆這樣的人物！畢竟女性在美國獲得投票權也只有100年時間，我們還需要43年才可能結出碩果。（財富中文網）

????So please, I beg of you, stop thinking and touting that the answer lies in merely teaching women how to code. It requires more than just that. For those of us who know how already know how to code, and have been doing since we were teenagers, we can attest to the daily internal battle we fight against the imposter syndrome, and the outward battle we fight against received mixed messages from everyone else.

????Innovation takes a great amount of knowledge, effort, and focus. Focus can only come if there is a support structure around us to help facilitate it. If we are distracted by mixed messages, and a plethora of priorities, then it will be hard to expect for us to create products that improve human life and wealth.

????The point of this post isn't to place blame, to single out anyone, or come up with excuses. It is merely to educate, and make the reader aware of the amount of effort that has to take place on an individual, social and global level if we really want to have parity of presence.

????If you want to help and truly believe in the cause of having women in tech then educate, encourage and empower every day!

????Finally, hope but please don't expect that all these efforts to yield a Mark, Jeff, Steve, or Elon by 2020, for it will only have been 100 years since we were given the right to vote in the US, we may still need an additional 43 years.
