hi i'm molly wood from cnet com here with a Molly rant in a minute now sometimes I talk to women in tech and they don't want to talk about being a woman in tech sometimes I don't want to either but then I remember that we have to keep talking about it there aren't enough women in tech and that's a problem but an even bigger problem is the hostile attitudes that keep women out of tech in the first place now recently del held a summit in Copenhagen Denmark Michael Dell was the keynote speaker Modell's Danish team hired an emcee who is well known for making sexist and racist remarks he kept the street going at this summit he opened his comments by saying that there were no women in the crowd of 800 and he was happy about that he said that men invented all the good things and women invented the rolling pin he said I T was the last bastion where men could keep women out and that everyone in the audience should go home and tell their wife to shut up ya know that really happened now Dells Danish director did apologize if the MCS comments had offended anyone but this is the person that he hired to follow Michael Dell on stage and these are the kind of attitudes that keep women out of the tech world completely or make them leave once they get there we did reach out to del for comment and they hadn't gotten back to us by press time keep watching the Molly rants blog for updates and keep talking about this problem because it is not solved yet
