Note that my post was specifically regarding GoDaddy fostering sexism (intentionally or not), but that many of the discussions _also_ involve being diverse in other areas. For instance, the very first link in my article is to one called "The Problem with a Slate of White, Male Speakers". So, please, find that discussion elsewhere as it's happening—but, I had nothing to say on ethnicity other than pointing out my own for clarity's sake and stating that it shouldn't matter.
"But, all that aside, we’re still in the middle of a long, long discussion in our industry about attracting people who aren’t white males (which I am)."
...which is an observation of a discussion, not a statement about demographics, and that discussion is happening whether it's actually relevant or not.
