Woman who helped launch the current uproar over sexism in tech is sorry

Article here. Excerpt:

'In 2013, Elissa Shevinsky wrote an article titled "That's it, I'm finished defending sexism in tech." The article was based on her concerns that a major tech expo would open with a presentation with an app called "Titstare," which, as the name implied, allowed users to take photos of themselves staring at women's breasts.
...
Because of the movement she helped create, Shevinsky has been described as a "social justice warrior" — a usually derogatory term applied to those who engage in hostile arguments in the name of righting a perceived social injustice.

Shevinsky is now sorry for whatever role she played in creating all of this outrage and silliness. She's sorry, she writes in her new book, Lean Out, and she adds that her initial position was "flawed."

"I'm glad to come out in 'Lean Out' and say that my original essay — the one that has been the foundation for people assuming that I am [a social justice warrior] — was deeply flawed," Shevinsky told the Washington Examiner. "I do see sexism and gender issues, a culture war, in Silicon Valley, but the knee-jerk responses (recruit more women! attack the men!) are not the answer."'
