Is it easier to be a lesbian than a straight woman in the tech industry?

Women at the Lesbians Who Tech Summit talked about their experiences blending in with the tech bros - but that doesn't always mean equality

Over this past weekend, something strange and a little funny happened in Silicon Valley: 1,600 lesbians held their third and largest annual tech conference to date.

None of the sessions at the Lesbians Who Tech Summit, which took over the massive Castro Theatre and surrounding bars from Thursday to Sunday, were particularly gay-themed; as with any tech conference, there were panels on the future of ed-tech, robot innovations, and data-driven design interspersed with startup demos.
