Isn't that a change that needs to be seen in general, not just gaming?

As a man in the trades, absolutely. I do my best to encourage women of any age to learn a skilled trade. There's still a bit of a "boys club" sentiment, thankfully it's starting to die out. There's not enough people interested in doing the hard work involved in the trades to keep the skills going, even the sexists can't afford to keep women out.
I have absolutely no issues working next to anyone, regardless of where they are on the gender/sexuality spectrums, all I ask is that they do their share and not be a douche-cannoe.
Maybe unsurprisingly the only 2 asks I have are too much for a lot of people.
