Women were not the backbone of computer engineering. They were the ones who did the computing before we had machines that could do so quickly.
Engineering refers to designing the components and while some women have contributed to this field the overwhelming of the design of parts has been done by men.
So you learned enough about the history of computing to make claims like this, but not enough to know that practically all the first programmers were female and some even pioneered theory, techniques, and languages? For example Grace Hopper, who you are erasing from history here.
I call bullshit. Either you purposely ignore these facts, or your sexism prevented them from being remembered when you learned them.
There is a reason several people have pointed out facts to you. You clearly want to deny the fact that women were very much a part of computer ENGINEERING
You’re just being pedantic. Women were extremely pivotal in the creation of computing [insert more specific subfields if you want, doesn’t change anything]. Your comments certainly all read as refuting this. It’s not controversial to the non-incel community.
Im only talking about computer engineering no other aspect of computing. It only seems like Im being pedantic because it has taken you this long to realize the point I have been making from the start which to be clear is entirely uncontroversial in history circles.

My point is that engineering us a specific job with a specific definition and the ENGINEEERS were not all women.
I never said anything about any other aspect of computing so the rest of your post is just a straw man you added for no reason.

No Im denying they were the MAJORITY of computer engineers. This is an easily verifiable fact. You can look it up with the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Oh weird, apparently no such link
Grace Hopper literally invented the first software compiler.
If you dismiss software engineering as a form of engineering, then you have no qualifications to be an engineer and no business even commenting.
Im not denying that some women played a part. Im objecting to the claim they were the majority. They were not the MAJORITY
Why do you think the human computers weren’t the majority of people creating the first electronic computers?
Because we know who those people were. They were all men.
