That's an old cliche, still wrong.

The amount of women contributors in open source is a lot *worse* than
the amount of women in IT.

https://www.wired.com/2014/07/openhatch/
"According to a survey conducted last year, only about 11 percent of
open source contributors are women. Meanwhile, women account for 23
percent of all computer programmers and 39.5 percent of web developers,
according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics."

"Currently 25 percent of all software developers are women, but only 3
percent work in free and open source software."
