This seems to silently assume that women are not geekshamed.
Otherwise the proper comparison would be "more women driven from phys by harassment than both men and women by geekshaming", if we want to argue that geekshaming is not a problem. We should not automatically assume that focusing public attention on a scientist's shirt instead of their scientific results will have zero impact on geek women.
