You're being dismissive. She has a degree in computer science and worked as a product manager. I'm sure this had less relevance in her financial success than her gender, though.

    I apologize that my comment seemed callous. I didn't mean to diminish any of her accomplishments or skills. I was just merely repeating a common trope. I'm sorry if what I said was offensive.
