Sometimes that works, but shops often dictate or encourage certain styles and practices that may hinder "personal productivity" practices so that the team can do maintenance.
And it's not just a matter of typing: there are screwy schedules, screwy deadlines, fickle requesters, etc. If you finish coding fast, they'll make you install software, fix Outlook, clean printers or whatnot.
Yes, it's a living, but typically one plateaus early salary-wise. Why not encourage women to be sys admins or high-end application trainers? Why focus on coding?
Is the goal to find more labor, or to help women?
Who cares! Coding is on average a dead-end job with long hours. Why not talk about good long-term careers for women instead, rather than high burn-and-churn jobs? Coders happen to be demand right now, but we've seen bubbles before, and will probably see them again.

Kids will get to program a Dalek to make him more powerful.
"Look, my Dalek is now so powerful it writes my code for me!"
Wait, how do you know a Dalek is a "him"?
Dude, it's harder to hide your porn that way
Clippy...no way to turn him off
You can, but you'd have to go through the pod bay doors without a space helmet. I found that cheat tip on a black monolith found in the dumpster.
"Luke, use the Fork"
"Being a security company, we wanna keep our mistakes secure."
What, they haven't found a subtle and quiet way to sneak in like the N-S-A does?
One of the chief duties of the mathematician in acting as an advisor... is to discourage... from expecting too much from mathematics. -- N. Wiener
