13. I assume this has a history

Given that a Boycott is being conducted I presume there is a history of not responding to concerns about bias. Which is a shame cause if the bias is capable of skewing the gender ratio to such significance it's possible there is much more bias being injected. Assuming they are using a blind review of proposals/papers, then perhaps contradictory lines of investigation are being excluded?

I get the feeling that sexism is just the tip of the iceberg here.
