That's the classic argument when men are asked about the lack of women in tech. "We don't forbid them to come. If they would be interested, they would be here. We will be happy if they join." And that's not how it works. In my opinion, we have to be actively welcoming and inclusive at all times. The slippery moment we forget, we are making people move away.
