I visited the BMW plant in Munich a number of years ago. They boasted at the time that they were an equal-opportunity employer, and that they had as many women employed as they had men. Yet, most of the engineers and maintenance were men, while women were mostly administrative staff and Q.A. (all the quality people were women, and they even explained that decision in that they have much higher attention to detail).
