The darnedest thing about stereotypes and generalizations is that everyone is atypical in some way or another.

- jandrese 9y agoSure, but when you are atypical because you are an 80s girl who is into computers it becomes hard to use your experiences to determine why there is a large gender disparity in computer relented fields. It's hard to draw conclusions about a population by only inspecting the outliers, you get lots of noise in the data.
- mfoy_ 9y agoI don't know... if you're an 80s girl who got into computers despite lots of girls not getting into computers perhaps your experiences, and the hurdles you faced, are actually more interesting and relevant than the more "typical" answers.
