This really came across as a story of a personal setback, but trying to shoehorn in sexism somehow and really goes nowhere except for the "we need more women in STEM" "Without resources and support, it’s no wonder that girls in college aren’t choosing STEM degrees." What does that have to do with the author not doing well in math? She then goes on to say we need to listen to girls, but at this point I think the story has gone off the rails. She didn't do well in math, took an English major instead, and isn't taking any of the free (probably women only) coding boot camps or resources already being offered to her. She's blaming sexism and "the system" for something that it sounds like she can easily overcome and perhaps excel at. As they always say.. you don't know until you try. for the record, college math is what's holding me back from completing my degree. I have also been bad (very bad) at math for many years. literal anxiety over it. This isn't just a woman in STEM thing. As harsh as it might sound, this is the real world. There aren't always hand holding gender specific resources. If you want to do something, you have to take the steps to do it.
