I never considered going into fashion or nursing or anything other remotely female dominated profession, because they just weren't interesting to me, and no amount of PR would have changed that.
- mcantor 16y agoThe problem is that some women are interested in programming, but are discouraged by the education process, which is as male-dominated as the field itself. I know several guys who are in fashion, nursing and other female-dominated fields, but they have never been made to feel ostracized and alienated to the extent that budding female programmers are.
