> Young attractive women also get an excellent financial education through dating, at least in terms of how much money people have made through various means, and how smart they have to be for it. I think this is yet another reason why women quit the engineering pipeline.
This is an incredibly sexist take- women aren’t leaving engineering professions because they can just date someone wealthy. They leave because there are too many men with opinions like this one.
- jl2718 6y agoJust to clarify, I didn't say that. I'm saying that they learn which professions do well, and it's often not engineers, so they see opportunities for themselves elsewhere. Guys brag about this stuff and tell dates how they became successful. Lots of BS too. I'm always surprised by the things I learn through people that date a lot.
