I don't doubt that, but you can't really refute a general argument with a single data point. It's not as if I said "all Mac users are more intelligent than all Windows users", which would be nonsense.
"Women in IT are generally paid less than men." cannot be refuted by "I know a lady who makes a ton of money in IT."
- lutze 14y agoYou make a completely unfounded generalization and then ask ME for citations? You first bub. Edit: and frankly, I don't see how you're refuting my point that being intelligent and educated doesn't necessarily make you a domain expert in fields you have little experience in. Or are you the kind of guy who lectures the mechanic with 30 years experience on how to fix your car?
