This is a strange comparison, what does software have to do with nursing? What about all of the under-employed women who are not interested in healthcare or law? As a female developer who is actively involved in helping women learn more about tech career paths, I would never presume to lure someone who felt called to nursing away from that field. I am more interested in reaching women stuck in dead-end administrative, service, and retail jobs who are craving more challenging and rewarding work.

- DanBC 13y ago"Personality disorder" is part of a set of diagnoses in DSM and ICD. They're controversial diagnoses and people throwing the term around as an attack is stigmatising and hateful.
- katrillion 13y agoI have met one man who was interested in learning to code and looking for help getting started, but most of the folks I've met in that position have been women.
