Women are usually pretty awful programmers and engineers. Sorry, but the cats out of the bag.
I don't care how many classes women take, men will still rule the technology world.
If it's any consolation there will always be charity positions for under-qualified women, like Carly Fiorina, Meg Whitman, and that clueless simpleton at Yahoo!, who can't even get their email client to work.
If I offended any ladies here, let me apologize. Perhaps I can fund the next Spanx start-up.
- carebear 13y agoI do take offense to your comment. And I'm not accepting your apology. My mother graduated from Berkeley as an EECS major. As a matter of fact, so did two of my aunts. They all earn a lot more than the male computer engineers in my family, and this is independent of their sex. Every subject has its introductory classes, many of which people have taken in high school. There isn't an option for introductory CS in many high schools. It seems logical to have one, then, in college
- e12e 13y agoI'm not a lady (or woman) so I can't speak for them, but you certainly managed to offend me. > Women are usually pretty awful programmers and engineers. People are generally awful programmers. Don't know that many engineers, but I've certainly met a few good engineers of both sexes in the offshore industry. As for female programmers, most of those I've met or seen the work of are on average much better than men -- but that's probably just because I've seen more code written by men (and also more crappy code).
