Any fellow sisters out there doing engineering/computer sceince? Particulary post grads? PhDs to be more exact?
Ah yep. See I'm sure you must have felt like that YOU are the sole representative of all women - especially when you're sitting at a lecture on Fourier transformation and everyone else in the room are guys.
Seriously, what is with the ladies? Is it us? or is it the society?
I don't know ... but it is pretty annoying. And it makes the rest of us feel spooked out.0
Like poor Celia for example (the comic strip on the left)
Let me tell you this kind of thing can permanently scar you for life.
Today for instance, I went to a conference in Melbourne (yes I go to conferences now - hence feeling very big and important), where the woman participants were (surprise surprise) around 5%.
Seriously.
