>My wife is a nurse. A female dominated field. I also own a construction company. A male dominated field. In neither field would you see a company or an organization suggest hiring one gender over the other to satisfy a ratio.
The only difference between men and women is their physical power. Yes, construction company is a male dominated field, because men are more suitable for doing that kind of job because of their body strength.
On the other hand.. in computer science, there is no difference between men and women, everything runs on brain power. So I find it very weird that there is very few women in computer science.

- pincubator 12y agoSurely, I am serious. I can't see any other difference that can affect the choice of career path between men and women.

So I find it very weird that there is very few women in computer science. It's sexism. People are being judged and losing opertunities based on their gender, which as you point out, is irrelevant. Here's a mind blowing factoid: The lack of women in tech is strong evidence that tech is not a meritocracy.
