This stereotype gets really tiring after a while. I was taking apart toasters (and dolls) long before you were born, just to see how they worked.Originally posted by: Nebor
The only reason I could imagine a woman coming here is for the attention...
Or if they found the link in their techie boyfriend's favorites folder.
Or if they mispelled something into a computer related term on google and wound up here...
j/k girls, I've met a few techie girls in my lifetime, but I've never met a woman who sees computers as a passion, as most ATOTers do. They see them as a means to an end... sort of how they generally view cars.

I've also learned to shut up about it because too many people think I'm weird. Or worse - when I walked into the head of Local 52's office to see about joining the union like a bunch of my friends/coworkers, he shut the door and told me how I could "join" the union. And he wasn't kidding.
And you wonder why you don't meet too many female tech wonks.
May your daughter be a tech wonk.Originally posted by: Nebor
