You're right. These guys are very very sharp. I was simply being an azz while trying to make my point.
We need to increase the number of women in engineering mathematics science and other research fields.
Apparently Misogyny is why Women Can't Advance in STEM fields

I am not being elitist at all. I just think that allied fields are NOT where women should be pushed. I should have made that clear. At the end of the day the point of any education or training is to make money and if people are making money and taking care of themselves and their families and that's really all that matters.
lol @ nikkas thinking Harvard and MIT have "IT" degrees 
But to address the topic. My best homie has a electrical engineering degree (if im not mistaken) and dude said out of all his last 2 years in school he had maybe 1 woman in his classes. Not to mention NO woman professors.
Its already hard to reinforce girls to go into STEM but its even harder when they don't see successful women in the field. It's a vicious cycle. But on an institutional level yes its hella misogynistic and strangely even more so to traditionally attractive female students. There is an assumption that if they are in STEM as a woman and are attractive, that they don't really belong there.
You hear lots of key terms and phrases like "Who she blow to get into this department?" "Oh, she's getting breaks because she's cute".
shyt like that....and lets not even get into the creeper factor.

We mite have to start another thread on that one breh. Community college to the 4 year is the new degree hustle. And like u did its def possible to get this shmoney without a degree. Anyone who throws their alma mater out like they did work in 2016 is an idiotBreh I've had broke nikkas look down they're nose at me because they went to an ivy league school and I went to state college
As long as you're money straight and you like what you do, your degree and alma matar don't really mean shyt
This is some Leave It To Beaver era female stereotyping.Women don't get into IT for the same reasons they don't get into any technical fields. In the west girls and women are shunned away from math and science. I worked with and dated a few Russians. I would say it's damn near a 50/50 split for them in technical fields
Its not much different than blacks being underrepresented in these fields. The American system sucks. Meanwhile there are hella black immigrant engineers and the like. But thats another discussion
You are being elitist. The below, combined with a few of your other posts come off as pretentious.
This bit here is cringeworthy. One, its ignorant. A lot of companies have their own in-house software applications (hence why they have in-house developers/software engineers) that help desk and IT support is vital in providing support for these applications and answering problems from the end-user's perspective. Developers and engineers don't have the time to answer every user's question and problem regarding the issues with their software and so its delegated to help desk to be the frontline in handling user issues. You can have all the technical know how and still require a call to tech support. In fact, I know in the healthcare and/or research fields (given you mentioned electron microscopes) that help desk and tech support is especially needed and the software is particularly specific for said work.
Secondly, as I said it comes off as someone who is overcompensating for maybe not living up to their own or other's expected potential. Either that, or just outright fronting. The sudden need to post about Arduino boards and electron microscopes to subtlety brag about your supposed experience with technology seems random. Combine this with your other posts, your try hard title "Profesora Emérita de Éter, Mwanamke Mzuri Sana", and just general attitude points to someone who has surface level knowledge of certain things but no real depth or experience of said things. Basically throwing everything and the kitchen sink to plaster the walls with your supposed intelligence and education. Its obvious because I at one time was like this...in middle school. Usually individuals who went to college, especially one as competitive as Yale, eventually lose this special snowflake attitude when they finally realize that they are no longer a special snowflake since they are surrounded with equally if not more impressive people.
If you don't mind answering, what did you major in and/or what is your field of work?
Even more telling since Arduino's are introduced in some 100 level engineering design courses.
Add university of study as well
, but pigs will probably fly before you get an answer.

I work in the IT field. Plenty of women.
I aint read them tweets but...
What were the male/female ratios where you worked/studied because the ratio has always been skewed from my experience.
I noticed that the IT field was mainly white men, I could count on 1 hand the amount of females...I could also count on one hand the amount of blacks.

Never once came to the thread.

I trained Sheng Long and Shonuff
The school I attend only offers a degree in CS but I think there are schools that offer a degree for IT. I think CIS is the degree for that field. You can argue it isn't as hard as programming but there are things I don't know about networking, I could be schooled easily on that topic.
A lot of chicks just want easy majors or just wanna be armchair sjw's. S/O to my honeys who grinded through engineering/cs/chemistry/medicine/etc. I got a soft spot for yall
