Comment Re:Women don't want to do CS? (Score 1) 1563
I am a woman in CS and I'm going to generalize a little bit. Beyond being interested in CS, women are more interested in stability and flexibility. I can see why it decreased after 2001. After the dot bomb, computer science didn't look so hot. You can work just as hard in other fields and have more stability and more money.
I think that women are just as interested, but are looking out for the bigger picture - what will provide best for themselves and their families.
I'm really lucky that when I had my son last year that I could work 1/2 time as a CS.
