cs is a hard field that most people are not suited to work in. dealing with hormones is even harder. put the two together and what do you get? women who drop out of cs.
women [more or less] are raised under the notion that if something goes wrong, some tears and a good heart to heart with your bff will make everything better. guess what? that SEGV thats been busting the live server for 2 days doesn't give a rats behind about how tired you are or that your dog misses you or that you gained 14 pounds just sitting at your desk drinking redbull and eating ramen while your girlfriends call from the bar whoo!-ing all over from the 40 shots they just downed telling you about the hot soccer player they are bangin' tonight while you stare at a terminal trying to debug some shotty library wrapper on the verge of a breakdown cause you don't understand gcc's wants and needs like mom understands yours and your getting tired which makes you emotional leading to a breakdown cycle of tears, frustration, and unproductivity...
perhaps the only thing that understands women less than men are computers.
just a thought.
