Wow. Let me clarify what I meant by "cultural" support because obviously you are taking it as I need to be pampered. What I meant is that schools and families should support and develop the choices/interests that their children have instead of forcing them towards what they deem as "appropriate". I did not have this support and it would have been nice if I had. So supporting women or men to choose fields that they are LESS biologically inclined is NOT a bad thing. And as for the "testosterone induced opinions", I just said that because there are very few if any women discussing this with you. Sorry for speaking with sarcasm it obviously does not come across online.

Ok, I have to add my female two cents here amongst all this testosterone induced opinions. First, the video basically stated that scientifically, gender interests are dictated biologically with a side of nurture. Therefore nurture does have an effect on the overall outcome. I guess I must have had too much testosterone at birth or something since I like programming and don't collect purses. Anyways, I do not think that supporting female educational interests should be financially motivated. So, I don't agree that they should be handing out more money based on whether you have more girls enrolled in the class. On the other hand, as a chick whose favorite class in high school was programming it would have been nice to have more “cultural” support when choosing my degree/career. Also, you guys should realize that for a lone female joining a field that is dominated by men it is not easy and some females may shy away from CS just because of that. Which may mean the field is losing out on talent. I mean, jeez look how we always have to go to the bathroom in groups.
