The sexist boundary was crossed within this decade. The females that it would pertain to are only freshmen in high school. They have to go to college first.
What line of work are you in? or do you work at all?

To respond to the female engineer question:
One of my childhood friends has a phd in engineering. She works for Boeing in the aviation design area.
My 21 year old cousin just graduated with a 4.0 in a double major: chemical and mechanical engineering. She's now overseas in Japan
Women are in the technical fields, my friend. You just have to look.
Lets take a look at the statistics on just the engineering graduates.
en.wikipedia.org...
only 11% of the engineering workforce in 2003 were women.
It would appear that women just cannot handle engineering, else there would be an equal proportion of male and female graduates.
It also matters if they get jobs and if they stay in the jobs or go home to play Mom.
It also matters if they take up the difficult and demaning research and development type positions or house keeping and very easy Civil Engineering jobs.
So, explain why, with all the incentives females have to get into these harder and well paying jobs, they don't take off with the opportunity and we see equal numbers of male and female?
The problem usually is that one doesn't get to play in the more difficult engineering studies.
Also examine what they do, as females, moving into the corperate positions, like Sales.
Lets also do another type measure of looking at the Nobel ratios of male to female:
chartsbin.com...
The ratio of women significant in sciences is about 2 percent.
All the doors have been wide open to women to enter sciences for a long time.

Oh my friend. Don't you know? Correlation does not imply causality.
The sceinces have been the providence of men for generations. Do you really think its that easy for a woman to break into that inner sanctum? Do you really suppose men wouldn't feel threatened by this, and do everything possible to prevent it? For there to be the same amount of female engineers doesn't just require females who have engineering degrees. It also requires the men to let go of the status quo, step out of their comfort zone, and allow the women the chance.
I love your generalization of all women as lazy, only willing to do the easy work. I submit to you that the average woman with a family and a job works a lot harder than her male counterpart; not only does she work at her place of employment, she also (most likely) is in charge of running the house and caring for the children.
I noticed you completely ignored my other post. Was that intentional or an oversight?

You need to stop working on personal information issues. Deal with the discussions, and don't even verge close to personal attack methods.

What you might like to portray as males doing in the females wanting into science is more about basic genetics.
Most every business likes to have committed workers that they invest time and effort in and have reasonable assurance they will be long term and a good investment.
This usually doesn't work well with female employees in the sciences as the ole biological clock starts ticking, then they gotta have kids, then they gotta quit work, and so on. Women chose not to be long term in the sciences.
Very few women ignore their clock. And all businesses know that clock exists.
So, now it is back to the traditional role of women, cast in the times of Biblical days noticed the very same natural order.
Don't try to blame the males for problems with the female's genitic make up that causes the issue. Just look at all the school slots taken up by the females that pass the course work only to work a few years and quit to go back to follow that biological clock.
Where you managed to stay somewhat near the theme, I have commented. When you went well off the theme, silence, to push back into the realm for religion and men rule over women for own good. Your claim for "completely ignored" is simply untrue. Try reading and you will discover, the on topic areas were not ignored.

My entire post was on topic, friend. Perhaps you chose to ignore the parts that you couldn't answer?

OK, explain how the issues of Black Slavery that you got into is a religion theme that falls into mans rule of women for women's own good.

You know, this debate is focusing on generalilzations and wide characterizations. There's little attempt to address legitimate questions, except with a sweeping remark such as "women are lazy" or what have you.

But, in the case for a Police person female these same issues of strength apply, as part of the job is wrestling down drunks and taking on males.

probably has something to do with some egotistical bigot thinking they should rule over ANYONE else "for their own good".
