I wonder about this also. If women don't want to go into engineering why make such an effort to recruit them?

Medicine and law are different of course, women don't need to be recruited since plenty apply plenty on their own.

Well maybe the issue isn’t that they don’t want to enter the field. Maybe they have been discouraged from taking the appropriate classes, not had mentors, been taught that engineering is too hard or requires a different personality type.

*exactly* - there are programs to encourage and recruit females into those careers because for too long, they were not encouraged to do so, and many feel (still) unwelcome in those fields.

When I was a CS major in college in the 90s I was one of two girls in my first year CS class. A female friend who is a software engineer is surrounded by men who make disparaging comments to her.

Male dominated fields are difficult for women to crack because they feel so unwelcome.

I started in the IT field in the 80s and I had bosses who were openly against women working on their teams. The first job I had as an intern, I lead a project with two other male interns working for me. They both were paid 2$ per hour more than me. I complained and it took a year to adjust my salary. I worked in defense in this area, and yes, the other young females working with me were made to clean out the guys offices and do admin type work for them. We were never allowed to brief anyone in our customer base and the President of the small company would trot out the more attractive females when they were interviewing a desired prospect. None of the women lasted long.

Ditto for med school, and the law, and every trade.”

You know they're creeps if they fear education.
