Entrenched sexism means women are missing from hardcore, techno-scientific jobs

Quote:

Take a stroll through any of the many tech conferences that Bangalore hosts and it’s hard to miss the gender skew: women are simply absent, or few enough to count on your fingers. While industry/trade tech conferences, where companies nominate women employees, have better representation, women just go missing when it comes to geek conferences, tech or hacking activity groups, open source/community projects or even Linux User Groups.

I didn't the whole article, it's the usual women don't go for the hard tech jobs because the industry is sexist garbage. But then I googled the author and boy, does it fit Roosh's ugly feminist model!

Indian women have one hell of a chip on their shoulder when they're not getting fat and ugly from eating too much and popping out so many kids.

What puzzles me about Indian women in the U.S. is that, bar none, they are the most unkempt chicks out there. This is especially the case in first-generation Indian broads, but even in the second-generation, most Indian girls put less into basic hair and skin care, let alone fashion, than basically any other ethnic group.

The other weird thing is that many of these Indian girls actually regularly exercise, yet you'd never know it from their frumpy formless bodies. I see them at gyms sweating away, yet never showing even the slightest glimmer of muscle tone.

Could be diet related. I know a lot of them are quasi or full vegetarians. Which for most girls means pasta-tarian. Nothing but carbs carbs and more carbs.

The "princess syndrome" is not a joke over there whatsoever.

Oh boy, the hormone Testosterone has ALWAYS been associated with non conformity and independent thinking.
THAT is, why Tech fields tend to be highly male dominated.
When it comes to engineering solutions, if you're right, you're right, unlike an English essay.
Heck, the vast majority of MEN here are too conformist to take risks, or any out of the box thinking, I don't think the women are going to be an improvement.

I guess it's the genetic history, Agriculture has a shorter history of agriculture than Europe and East Asia, just like pacific islanders and other hunter/gatherer cultures.
The metabolism needs more time to adapt to a high carb diet.
