Woman are "underrepresented" in STEM because the narrative of, say, engineering doesn't emphasize how much it contributes to the society. But strong, independent wymenz need the social aspect to be interested in STEM.
Mary Wells, Chair of the Ontario Network of Women in Engineering, identified amongst other the following:
>Some examples of our existing NEGATIVE narrative include:
>Engineers are geeks
>Engineers are men
>Engineers have no fashion sense
>Engineers are smart
>Engineers can fix almost anything
>Engineers are good at math

To make STEM more appealing to women, we need to make it more girly and normie. Being good at math or emphasizing solutions over fashion sense is so last century and smells of patriarchy and rape culture anyway.
Sorry you smelly /g/eeks, your time is over. Flowers and beauty will now rule the STEM departments.
As long as we have capitalism and private ownership we are okay. Corporations want results, sometimes they hire the token female but that's it

I dunno, stalin would've literally executed these feminists.
He would've had a token 'womens society' or some shit, but he would make sure it stayed token.

I know at least half a dozen women programmers and engineers who are better at their job than you. Cuck.
>>53553990
>>Engineers are smart
how the fuck is this a bad thing?
(btw. stopped reading there so if it is explained later let me know)
post that fake karlie tweet about girly code, it always makes me laugh
so women want to be able to be engineers and engineers would need to be identified as:
>Engineers are not geeks
>Engineers are women
>Engineers have fashion sense
>Engineers are stupid
>Engineers can fix almost nothing
>Engineers are not good at math

Ableist scum!
>Being good at math or emphasizing solutions over fashion sense is so last century and smells of patriarchy and rape culture anyway.
>emphasizing solutions over fashion sense
There was some uni in Norway that changed the name of "Electrical Engineering" to "Energy and Environmental engineering" or something similar. Suddenly girls everywhere

here you go m8
>Engineers are smart
>Engineers are good at math
This is quite flattering but engineers are probably the bottom feeders of STEM
>>53554442
Because it's intimidating!!!

This is why women should not be allowed to go to school. They get bullshit communications/womyn's studies degrees and then white knight faggots hoping it will get them laid, feel they must hire them for something so bullshit positions like chairwoman of women in engineering initiative coalition get created so that dumb bitches who know nothing about the actual subject they are bitching about can get paid to bitch about how engineering jobs need cuter outfits, more tampon dispensers, and lower iq-ed workers. Never hire a woman for any job. Women are sex objects. They should be at home looking pretty, making and raising babies, cooking, and cleaning.

That's a bit harsh though. It would suffice if we don't lower the standards of the outcome. Help people individually (there are only so many learning styles), but don't water down the results just to cater to some stupid agenda.
what the fuck is wrong with these 'feminists'?
why do we need women in engineering and such?
women who want to do it will, and women who can't will get a >muh feelings degree in vaginal basket weaving or something
