There was a study done where a group of men, and a group of women were put into seperate rooms. In these rooms were two steros, each with a different tape in them. On each tape was a different story. Each group was told to focus only upon the first story that was played. The first story was started, then, a few minutes into the first story, a seconbd story was started. Afterwards each group as asked specifics about the first story. Men had little trouble focusing on just one story, even while another was playing. Women, however, could not. I think the reason why there are more male programmers then female is because males think like computers. Programming requires step by step thought while also focusing on the program as a whole. While the female mind has no trouble with the 'program as a whole' the step by step method seems to requires focus upon one thing at a time. Also most women find it boring to code. ...Zack...

While I do agree with what you say, I think part of it is also due to upbringing. I was very lucky, my parents always treated my brother and I exactly the same way, we both washed up after dinner, we also both mowed the lawn. I do however remember the shock on a primary school teachers face in the mid-eighties when she asked if I would like to be a secretary when I grew up. I remember quite clearly saying "No, when I grow up I'll have a secretary, not be one!" :laugh: Oh well - fortunately kids aren't streamed so much anymore, and most get encouragement to do whatever they want. I don't have my own secretary (btw. I have the greatest respect for secretaries! Our CEO's PA has the most difficult job in the whole organisation), but I do have a professional programming job at least :)
It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. - Roger Wright

Having a daughter, I am very aware of this, I always look for ways she is being gender programmed so I can tear it down ( for example last night we discussed that boys can be nurses and girls can be doctors ).

It seems still to be the case that girls are socialised to, as a rule, not pursue careers in areas like coding. I've never worked with a female coder, although I keep hoping this place employs one ( because I want to see what all the terminally single guys here do as a result ). I know a lot of guys who are just too plain stupid to ever be able to use a computer, let alone code. All generalisations fall apart at some point, and I don't see any reason why coding ability would be defined along lines of gender. Too bad I missed the thread that started this, it sounds like it would have been fun. I like flaming idiots. :0) Christian NO MATTER HOW MUCH BIG IS THE WORD SIZE ,THE DATA MUCT BE TRANSPORTED INTO THE CPU. - Vinod Sharma Anonymous wrote: OK. I read a c++ book.

Exactly. :) What is the male version of nymphomaniac? Could it be there is no male version, because we're in that "state" by default? :~ -- In the land of the blind, be king! Some day, Dominion, some say prayers, now I say mine.

Question would be: Do women have a brain? Answer: Generally, no. It means, there are exceptions. For exceptions there is sense to ask: Do women have a brain to program? Answer is, of course: No.
Would you care to elaborate? I hope this post doesn't mean what I believe it does. Hint: I'm giving you a chance to extricate yourself before you get jumped on. Hard.

I think it is not about women have a brain to program or not. It is the question of whether women want to do it or not. I know most of my female friends or colleagues do not like to do programming. I think no one in the world born to be incapable in something unless for those who are misfortunate. Or else, everyone has equal chances of being someone great. Just that how much efforts (hard works) have been contributed that make the difference. A genious is great not because he/she is smart but he/she is hardworking.

Christian Graus wrote: because I want to see what all the terminally single guys here do as a result ). It's something best not experienced. I've worked with a few women coders, of varying degrees of skill and attraction. There is a small group of ubergeeks who flock to them regardless. And the utter lack of social skill shines through clearly. Currently, an attractive part-time student joined our ranks, and only works two days a week. This one fellow is constantly near her cube on those days (generally he's not be seen), the other turns into johnny-joke-a-minute trying to gain her favor. The contest goes on online too via blogs. It's sad. ** by the way, none of this judging indicates an overabundance of cool or confidence on my part, it's just depressing to see a guy fall apart so quickly ** BW "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts." - Bertrand Russell

Not in response to the article, but yes, I know that women have the brain to program. I have known several female software engineers in my short time in the industry who are eminently more qualified than I am. To say that a particular gender is incapable of programming is just plain dumb.

He sits furthest from it and we're between him and it. He pays for all drinks. What do you think of my plan? Oh and no hamsters allowed.
