Why’s that dave?

jessi, I could’ve used your help re-writing my profile this weekend, but I think I did okay since I got a bunch of unsolicited emails.

But, let me ask you this question, one Asian woman whom I emailed replies that she doesn’t meet someone in person until she knows them really well. Huh? How exactly does she expect to get to know someone well?

I think women only lack self esteem because they know nothing about politics or finance and can’t drive or parallel park.

Jessi, I agree that the lack of women in technology is the bigger issue. In my 17 years in the IT field, I have seen the number of women drop dramatically, with very few entering.
I think the field has become less friendly to women, but the pool of female applicants has diminished greatly as well.

However, I also think that attitudes formed at early ages due lead to girls deciding to not focus on math and science, which leads to them not entering technical degree programs….
I am not saying that TV is the only reason, but I do think it is a contributing factor.

“No but playing with yourself in your 30s is.”

I take exception to that, DIBS.
