where did you get these facts from exactly? because they're all made up.

> teachers, parents, advisors all too often say tech is not for women.

let us know who does this so we can shame them. btw, some parents might be doing this but they're terrible parents. but no teacher or advisor would ever do this. please don't sully these hardworking people.

> daughters are rarely given a computer at the same as sons

rarely? I would dispute that.

...

> nursing is yet another underpaid pink collar job

maybe they're underpaid (I think devs are underpaid too) but it is a very good paying job that doesn't need a 4-year degree and $100k in student loans. and to top it all off they're unionized, have benefits that would make you drool, and many can retire at a young age with full benefits. it's a well sought after job and a way for many people to move up economically.
