I just don't believe in this "social conditioning" thing. I've seen absolutely no evidence for it in my life. My sister grew up with three older brothers and we became a programmer, an electrician, and a mechanic. Right from birth she was surrounded by computers, electronics, engines and gears. She is not interested and will not be interested no matter how hard someone like you tries to make her interested. She is instead an artist and a wonderful one. She just did what she wanted to do. I've had intimate relationships with more than twenty women in my life. I've had friendships and professional relationships with many times more. I'd hazard to guess that my experience with women is way above average for this forum. I've not met a single one who told me they really wanted to be a scientist/engineer/programmer etc but found that society didn't let them. In fact, I find the contrary to be true: the ones that have chosen those fields were offered more encouragement than I ever was. Just let people do what they want to do. |
