Um, is this sarcastic? Maybe because Instagram millionaires are about as common as sports millionaires? Maybe because beauty fades, and doesn’t make for much of a career past age 35? Maybe because not every woman is conventionally beautiful? Maybe because some of us couldn’t care less about fashion or makeup? Maybe because we enjoy technical work? Maybe because some of us are damn good at it? Maybe because we enjoy producing value with - and being valued for - our brains instead of our bodies? “Look at the salaries pro football players make. I don’t understand why any man would choose STEM when better paying gigs are available to them.” |

If you enjoy it, that's good. But not everyone enjoys it and that's why STEM has lower praticipation from females and that's what we are discussing here.
I didn't say millionaire anywhere. Many modeling gigs pay more than entry level median salaries in STEM.
It's about efforts vs reward. People in STEM require years of education compared to posting a product review on Instgram which doesn't even require a high school certificate.
Don't compare it to Pro football players either which is very risky and requires years of training and money.
