There's never been many women in technical subject in Western countries. I think this stems from the traditional view that some jobs are for men, and some jobs are for women.

That's why we now have campaigns here in the UK to make girls in primary and secondary schools interested in these subjects and to make the message that girls can study anything they want. The same goes for boys and 'girly subject' though the push seems less visible.
