The odds are really freaking good, and only some of the goods are odd. Sure there are a bunch of socially awkward engineers, but because of the sheer scarcity of women in the field, if you are a single female you can have first pick of a lot of really nice available guys.

I thought the days were past when women only got jobs to find husbands, seems not!

Attaching a sexist comment to a post about the challenges of being a female engineer is not cute or helpful.

I think that post is trying to point out the irony of the fact that the same author was promoting the female stereotype of "just getting a job to find a husband" in her other post, while lamenting the gender issues associated with being a woman in computer science in this post.

Exactly. She's the sort of person who will use being female to her advantage when she can - and when not, she'll use it as an excuse.

Me, all I care about is the work, same as everyone else who's not got an agenda of their own.
