> I was a student in computer science degree. During parties, or when meeting new people, there is always this phase where people introduce themselves and ask what that do/study. I had multiple occasions to tell European women the truth: that I'm studied CS. The response generally ranged from meh to disgust. That include mockery and conversation that turned very short.

I had the same experience in the UK...this was back in 2000 though. I do think things would be different these days, as people generally have a better understanding of CS.

In my year, there were only 2 women studying CS. They both went on to do non computer-related jobs (not my fault I swear!).
