Engineering, physics, mathematics, astronomy and STEM in general are already appealing to women - it's the bro-centric institutions that are off putting.

Women like R.O have contributed to all those fields since the 1980s .. but then they've been surrounded by others like C.P to take the edge off the boof heads.

My workplace doesn't appear to be having any trouble with that. Jokes like that aren't exactly gender specific.
