I'm just a female expat stationed in Middle East trying to survive as the only female engineer in my team. Occasionally I rant against men.

Oh, I do too. I also make sexist jokes about them.

Rather focus on how to increase the number of women in engineering, by being involved in training and mentoring. Twitter doesn't change life

Twitter doesn't change life, no. Its just a good place to share ideas, essays, books etc which change attitudes which change life.

In real life I;m focused on tackling two problems affecting UK women. Unprosecuted honour crime & FGM & disempowerment in universities.
