I don't identify as a feminist but at the same time I don't use "feminist" as a pejorative.

Do you think aiming training & mentoring at women will make more of them want to enter engineering? Currently dominate healthcare &education
-
And we find that where women have most freedom of choice & opportunity, they're less likely to choose STEM. Does your experience differ?
-
Interesting. I'm Malaysian, did my B Eng at local uni. Women outnumbered men in some engineering fac.s but more men went into engineering.
-
After graduation my female classmates mostly chose to enter academia to become lecturers. They cite flexi hours + security as reasons.

Yes, choice is a major difference between men & women. Women tend to be more rounded - balance life/work & consider more factors.
-
Whilst men more likely to go for highest paid even if hours & travel & benefits less desirable. Also focus more on things than people.
