      The gendered outliers are health professions, public administration, computer science, education, engineering and psychology. Why is only one of them a disaster?

      I was speaking only as a computer scientist and comparing to other science & engineering fields. The precipitous drop in CS is stunning. When I started in CS back in the 1970s, there were a lot more women in computer science.

      These data don't indicate there's been a drop in women in computer science. (That may be the case but it's not what this graph shows. This graph shows percentage, not total numbers.)

      Yes; because the field has been growing. But why shouldn't the percentage be closer to 51%, since that is the population percentage of women? And back in the 70s the percentage was more along those lines.

      Because it looks (by the graph you shared) that women are choosing other fields — and doing very well in Health, Education, Business Administration, and so on. If they're choosing other fields in such high numbers, it stands to reason the percentage in CS will not be 51%.

      A surprising low percentage of Americans enter technical fields. For a variety of reasons (economic productivity, national defense), we need more Americans to go into engineering and computer science. I would be happy to poach them from business administration, for example.

      I agree, but as long as MBAs are getting paid more for less challenging work, smart people who are equally inclined to study both will go for MBAs. This is a matter of setting incentives at a regulatory level.
