I'm confused. Are we talking about where I'm from — or the UK or maybe even the US now?

My/the OP point is that I'm from a very sexist country (not the UK, not the US, a small place in the Levant) and we have "better" gender parity (if not girls > boys) at STEM. I explained why that is and two other women from equally sexist places added their agreement.
