Alarming?!

What's all the fuss about?

They are not ringing the alarm bells to hire more male nurses are they?

More male waiters?
How about male fashion designers?

Every visited offices in uhm...say Ted Baker? 80% female...what's alarming about this is beyond me...


It's not that women are not technically able, they are simply naturally inclined to ENJOY other fields.

Ask most teenaged females if they want to learn computer programming, forget the fact most teenaged boys will be put off by the idea...

Why are women out numbered in the field of math at least 10 to 1 (or worse)

Does that mean we urgently need more female mathematicians??

SHIVER ME TIMBERS AND RUFFLE ME FEATHERS, WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH FEMALE PIRATES ARRRRRGH!!!!

Rampant anti-sexism

Last I checked, there were laws dealing with sexism and hiring.

I personally think men and women are different. So maybe a common difference is that women don't like this type of work and men do.

I don't think this is an emergency or disaster. Saying that there isn't a near 50% workforce comprised of women being a disaster is like saying that less than 2% of men breastfeed.

sigh

most women do not want to work in the IT industry.... there I said it!

and it has nothing to do with anything except the simple fact they do not like IT and do not wanna work in that kind of area... just like I do not want to work in the "marketing" or "human resources" which as far as I know is women and "gay" biased.. (what every time I speak to an HR GUY he has that funny sounds like a girl sound"
