A female computer science major at Stanford: “Floored” by the sexism
Well she writes like a junior because she is.  But the main points she makes - subtle sexism regarding capability in the face of equivalent effort - are certainly observable and do ring true.<p>When I see articles like this (and the issue of sexism in computing does pop up quite often) I usually agree.  It is there.  But what can be done?  I myself have been a disgusting example of a male engineer at times.  And as much as I would love to permanently erase any male/female alteration of my behavior in a professional context, the reality is I do not become asexual when I go to work.  I'm still a man.  What to do?
