Re: Are all girl FIRST team counterproductive to the philosophy of FIRST?
i am a girl, and i agree. however, i know from personal experiences that girls have gotten less respect on our team just because we are girls. I have fought for it, and now, after what the 11th week of the season, we are finally treated equal. so i can see the point were they are promoting girls in engineering fields and trying to gain that respect (trust me, starting an all girls team just to get some respect for all the girls on our team has crossed my mind a few times) but it is counter productive as to that first is for everyone
