Re: Are all girl FIRST team counterproductive to the philosophy of FIRST?
Your point of having an all-boys team disregards the status quo. Currently there are very very few all-girls teams, and even co-ed teams have a huge disparity in the number of boys and number of girls. Having an all-girls team does not imply that girls are inferior, but rather suggests that being a female in a STEM field is difficult because of the discrimination that females fact. This does not say anything about girls but a lot about males and their attitudes towards women in STEM.
