Re: FEMALES!

Just a bit of background info first
Here in systemetric, there is only 2 years of students (we are based at a "6th form college, basically we have students who are 15/16/17/18 - 2 year groups of "u6" and "l6").
We are basically in 2 groups . Geeks and Non Geeks (traditional thing you understand) .
this year and last year the team captain has been a Female. Last year she was a student who had skipped a year for being so clever (a member of the "Geek"). . . and this year the team leader/president/(person who shouts loudest ) is a non geek and has organised the fundraising etc very well. Even though last year there was only 4 girls and there is the same this year (2 in each year ). we do try and encourage more females to join...
Anyway
Of the 2 girls in the U6, one is a geek and one is el presidente. The geeky one did many things last year including the electronics wiring. . . and is currently head of CaD team. I can't think of any incident that she has been treated unfairly, just a couple when the males have . . .
