Re: How did this happen!?!?! 7 new girls in a team of ~20

Our team is all girls and pretty solid. We work well together. What I am annoyed by is the fact that people linger over this more than our actual performance. We got some publicity at our regional that, in my opinion, should have gone to other teams. Jak, you are right. If a competent and interested girl wants to join your team, good for her. But uninterested or worse, inocompetent, girls should not be pressured or allowed to join simply for the sake of having female members. I can't wait for the day when it isn't so special that a team has new girls, when the fact that they have new people is more important..
