I'm going to keep this very short and sweet.

Why aren't there many girls in robotics? Simple, a lot just don't know that there is more to robots than going at pieces of aluminum all day. I think a lot of people miss the point that the great thing about FIRST and robotics is that it's just as important to realize that you don't want to do engineering as to realize that you do. All girls will have their reasons, and whether its "no i don't like getting dirty" to "i don't like math and science", there are also a boatload of reasons non-engineering related that show that they can do robotics as well.
