Re: Girls in Engineering- Comic that explains it all
I was given and played with a Cabbage Patch Kid when I was younger. By 2nd grade, the guidance counselor had diagnosed me with "the knack". By that age, I knew I wanted to make the machines that made the toys. I am sure my dad wasn't thrilled that his son was playing with a doll, but he never told me otherwise. I did get to work on tractors more than my sisters, but that was only because I was more interested (both of them had to learn how to operate the tractors, bailers, mowers...). I am not saying marketing doesn't play into the genderfication of toys and thus careers, but I will say it isn't the only thing.
