Re: Why girls ARE joining our team...

My team has about 15 girls give or take alil more this year! We started off last year w/ about 9 an this year we have so many more. I know from my school most girls dont care about robotics an think its "a guy thing" but if you look at it in the perspective as jobs when you get older, there are a number of females who do PR work, who finance, who design websites, who program, an those who are engineers! I think some girls are to chicken to get dirty and dont wanna do the building they think robotics is all about. Or maybe they have the perspective its to nerdy. Me, i could care less if i'm called a nerd, but if u look at a number of the teams an people you meet at competitions they are not nerds, or geeks, an have great personalities! They are normal people who enjoy doing things that will get them far in life. If someone doesnt want to take the time see what robotics is all about then they should not talk bad about FIRST and the people in it! We are normal high school students working together, an if you ask me i've never had an issue w/ any team or FIRSTer in my career of being involved with the FIRST program no matter where i went. I am proud of all the girls involved in FIRST and it shows we can do anything if we put our mind to it! To all the girls involved with FIRST way to go an keep up the good work!!!

By the way sorry to bring back an old thread, I wanted to let my opinon on this out there. Take it however you please.
