OK, here's a question -- take that same breakdown and sort it by median lifetime pay in each field, and also by median yearly salary in each field.<BR/><BR/>Anyone want to be that the male dominated fields wind up largely towards the top?<BR/><BR/>SEXISM!! It's all SEXIST I tell you!!<BR/><BR/>%oP

I studied electrical engineering, and wanted to get a minor in philosophy for two reasons:<BR/><BR/>1) I like philosophy.<BR/>2) To meet girls.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, I hadn't realized how male-dominated philosophy is, so it kind of backfired on that score.<BR/><BR/>I think history is somewhat

When I busy flunking out of Electrical Engineering 20 years ago, the highlight of my day was looking in on the class before diffy q. That class was math for teachers. At OSU the engineering, science and math classes for my major were mostly male.

I really agree with crimson wife's comment and I am really surprised too. I know a guy called "Mark Collard" who provides excellent training and perhaps awaiting for his new book release named 'Count<BR/>Me In: Large Group Activities That Work' perhaps he might a written something in his book regarding this. <BR/><BR/>http://www.inspireyourgroup.com <BR/>www.inspireyourgroup.com/noprops.htm

Thomas,<BR/><BR/>Spot on the nose and leading by a furlong. Just pulling your leg. <BR/><BR/>Fortunately, I don't even think that anyone, male or female aside from a few aging feminist activists really bother getting their knickers in a twist about this. Thankfully, we seem to have outgrown such trivialities.

qt,<BR/><BR/>Not so much a mindfield as a tacit acceptance of that which is true. Men gravitate towards the hard sciences and women toward the soft. This is reflected in the "pay gap".

I&#39;m surprised that history is one o the predominantly male degrees. At my alma mater, all the humanities majors including history were predominantly female. The overall student population was balanced but the men tended to major in engineering, econ, mathematical disciplines, and the physical sciences while the women tended to major in the humanities, bio, and the other social sciences. <BR/>

Not even one comment?<BR/><BR/>Do I detect that we have just entered a minefield? :D
