I get what you're saying. Tech courses are important for American students of all sexes, including male, female AND the yet-to-be-determined. I say this tongue-in-cheek to highlight my chagrin at the 'tolerance' being taught for gays in the lower grades!
I guess the Ivy League president who said women weren't mentally up to the tech courses didn't know about the other side of the coin. Curriculums need work, across the board. I think they get more attention in colleges and if we had fewer liberal profs we'd be on the right track!
If you are referring to Larry Summers, that is NOT what he said about women. He merely dared to raise a valid question for consideration; did not render a personal definitive judgement on any person or group.
