    You could go gay. That would open up a lot of back doors

    Shitty jokes aside. I’m actually surprised the projector says 2020. There were quite a few girls in my class in 2019

      America is a weird place, Europe is more balanced in general. Back in 2000 we had more of a 60%-40% split in computer science.

        Nah, it’s definitely a thing in the Netherlands. I got my degree a couple years ago and we only had a few girls.

        I’m guessing this picture wasn’t taken in America, given what looks like Cyrillic text on the projector. Could be wrong, though.

      I am gay and have a master’s in computer science. Believe me, there wasn’t much for me in class either.

      Tbh I’m not supprised I graduated in 2015 with a networking degree and there were 3 girls in my class group (3 or 4 courses with a lot of the same classes) which was about 150-200 students.

      Conversely the nursing classes that were in the same building those numbers were flipped
