Why dwell on sex profiling? Why not age, education, IQ etc. I expect the scores for the sundial mailing list and sundial societies would be high in these categories as well. It doesn't matter as the list and the societies self select. If you are interested in sundials, join the group and participate. We all learn as much from the newby questions as the sage advice. Without this broad spectrum and diversity, we are just a bunch of old guys talking to ourselves. No Thanks! We should aspire to be three years old again, continuing to ask "why?" but now we can be rewarded by these discussions. We are no longer frustrated by the adult response "Just because, that is the way it is."
"Cogito ergo sum" has no other qualifiers. Regards, Roger Bailey From: Marcelo Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2011 3:12 PM To: Sundial List Subject: Where are the women? I've just noticed that, as long as I remember, there is no female participation in this mailing list. As I study in the Astronomical and Geophysical Institute at the University of Sao Paulo, where we lack not of the gracious presence of women - there are more men here, but women are expressive too - I strange their absence from our astronomical inquiries and conversations. Maybe there is some truth in that old cliché of men being more prone to math and abstration than them? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/sundial
