Lots of good woman engineers here in Israel. Also, I worked with woman engineers in the Midwest and Silicon Valley and they were fine.
Our welfare roles are full of women, and others, who would make great engineers.

No surprise there, but the question is whether we drop the standards as needed to get women closer to 50 percent, say less math, or dumbed-down math. Of course whe’d also have to dumb-down the laws of Physics, but I’m not sure the left has figured out a way to do that yet.
It comes down to aptitude. There are many men and women in engineering fields that shouldn’t be there.
“Also, I worked with woman engineers in the Midwest and Silicon Valley and they were fine.”
Granted there weren’t many engineers in the field when I started in 1979. Those who were seemed to divide into two groups; utterly incompetent and amazing-first-rate. There didn’t seem to be much in-between. (I was in-between.)
Incidentally, my mother graduated in the late nineteen thirties (she is now 102) with a degree in physics. She was high up in her class and the only woman.
"Woman Engineers" are incompetent pains in the ass.
One of my daughters is an engineer. I don’t remember her having any fellow female students in her program. Unfortunately, it isn’t something that most females are interested in.
It does not matter if a woman is an engineer--it matters if a woman is an engineer because she is a woman and not because she passed the required classes.
