Hi fellow female college educated programmer. Isn't it sad to be such a repressed and brainwashed little feminist robot that we think there's something better than the rat race waiting for us?

Indeed. You need to attend some NOW meetings to get your head straight.

If I'm reading this thread correctly, you're being oppressed by patriarchal societal norms, but you're to stupid to know it.

I could be wrong though. I have no MBA, and I'm just a stupid engineer.

The Marxist term was "false consciousness" and the NOW types liked to engage in "consciousness raising" to overcome it.
One wonders why the 60s feminists felt compelled to use Marxist terminology.
Could be most of the leaders were closet Marxists seeing themselves as the revolutionary vanguard possessing what Thomas Sowell termed the Vision of the Annointed.

I just thought as another stupid engineer I'd say "hello".
