* boys rule * Its because science is sexist * In the past, science (math chemistry, etc.) was regarded as a male field of endeavor by males even though there were examples such as Marie Curie to disprove the stereotype. Even today teachers and guidance councellors often discourage girls from taking the Maths and Science stream of secondary schools subjects that would allow them to enter the science maths and engineering courses in university. To have famous examples you have to have agoodly number of female participants in these areas. Until now thy numbers have een low, but these numbers are increasing. Women have been scientists as long as men have been scientists. See http:www.astr.ua.edu/4000WS for a list of famous women of science. There were times in human history that women were encouraged to study technical subjects.
