Maybe it's just me, but I'd be more concerned with kicking ass than how many other girls there are doing what you do.

Hey, don't give away the secret of the patriarchy!

Maybe she feels that having an understanding of the demographics of the industry she's working in (and possibly making contacts with whom she can discuss issues she imagines they will have experienced) will help her to kick ass.

Echoing a the grandparent post, I'd spend time worrying about the demographics of my customers, not the industry.

I dunno. I spend almost all of my social and work time with men. It's a side effect of what I do and what my hobbies are. But man is it fun sometimes to kick it with some other girls.

I'm sure she has enough time to kick ass and also see what other girls are up to.
