A female computer science major at Stanford: “Floored” by the sexism

I am a female developer about 6 years older than the author. I absolutely love the end of this article:

> Slowly but steadily, I am learning to see my dresses and high-pitched voice not as hurdles to my success, but as symbols of the perspective I bring to the table.

This conclusion is fantastic and shows a sense of confidence and maturity that I think all professionals of all genders need to project.

It was difficult to have any clue what she was going on about, except that she expects other people to solve her problems for her and do things for her. I wonder what gave her that idea.

Perhaps the difficulty is in you and you should reflect on that?
