    I don’t think it’s mostly gender… Programmers aren’t usually those that have won the genetic lottery, I can count on one hand the amount of drop dead women engineers I’ve met in my field, they definitely exist, but they are super rare.

    • If we leave out fields that revolve around beauty and adjust for intelligence required in the specific field of work i am not sure, if beauty is actually negatively correlated with engineering.

      I don’t see a higher rate of beautiful people on the train to work, than i see at work. I just see more on the train, because there is more people overall.
