Engineer Sex (Not What You Are Thinking)

Today for engineers week, I had an opportunity to talk to freshmen Purdue engineering students at lunch. It quickly reminded me of my introduction to engineering class at UConn. How everyone looked so young (I still do!) and most not very confident on which engineering they were going to end up with. It's quite interesting how similar people are even though I went to a school more than 800 miles away. Like how the freshmen talked about future professors and classes, most of them being outrageous stories about what professors do or how hard a class going to be. Then, you always have the student that thinks she/he knows everything about engineering. But one thing can be seen immediately at any engineering school/group, the gender ratio.
As everyone knows that the females are the majority of engineering! HAHA, how funny am I? You can go to any engineer event, besides a female engineering sorority/group event, and I can guarantee that it'll be sausage fest. At lunch today, this was the case but there were more females than I expected. But as always, there were a group of females at a table with no males. That's how engineers work right? (Like middle school?) But I'll put blame on the women for no logical reasoning! (They have cooties!) Most people would probably blame it on the lack of social skills from the male engineers. And this is completely false!
Then you always have the sparse female in a group of males, who usually hate girl drama and they'll be the first to tell you. Or she could be there because the boyfriend (Or a potential one). Or maybe there's something about Mary?
Then, between various types of engineering there are different gender ratios. From personally experience (My class basically), it probably went like, higher to lower ratio: Biomedical (Dominating the others), Chemical, Mechanical, Computer Science, Civil/Environmental, and finally Electrical. I'm sure this is similar to universities around this nation/world.
I went through electrical engineering so there weren't many women, the couple (2) females were pretty awesome. They had to deal with the crazy amounts of testosterone all the time! I can only feel bad for them especially with what male engineers (Most times they just say whatever is on their mind) say sometimes... As electrical engineers, we knew we had the lowest ratio of females, but that did not deter us from sticking with the best engineering out there! Feel free to comment on this if you think I'm wrong.
I remember during our senior year, the first day of Communication Systems class, an attractive female walks in late. Since it's our fourth year together as an electrical engineering class, we knew everyone in our class really well. So, we were very much confused (Giving "What the heck is happening" glances to each other) and then she is handed the last syllabus. After a few minutes, she just gets up and leaves (With the last syllabus that someone needed!). Then, the entire class laughs. It could have been we knew she didn't belong in the class or knowing how confused/overwhelmed she was with the topics the professor was going through. Then, one of our fellow electrical engineers said "Well, there goes our hope!". I'm pretty sure everyone burst out laughing including the professor. This is how we knew it was going to be awesome year.
You know the ratio is bad when professors make jokes about the lack of females. Only in electrical engineering...(Maybe it's just too hard? Maybe it's just impossible to deal with such an awesome group of electrical engineers?) You would think more females would choose the top engineering discipline, electrical, not just for the practical knowledge but for the chance to meet stunning and intelligent men like me! (I swear I'm not biased at all!)
While this post makes it seem like it's a big deal, it really isn't. All engineers will have fun no matter the conditions. But only a female engineers would fall in love with guys that say:
"Our love is like dividing by zero…. you cannot define it"
or the more inappropriate: "You make me NP-Hard"
