I knew a couple of people in high school that went on to engineering school, and they both were practically social retards. Wuz up with that?
What do engineering schools do for that? Got a plan to fix the freak show?Do engineers really use their personalities for birth control? I've heard that.?
Actually depending on the area of the country some women find engineers to represent a smart and financially attractive mate. Not that we make a lot of money - but it is steady work. I've always liked the nerd aspect and play it up big time. And not everyone can achieve the degree so it is pretty nice ego boost. That and I've always attracted hot women regardless. People skills may be limited generally but it is not like that across the board. Yep! Hotties like engineers - at least the keeper hotties do. The shallow ones will always go for shallow dudes.Do engineers really use their personalities for birth control? I've heard that.?
I personally did a damn good job of enjoying Austin as Mechanical Engineer at UT. Life has been fun and exciting and my wife is smoking hot. Kids will be another year or so. Really though, the stereotype comes from engineers acting as fact based problem solvers. When a girl says she's sad cause her heel broke on her new shoes then the engineer doesn't say ';awww that's so sad, I'm sorry your heel broke'; which is exactly what she wants you to say. No, the engineer says ';that is a tall heel with a narrow base, it's not surprising that it broke given your weight and the variable forces experienced while traversing rough terrain'; In this instance the girl heard, ';duh, your fat'; - Instant birth control.
Took me years to learn commiseration, thank god I'm hot.
First of all, hook em to the previous narcissist.
Engineers have notoriously bad people and communication skills. However, if you are an engineer who has developed these skills - you can quickly rise to the top - using the stereotype to your advantage!
Without stereotyping, often engineers tend to relate to things better than people; while people in the social sciences are not as turned on by mechanical concepts. Still, I went to unnamed engineering school in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was some fine party school. Tho, does the fact that when I went there in the mid 60's, there were over two thousand men and only a dozen women attending tell you anything? Thank goodness, that ratio has changed.
