<p>[QUOTE="Trish, post: 4749252, member: 75691"]I am really trying to find a time when I felt excluded or uncomfortable in this hobby. Everytime I go to a show or my LCS, I've been helped the same as anyone else in the area. It can be obvious that I may be the only female customer there but I have to check myself as to whether I'm making the distinction or is the male across the table making it. I can't find a time when a line has been crossed or I've been treated like 'the little lady' that doesn't know enough. I HAVE been treated that way in my military life and my engineering career. I've been in female-dominated clubs too, quilting and gardening, and the acceptance is no different.</p><p>I show my coins to female friends and there is no interest, hey, no worries. To each their own. I've seen the amound of females in engineering increase greatly since I went to school. I say give it time and more women will be interested. Just my thoughts and thanks for the interesting posts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
