That clan, the chamber of academia, especially in engineering and technology-related fields, remains in the domain of its male members who set the rules for the society of learned men. Asserting your place in this demanding community, with constant evaluation/self-evaluation, is hard. It is even harder if you are a woman -sometimes because of obvious physiological differences but more often because of less visible society-defined roles.
