When I read this I remember an episode from Ramayana

Hanuman meets Janaki; he offers to lift her and fly off

For this Sita replies “ Do you think I can not destroy this Lanka by my mere looks? The reason for my not doing is that I expect Rama to rescue me; otherwise he will be under rated

Now read this introduction from the article “An Educator's Guide to Gender Bias Issues “
Technologies should be equally accessible to male and female students. Yet, as girls enter adolescence, large numbers of them tend to lose interest in science, math, and computer science. Girls are narrowing the gender gap in science and math, but not in technology (Closing the Gender Gap: Gender Gaps Fact Sheet, 1997). Overall girls' test scores and course enrollments have risen in these areas, with the exception of computer science. In order to attempt to address this issue, the cause of the discrepancies between males and females in computer use must be established. Several issues need to be addressed:
What is gender bias?
What evidence is there that a technology gender gap and gender bias exist?
Why are girls in their adolescent years losing interest in computers?
What are the differences and similarities between how males and females perceive and use technology?
What technologies are out there? For whom are they intended?
What role do parents, educators, and manufacturers have in encouraging technology use among females?
By addressing these questions, a better understanding of the gender gap in technology can be attained and solutions to closing the gender gap can be studied. While progress has been made to encourage girls in math and science, parents, teachers, and manufacturers have just begun to look at girls' use of computers and computer related programs.

When the male cats close their eyes, will the world become darker?

Dear males…please give way to females; females will do it better
