On the other hand, I think women are free to do whatever they want,
and if they want to be booth babes, that's fine.  If they want to
argue among themselves about whether it's more socially appropriate
to be computer nerds or booth babes, that's fine too.  Just don't
expect me to take a side.  I've seen women who are very effective 
as human lampposts, and I've seen brilliant women who are uglier 
than Abigail.
