Do you think that female brains work differently to males? In other words, we might look at a problem and solve it differently to men, bringing knew ideas that perhaps male scientist have not thought of and vice versa. If this is true, I think its important to have a balance between female and male scientists, and it makes me wonder if the rate at which our knowledge of science had developed would differ, if women had more of an opportunity to study science in the past. i.e would we have discovered things quicker?

I agree with you about getting a balance, 07stoombs. Things have changed a lot since the 19th century so many we’ll reach that balance soon.
