I must be an exception then, because I got into computers at a young age and was mostly self-taught because the few computer classes at Altoona were crap. And, in my CS class, two girls sit together in the back, while me and another girl sit up front but on separate sides of the room, surrounded by guys. Of course, the first day of class Jess was sitting in the area I'm sitting in now, and I tried to sit by her, but after a few class periods she moved to the back and I was just too stubborn to move XD

However, in my calc class, the three other girls always sit together near the front. I sit in the back, all alone XD

Frankly, though, the lack of estrogen doesn't bother me so much, probably because throughout elementary/middle/high school most of my friends were guys anyway. Of course, most of those guy friends were gay, but that's another thing all togther XD
