Skirts and Fatigues

I was sitting here, going over my other blog (Smear on the Wall), when I realized that I couldn't make my fiancé suffer through my posts about women's issues. Hence, Skirts and Fatigues was born. This blog is going to be here to address women's issues, ranging from health articles to popular movements and trends. I'm sure that this blog will evolve over time as both society and myself evolve, and it'll all be a welcome change.

As said in my description of myself at the side, I am going through school to be a robotics and automation technician, and then hopefully to be an electrical engineer. As you can imagine the male influence on my life has been rather extravagant, as the majority of my friends growing up were male, not to mention that my older brother and I have had a pretty good bond as far as siblings go. My robotics class consisted of approximately six girls in a class of over two hundred people in the first semester, and then a populace of four girls with one hundred twenty guys in the second semester.
The reason that I am reiterating this information is simply because I want to demonstrate how I plan to integrate two different worlds into one, while still addressing the differences in the sexes. Why can't women talk about the next huge technical advances while still admire a beautiful dress and matching pair of shoes? This blog isn't about woman power, but rather life itself as a woman.
