My daughter (a straight A student) came home so frustrated yesterday. In engineering class she was placed into a group w/ 2 boys who completely ignored her input. After struggling for 20 mins they then decided to use her idea & claim it as their own.
A story as old as time.

Personally, all male teams in undergrad engineering were the worst & unworkable: projects left till the last day, nuisance chit chat without any material progress, disorganised, bickering over petty things. I got the worst feedback /marks from them & asked to be in mixed groups.

Why not more assertive? They were interested in what you had to say or they wouldn’t have invited you. Men speak while women sit around and wait to be asked.
