So this is a cute picture, but it should be at least mentioned that a lot of the "more women in STEM" push (like the "more students in STEM" push generally) is being directed by the military-industrial complex. That might not be what's happening in this specific picture, and maybe all these girls will grow up to be Delta Airlines pilots ferrying happy people from a visit to Grandma to a well-deserved vacation, but I can't not think about it whenever one of these "MORE GIRLS IN STEM" posts shows up somewhere. Citations Needed did a good podcast about it a while back. https://medium.com/@CitationsPodcst/episode-65-how-empire-uses-feminist-branding-to-sell-war-and-occupation-5d3f189bc4a1
