16.000 members.. any female modellers among them?
Only Olha Batchvarov that I know of (one of the best!).
Why is this? Probably there are 'historical' reasons, that have to do with traditional gender roles etc.
He goes to sea and she stays home and spends her free time with needle work.
But that certainly can not be the case anymore?
In 'real' sailing/boating things have changed a lot over the last 40 years or so.
More and more women sail for leisure or work on ships professionally.
But here, women mostly appear in lame jokes about 'admirals', or asked to sow sails for us..
I seriously wonder if there are any ladies out here, and if anyone has a theory why it -still- is what it is..
