The following is from the ARRL website...I brought over the first
paragraphs as a starting point. The remainder may be read in it's
entirety at www.arrl.org.

My question: Is this even an issue?

Less than .01% of all quilters are male...Is quilting about to
burn out?

Is there some great conspiracy to prevent women from testing? Are
there armed guards at the doors to bar their entrance? If so, I've
never seen them.

I also read the article. I think it was an interesting study but did not
see any attempt to indicate that this was an issue or that anyone was trying
to keep women out. Personally I classify it as a fun but useless bit of
trivia.
