Necnill16 karma
I got told the same when I said I wanted to take Systems (basically wood/metalwork with a side of programming and engineering). Some adults making vague noises that I'd be unhappy in a boys' class, then them taking the subject (and option for me to enroll) off the table. I found my way into neuro, but sitting learning how to do fMRIs, asking a question about the role of a brain area in the task we were doing, and getting no response but a 'compliment' about my choice in tights... Took the sheen off it all, really.

When you looked back at the earth from the lunar surface, did it look bigger near the horizon, like the moon does when we're on earth?

I wrote my own MP (Labour) about this issue, too. Her response strongly implied that my support of net neutrality meant that I was looking to enable paedophiles. The level of ignorance about net neutrality, our rights to free speech and the value of free, uncensored information is a common factor across parties. Any party that finally grasps this properly will get a tonne of loyal votes, I'm sure.
