It's okay to pick your major based on how much money you want to make. You know what, **I like making money and that's okay.**

[Lady Engineer @Lady_Engineers]

Also, I'm the breadwinner of my household (aka my kitty+me).

[Lady Engineer @Lady_Engineers]

A lady choosing a major based on how much money she'll be making challenges this idea and makes people *uncomfortable.*

[Lady Engineer @Lady_Engineers]

I think this stems from the fact that men are typically viewed as the head of the household, the breadwinner.

[Lady Engineer @Lady_Engineers]

It's more acceptable for men to pursue a major in order to get money, but when a lady states the same reason she gets some side eye.

[Lady Engineer @Lady_Engineers]

BUT, I felt bad saying this out loud and I rarely did.

[Lady Engineer @Lady_Engineers]

In this week's newsletter: TBH one of the reasons I picked engineering as my major in college was because I wanted to make money.
