I'm going to say that I'd honestly theorize there really are gender differences at play in the way men and women think, and men tend to fall more into the engineering mindset. (trial and error, "figuring things out", wondering how things work, the whole scientific method methodology)
I am not in any way saying this in a BAD way. There are plenty of great female engineers, and there are plenty of dumb male engineers. But _as a whole_ I suspect that there are real "physical" differences at play in the way men and women think.
