Today, I realised being the only female engineering student sucks. I have exactly one friend, because everyone else is too busy staring at my boobs to have a conversation. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, while at training with several of my co-workers, I realized I was the only woman. The only thing one of them said to me the entire day was "DUDE!" while staring at my chest as I took my coat off in the morning. FML
Today, it was still easier for me to get an engineering PhD than it is to get a girlfriend. FML
Today, I lost all of my male friends at work. Why? The new girl has my same interests and a prettier face. FML
Today, I was the only girl in gym class who couldn't lift the weight, and the only one to fart multiple times during the attempt. FML
Today, I found out that the engineers I work with believe that a woman with an engineering degree working in an engineering company is apparently equivalent to a "secretary for engineers." I am that woman. FML
Today, the only girl I've ever had eyes for said she can't find any good single men, all while sitting next to me. FML
Today, I've had to accept that, despite my efforts to stay in touch with the few friends I made at college, I have zero friends. FML
Today, well into my second year at university, I still haven't made a single friend. FML
Today, I realized that I'm at the age that whenever I mention a friend of the opposite gender, my family's first response is asking whether that friend is single. I've already accepted no one will want a pathetic freak like me, so their poking around what few friends I have makes it awkward. FML
Today, I was hanging out with friends of the opposite sex, which is the norm for me as I don’t get along with most women. Every time I spoke, I got ignored or spoken over, and they kept asking me what was wrong. Ugh, men. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Only one guy is clever enough for you to not notice.

Tell them that you used to be a man. Works everytime.

I know that feel, brah. Im one of the six engineering girls at my uni. Ugh. Nasty guy jokes are becoming the norm for me, and most of my friends are guys.

Op, think of it as a good deed you're doing. It has been scientifically proven than staring at boobs is good for your health. True story.

Learn to laugh a bit? I was in technologies and I was the only female in a group of guys. If I caught them staring at my boobs I'd call them out on it in a silly fashion, ie "oh hey, and I always thought my eyes were on my face!" or "you seem awfully fascinated with my shirt... Are you wondering if they have it in your size?". Guys, especially younger guys tend to be a bit hormone driven. Nothing personal, and half the time they aren't even conscious of it. If you relax and have fun a bit, you will probably find a whole group of very loyal friends. Geeks can be a bit awkward, but when the chips are down they are there for you.

Your eyes are on your face but your nipples are on your boobs.

Beautifully said.

Men can't help themselves, but to stare at beautiful women. I would take it as a compliment if I was a woman. Do you watch "The Big Bang Theory"? It's hilarious.

Congrats on the schooling choice, but regardless of intelligence guys will be guys. The novelty of your particular set of boobs will wear off soon enough and they will be more interested in what you bring to the table as far as your mind.

Actually, if they are good engineering students, they are actually looking at your boobs and figuring mass vs. distribution, load factors and support. All important when trying to build bridges, tall buildings, support structures,etc... Or they could just be staring at your nipples pointing at them.

Don't forget to calculate the average rate of change in Kennetic energy and factor that in. We do not want a mechanical failure to occur.
