He could see the framed degrees and realised she was a very clever woman. The sad fact that most didn't see a place for women in science since Weird knew this. Most scientists you read about in the paper or see on the television were men. Gloria and her roommate, Judith were dancers as well it seemed. No wonder Ziggy wanted to set the bassist up with her. She seemed very talented indeed.
"It's a shame that. The whole men in science thing. But I suppose the same could be said for women rockstars. You don't see many of them either."
Weird knew this. There were women singers yes, but not usually in the field of rock. It was still a very male dominated area. There was a macho image associated with going near bare chested on stage wielding a guitar and making lots of noise. Weird himself didn't go bare chested like Ronno but he could see the appeal for attracting women. It wasn't very fair for women who wanted a chance at the limelight though in that regard.
"You're a very clever lass, Gloria. When Ziggy asked for us to meet---I didn't know what to expect."
