    Yes, yes, yes. Absolutely.



    The moment more men start engaging with the issue of gender inequality in engineering is the moment we will start to see real change happening. BAE is a good example of this. They have some senior men who are actively trying to address the problem, and beginning to see results.



    Like it or not, the majority of senior engineers are male, so it is important that they identify with groups such as the IET Women's Network.



    Having a support network such as this is great, but most of the issues discussed on here are not women's issues. They are everyone's issues. So we should welcome male members with open arms.
