I think you're missing half the point of my post. The bias I experienced was at public school. NASA is a government funded organization. I expect my government to operate without bias.
I see where you're coming from, but it certainly isn't a windmill worth tilting in my book. A few female scientists and engineers chatting via Skype with little girls is a good thing, but maybe offering a similar opportunity for boys wouldn't be out of the question. I think Val put it very well
I think there are two different problems here that are being conflated. One is bias in hiring and the other is bias in expectations. The NASA mentoring program is addressing bias in expectations.
