  Tell LEGO to stop selling out girls! #LiberateLEGO

  While LEGOs can be an excellent tool to teach girls AND boys spatial orientation skills, research shows that gender stereotyping and other factors lead to a gender imbalance in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education and the STEM workforce. Offset your wrongheaded marketing data with facts assembled in "Why So Few? Women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics" -- a research report that you can download for free at http://aauw.org/learn/research/whysofew.cfm from the American Association of University Women. -- Amy Blackwell, AAUW Director-at-Large
