And you know that someone who wants to appear smart on the internet would do it for you.

As a test, post a hard math problem that you are "having trouble with" on m.net and see how long it takes to get someone to answer it. I'm sure someone will type out the whole process of achieving the answer.

Alright guys, thanks for all the help!

The host of the blog we're trying to guest post on accepted the rough draft. We're the first ones to accept his challenge and actually be approved, so very much thanks to those who shot out some names for me to research.

When published, I'll post a link if you're interested to see who made the cut.

Thanks again

Here's the final version Just a Car Guy: Finally, a great guest post you can be glad to read, I can be happy to post, and the Classic Garage is proud to present: "Ten Women that will Destroy Your Mechanic’s Ego”.

He took out the "sexy" photos I originally had, and replaced them with the ones you see in the link.

Once again, thanks for all the help.

I raced with Jessie Combs at last years BAJA 1000. Spent a decent amount of time hanging out with her and chatting with her.

After being in the BAJA car for more than 12 hours, she didn't look nearly as good as she does in some of those pictures posted above...

All in all she was super nice, but definitely a bit quirky

After watching Sabine drive in this video, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt!







And what about Susie Stoddart?





They trust her with this, so I think I'd trust her with even more:

I'm torn here in general...

I'm an engineer, and most of the women I am acquainted with who are exceptionally skilled at electrical / mechanical / software engineering are not, on the whole, also qualified to be pinup models.

(The same observation, I assume, is generally extensible to male engineers, although I do not represent myself as being qualified to accurately judge the physical attractiveness of men in this context.)

As a male member of the human species, I am certainly not opposed to the physical objectification of attractive women on general principle. On the other hand, I find it incongruous when I see material such as the above, which attempt to merge claims of exceptional competence in such a skill with "sexy nurse" costumes, bikinis and high-heeled shoes, etc. (eg: I would find it extremely odd to see a photograph of a well-tanned Larry Page or Steven Wozniak lounging on the beach in a thong as covert art in a copy of EE Times magazine.)

Rare does not equal impossible.

I know a handful of hot female engineers from school. sadly they are not currently available via google image search for you.

there was this one girl though. she was in my welding class. came in the first day in a decidedly too-short-for-welding skirt. fuuuuuuuuu. she was also on my intramural volleyball team. my other female friend razzed me about her all the time. I could not defend myself.

I'm pretty sure she was on the OP's blog link.

She even has a retro comic. "Grease Girl and the Hot Rod Bomb!"
