3.14159 Ways to Annoy a Female Engineer

1. Speak in masculine pronouns only, especially to describe teams you've never worked with before, future hires, and prospective clients. Assume your female co-worker is an exception to the general rule that women are not engineers, mechanics, executives, salespeople, or people at all.

2. Narrow your eyes and tilt your head noncommittally anytime your female co-worker makes a recommendation. Then slightly modify and re-pose the recommendation in your own words. Wait for the rest of your team to agree with your terrific recommendation. 

3. After you've held a meeting to discuss an important issue with your female co-worker's peers, brief her with a "quick chat". If your female co-worker is accidentally excluded from an email chain, forward the emails along instead of replying all to add her. Call your female co-worker's manager, program manager, desk neighbor, or chiropractor when you have a question they might be better able to answer than your female co-worker herself about her own work.
