Its not conclusive that Lucy is female, the assignation of female sex to the remains has been attacked as sexist as it is based on their smaller size and gracility. I've supervised and taught female staff and pupils since 2001, no problems so far, except for getting laid off at one point so a POs girlfriend could have a job. You obviously haven't noticed that I am not "attacking women" just the people who make the recruiting decisions, in fairness probably middle-aged men who can play Tomb Raider one-handed on the Playstation. I've never had a contract that lasted long enough for anyone inexperienced to get promoted above me. Thanks for the advice diggingthedirt but I already do consultancy and yeah it's okay. In all fairness I've probably done very well in archaeology all things considered, I've made (and spent) quite a lot of money, but it has been a struggle at times. My post was intended to stimulate debate on where archaeology is going and what we can do to improve it, not to make or invite attacks. For the record I look great in a wet t-shirt.
