Yes, there are female geeks! Fewer than male, but there are. The crucial part is socialization. Many girls and later women are driven away from technical stuff and computers and cars and so on with such nice words from society like "this is mens work.." "girls should play with dolls". I could post a long list here. Thus it is a parents task: Encourage your girls on technology, help them, when society does its best to discourage them. And by the way, don't forget your boys. Teach them the right things, too. Gentleness and good behavior is not a girl thing, but a human one that everybody likes.
OK people, this is serious: Ethidium Bromide is dangerous!!! Please do not try genetic experiments at home. Especially when children are around. There are strict rules in laboratories how to deal with this stuff. You can be hurt severely. In my opinion the whole topic of PCR at home isn't funny at all.
