Help with a Smile: Molly Wood on Women and Technology

Molly Wood on Women and Technology

Follow the link below for a great blog post written by one of my favorite technology journalists, Molly Wood, regarding her minority status as a woman covering technology news.

But the geeky girl-worship doesn’t change some of the fundamental truths about being female and covering technology. You’re still thought of as vaguely alien, even if you’re beloved. No technical mistake will go unpunished, because you’re expected to not know what you’re talking about. And there’s never a time when you’re not being parsed more for your looks than your knowledge. And then, frankly, I’m still a woman in corporate America, and that’s got its own set of enraging double standards, uncomfortable boys club moments, and the nagging feeling that I’m never doing quite enough.
