Guest TheLibrarian Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Give me a woman with a little more meat on her bones To a connoisseur, there isn't such a thing as too much or too little. Unless you count conjoined twins maybe.

TechMonkey Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Hmmm, that could have been awkward! I looked along my tabs & saw "Here come the girls! - Page 3".

witch Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 There's more than this - some just don't want to identify themselves as female because of the flak
solitaire89 Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 There's more than this - some just don't want to identify themselves as female because of the flak It's interesting that you say that - it's discussion my OH and I often have. He's in IT too, and maintains that there's no "discrimination" (in " " because it's too strong a word) against women in IT, but I don't agree. My experiences have been very much that as soon as I meet anyone that comes in to look at our kit, they always start to put things in simple terms. To the extent that I've even had one guy show me a BIOS battery and ask me if I'd ever seen one before..... Do other women get this sort of reaction at all, or is it just beacuse of my blonde hair?
LosOjos Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I've even had one guy show me a BIOS battery and ask me if I'd ever seen one before..... Your response should have been, "I'm a woman, have you ever seen one before?" Seriously though, that's disgraceful. I think the 'discrimination' isn't so much against women in IT, but against anybody who doesn't seem like a social misfit. If you don't meet peoples expectations of what an IT bod should look/act like (greasy, spotty, unable to hold eye contact etc.), then they seem to presume you can't possibly know what you're talking about... EDIT: Re-read my post and want to point out that is NOT my opinion of IT bods, just what I perceive to be non-IT bods general expectation 1
solitaire89 Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I agree - people do have a steriotyped image of what I should look like. As for the battery guy, I would have made some comment, but he was the son of the boss of our (now ex-) support company. I didn't think it wise to!
