Episode 576: When Women Stopped Coding : Planet Money : NPR
Kind of a jaw-dropping story about women in computer science. Any idea that men are just 'naturally' more into computers is utterly thrown out the window.
oh sorry, i didn't realize it was cut off. The graph starts in the 60's and ends in in 2014. The drop happens in 1984.What's the timeline on that graph? There was maybe 10 women out of 60 students in my class when I started college, but I got a sense that in the years below me when I was in 2nd/3rd/4th year that the numbers were going up.

Although when I started it was very much a case of guidence councillers shovelling kids in the direction of computer science because it was a "guarateed good job."
Who pushed them ?oh sorry, i didn't realize it was cut off. The graph starts in the 60's and ends in in 2014. The drop happens in 1984.
The story basically says that because home computers were marketed as 'tools', i.e. for boys, more and more girls were pushed out out studying computer science.
It's interesting to bear in mind with all that pathetic gamergate stuff happening right now.
Culturally hegemonic forces propelled by advertising.Who pushed them ?
