yeah, the answer is none, because im pretty sure 80-90% of the field is men still :(
(this is a stereotype meme, so it fits, don’t @ me)
I mean, I’m the only woman tech my company has hired ever, so your statement is kinda accurate.
idk what the actual stats are, mostly cuz i don’t really care, and it also depends on where you look, obviously. But i was mostly going off of anecotal experience, and uh, it’s definitely not looking great. But then again a lot of younger women are going to stem fields, more so than IT and admin stuff. Management as well, i might have to look into some actual statistics one of these days to see what’s actually going on lmao.
but it’s definitely one of the things of all time in the CS space right now. It’s still very male centric, for some reason.
My major on college started off with 12 women in my class. At graduation, there were only 3 of us. Dealing with the sexism made most of the women drop out and go into something different. I stuck with it because I wanted to be successful in it out of spite. I see a lot of my former classmates working local retail jobs because they can’t get anything in this field. Honestly feels good to be more successful than the men who looked down on me lol.
