microaggressions tumblr
At the company I’m working at this summer, I’m the only intern programmer who is female. Whenever I meet someone new who realizes I’m a programmer, they usually end up commenting at how lucky I am, because “software companies always want to hire women!”
Makes me feel like people in the industry will always see me first for my sex, and second for my technical abilities and accomplishments, if at all.
