If art is the expression of experience and everyone admits that gender and race affect experience, then it stands to reason that their work could be different. We consider ourselves inhabitants of many worlds and can appear in any one we wish.

...AND THE I.T. INDUSTRY [from the GG]
The number of women using the internet is huge, but the number behind the scenes isn't. We received a bunch of stats from a GG supporter in Canada, where only 25% of university computer tech grads are female, 50% less than received degrees15 years ago. One problem: girls don't get info about I.T. jobs in high school, especially about jobs dealing with hardware.
I.T. GIRLS AND OTHER SCIENCE GIRLS
In 1993 15% of computer professionals were women, Today it’s only 20%.
In 1993 MIT awarded 61 Ph.D’s in computer science and electrical engineering; 10 of those went to women.
In 2003, MIT awarded 63 Ph.D’s and 10 went to women.
Meanwhile, over at the venerable National Academy of Sciences, for the first time ever 25% of this year’s inductees were women, way higher than usual. Female scientists now head Princeton, Penn, and the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, among other institutions. There are more women on science faculties at lots of colleges and universities, too. “The iceberg is beginning to break up a bit, but there’s still a lot of ice there. It’s very important that people not get the idea, that OK, everything is fixed now, because it’s not,” said Dr. Susan Lindquist, director of the Whitehead Institute. We’ve seen that in field after field: the minute a few tokens gets their feet in the door, people think hundreds of years of discrimination is over.
