And please can we call it IT, not 'tech'. As a dev, 'tech' always sounded as though you were doing things much harder than IT.

Which female dominated industries do you regularly see discussed on Hacker News? > And please call it IT, not 'tech' Why should anyone do this? I have worked in tech for 20 years and refer to it as such.
- klyrs 5y agoWeird take on a news site focused on tech. Posts about other industries are often met with 'why is this here?' But anyway, is there a female-dominated industry that promises upward mobility that men are clamoring for acceptance in and failing to get it? And, speak for yourself, I only did IT when I was in high school and now I work in cutting edge technolgy.
- erik_seaberg 5y agoNetwork admins and software developers have different goals, and pretty much every company bigger than three had us in different sections of the org chart. Calling it all “IT” will be misunderstood.
- herschel666 5y agoCan you name a "female dominated industry"? I can only come up with industries, where the labor force is dominated by women. But the executive positions are still mostly owned by men.
