The strange thing is, computers, programming, content creation and web networking all seem like good openings & settings for females.

Indeed, "computers" were originally females. People who performed computational projects & routine duties, before digital electronics, were women who did it by hand and with mechanical 'adding machines'. What happened? What can be done about it?

'What' happened is fairly well known. Just really why those twists & turns unfolded as they did ... and why womens' former dominance in numerical duties (and Information Management, more widely) did not reassert itself, is less clear or convincing.

It could be that big parts of this particular gender-imbalance are 'artifacts' of circumstances & processes ... and that as they arose unplanned & unwelcome (in the case of this field, which is not the case in all fields), they will also recede from the stage, as times change.

Congratulations to Anyssa Ferreira, and WordPress.
