More thoughts on "Coder Barbie"

Shared by matt.gauger
I think it' the other way around: that women who want to be taken professionally don't want to be associated with ditzy, girly behavior.


computer-engineer-barbie_1.jpgOn Mashable, math teacher Rebecca Zook weighs in on the whole Computer Engineer Barbie (aka Coder Barbie) "controversy" with "Why Computer Engineer Barbie Is Good for Women in Tech."

While some have embraced Coder Barbie, others have attacked the concept, saying that her pink laptop, sparkly leggings, and trendy glasses are "too feminine" to be realistic.


The critics imply that real coders aren't feminine, and feminine coders aren't real. But women shouldn't feel like they have to stop being feminine to work in technology.
