Geeky girls

Nov 11, 2011 07:55

I was thinking about how when I was growing up in the '80s, there weren't a whole lot of girls reading scifi/fantasy.  I think in my high school class of 350, there were only 5-10 of us.  Maybe.

I'm wondering about your experiences growing up geeky.  Did you feel more instep with the boys in some ways?  I hung out with the mathletes, not because I was good at math, but because they were interested in way more interesting things than the girls I knew were.

ETA: I'm having problems trying to comment on people's entries.  I hope it resolves soon.

geeky, girls, growing up
