Comments on: Thoughts on Gender and the Philly Geek Awards https://www.kellyhills.com/thoughts-on-gender-and-the-philly-geek-awards/ "the hardest thing in this world is to live in it" Wed, 23 Jan 2013 18:58:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.6 By: Allie https://www.kellyhills.com/thoughts-on-gender-and-the-philly-geek-awards/comment-page-2/#comment-267926 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 18:58:47 +0000 http://www.kellyhills.com/blog/?p=1519#comment-267926 I know this response is really late but I was directed here from your more recent post about the “What a Geek Looks Like” infographics.

All I have to say: this post made me teary. I’m so proud of the community that’s been growing in Philly, proud of this fun and mostly inclusive event that’s been sold out two years in a row, and now even more proud to be even the tiniest part of Geekadelphia.

Thanks for writing this Kelly!

Oh well, weekend project. (I see the layout flip also screwed up picture display. Fun.)

I don’t think I’m leaving Seattle any time soon, though.

Keep shining light on the worst parts of the geek scene, and hopefully events like this will keep highlighting the best parts.

And we in Philadelphia are lucky – now so publicly lucky because we have shouted to the world that our geeks come in all flavors, brands and colors – all are welcome because we know that having this community makes us all stronger.

Great write up!

The awards given the other night, of which I was a recipient, reflect the spirit and nature of the Philly Tech Communkty. A community I am very proud ot call myself a member.
Thank you for the great write up.

Women are going to college more than men, women are getting advanced degrees more than men, and it’s not just for programs women traditionally favor.
