Here's a Q: when did you last read an article about an amazing woman in tech working on something important? Not a story *about a man* saying something awful. Not a story with the keywords "woman," "tech” AND "sex." Thread follows.

Media coverage of systematic sexism is not why women don't get as much press coverage, it's part of solving the problem. Trying to pit these against each other is ridiculous.

Yep; it's a good thing that's not what I said.

Thoroughly enjoyed these tweets and your shotwell facts. This will now be my factoid of the week (if not month, if not year). More people need to know about women in industry, especially ones with rockets!

Thank you for sharing. I didn't know but I do now. The cashier at the grocery store is going to think it strange when I purchase a Marie Claire magazine to read her story

Don't forget her "boss" is the HUMAN being that will get us to mars (if he's actually human) and should be respected as such

Magazines feature the stories that effectively sell their magazine. Glad the audience for Marie Claire is tolerating a "woman in tech" article already. Long way to go until they expect, or even demand it.

The fundamental failure is that Marie Claire is a fashion/beauty rag. Shotwell has been covered in newspapers, business magazines; the places we should be looking for women. She's even done a TED talk. I'm certainly not going to look in GQ for strong men to look up to.
