Word on my cyber street says THIS is the hot new geek-girl blog in town. Let's see if it lives up to its aspirations to create the oft-longed for safe space for female geekery.
From their introductory postings:
Because even if we want to play with the boys, there is a value to having our own space.
Until advertisers, producers (of, say, The Big Bang Theory), and the larger society cease to assume that if you’re into sci-fi or videogames then you’re universally male; until the Big Two of American comics figure out that the way to get women to read comic books is not to pander to the demographic, but simply to make consistently good comics; until videogame makers finally figure out exactly why booth babes are flagrantly, shockingly sexist… the voice of the female geek needs to be heard.
