@ Hot geek,

Who’s to say what is ‘hot’ or ‘not’. My take is that no-one sees you when you blog, so why take your clothes off

Glad GG is not doing obvious and falling into the whole sexist trap – see our friends at SS.

There are more important things – people

@ Media Chick

It is quite provoking how many of those advertised ‘media positions’ are in fact a glorified secretarial role – another ‘for the girls’ situation. that’s if we’re not expected to be in PR or marketing.

This sort of thing is shaping and shaped by a culture that keeps women away from some industries and – if you look at the Guardian Media 100 to do the more important roles in that area.

Shocking waste of talent

@ anon,

well we can’t lay ALL the blame at men.

This kind of overtone does smack of how ‘girls’ should be perceived. We’re not even as bloggers, nay more as ‘boggers’ bogging up the system with postings, but (what PB seems to be saying) is that at least we can be conveniently put to one side as being ‘pretty to look at’ PAH
