One of the aspects of our ChurchMag team I value highly is the focus on gender equality. Despite our nerdy and tech focus—which, of course, is a male-dominated area—the team is committed to bringing more women on board. Jeremy, one of the other staff writers, has raised the issue of women in tech multiple times, highlighting the struggle with sexism and discrimination women face in this area.
As a woman, I’ve always been a bit reluctant to speak up too loudly about the issues women face, even here on the ChuchMag blog. The primary reason, I think, is because I don’t want to come across as angry, or whining. Plus, it felt so much more powerful to me when men speak up because it’s more neutral, less subjective. I’ve experienced sexism and discrimination my entire life, in subtle and not-so-subtle ways, so you either get used to it, or you become too sensitive. Neither is productive.
