A little “narrow minded” here leaving out the Indians, Mexicans, Eastern European, and Chinese.

Didn't realize those nationalities were exclusive with these categories.

They're a fluffy dragon, white fur with black fur pattern

Chances are that you are like three of those at least if you have to ask

It'd be more realistic if it was a Venn diagram with muscle bro and sailor moon girl. I'd be in the middle.

What's the stereotype with top right?

Asking because if I had to lump myself somewhere, it's that one.

But if it sucks... I guess I'll go wear a sailor uniform.

The "lumberjack" style / hipster.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

Yeah thanks Gilfoyle!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Ew... Gross.

I'll wear the femboi outfit.

We have two IT guys, one of them is three of these and the other is the fourth. The guy who is all three is actually the anime girl on VR Chat in his spare time :)

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I'm guessing the other guy's a furry then.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

Both are, just one is in denial

... it's mostly the top left.

Source: i resemble the top left (although i still have my hairline)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

it needs more bottom left

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

It's 90% of the IT people at my jobs and I had quite a few.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

I was like fuck that's me. My hairline isn't great but I'm in my early 50s.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 5 days ago (9 children)

But, like, are there types of IT women? Asking cause I am one and don't know any tropes for us lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Unicorn.... Nah, I'm kidding fortunately for women there's no strong stereotypes. There were enough women in my gigs that the individuality was easily apparent.

Since that's isn't really fun I'll pull some very broad strokes descriptions out my rear end and see which one resonates with you.

The Professional Mom: 8-4:30 on the dot but maximum effort during working hours and never ever seen goofing off or chit chatting (lunch included). Pretty chill though and smart as hell.

The boardgame/crossword girl: most likely to be gender fluid. Don't ever mistake her for "gamer girl". Will happily shoot the shit with you and goof off if you treat her like human being. Will probably have real experiences of getting work/credit stolen by tech bros.

The optimistic young coder: super jazzed about being the in the field and learning everything about anything. A people pleaser to a fault. Give it two to three years before she's completely jaded. Until then, an absolute sponge of knowledge.

The cut throat career track woman: absolutely obsessed with advancing her status. Tech bros learn brutality from these ladies. Usually transition to pure management or product divisions pretty early. Also most likely to organize the "women in tech" meetings for clout in the current company. Stay on their good side for your sake.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Every IT woman I've worked with kicks ass and is really cool, doesn't realize how cool and inspiring they are. Until management, then I have no idea how they got there, they can't seem to use a computer let alone assist with IT related decision making.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

I would love to fit that description and I hope my coworkers think I'm cool lol. I never want to be in a position of power in this field because I have already dealt with enough dumb bullshit on the daily lol
