random q but does anyone else notice this or is it just me
(F-21) I go to a DECENT number of tech/builder meetups around the city and every time I do a headcount in my head there are like 2 or 3 women max in a full room
the last one I went to, I was literally the only woman under 25 there. there were maybe 50 people
a few weeks before that I met a girl at a completely different event who was building a small brand out of her hostel room. we ended up talking for like 20 minutes because neither of us really had anyone else to talk to lol
she said something that stuck with me: "I don't know any other women doing this here."
and I've heard basically the same thing from a few different women who don't even know each other
so yeah, trying to fix that in a small way
putting together a little meetup for women under 25 in Bangalore who are building something. doesn't really matter what it is
if this sounds like you, drop a comment and I'll take it from there 🍒
edit:
The struggle of writing a personalized post (getting downvotes) and making a Luma event, hunting for locations SOLO, and not being paid or incentivized in any way.
Is more work than someone pressing downvote and ruining the efforts that come from intentions to make women more visible. Please share this with the girls and your communities. I need this to reach the appropriate audience girls
