1) The document discusses gender differences in the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). Historically, computer programming and gaming were seen as masculine activities. 2) The study found that ICT knowledge and skills promoted on websites were focused more on cultural uses than economic or civic uses. Websites also featured more occupations traditionally associated with masculinity. 3) The results suggest ICT is still gendered male and that narrowing the gender gap will require promoting ICT for all types of uses and showing women and men in a diversity of ICT-related roles.
