- Sci + Tech incorporates stereotypically masculine Values & Practices, because of its history, practitioners and locations.White, Western cultures: technical competence consitutes an integral part of stereotypical masculine identityWhite, Western cultures: lack of technical competence constitutes an integral part of stereotypical feminine identityStereotypes of Masculinity = Stereotypes of Engineering/Scientist, e.g. logical, abstract, non-emotional, independent, competitiveGirls/Women may experience conflict between Feminine gender identity & Masculine culture of STEMThus, girls actively resist for valid reasons, rather than having misconceptions.
