In this chapter we review two major themes in research on gender and ICTs (information and
communications technologies). These are gender differences in IT-related employment and
the relationship between gender and cyberculture. Although we argue that these are
currently the most fertile areas for research on gender and IT, it is clear that they have

In this chapter we review two major themes in research on gender and ICTs (information and communications technologies). These are gender differences in IT-related employment and the relationship between gender and cyberculture. Although we argue that these are currently the most fertile areas for research on gender and IT, it is clear that they have developed largely separate research trajectories. Efforts to bring the two together might then appear to be no more than an overambitious attempt to be comprehensive. However, we lay no claim to a comprehensive coverage. Rather, we argue that there are more compelling reasons for bringing these two seemingly disparate areas together; reasons which do not obviously emerge from treating them separately. Although these two areas have been pursued by separate research communities, there are important commonalities which we try to open up in what follows.
