Gender in Cyberspace…

There is also a very important aspect to be considered in Cyberculture and Cyberspace, which is the difference of gender. Usually feminine metaphors are used in the matrix of Cyberspace, to "jag" in is used as to access the matrix, following the phalocentric point of view of the man accessing the "whom" of the Matrix with his connector. This has been a very commented topic in the world of Cyberspace. It is primordial to remember that it is usually men that access the net (characters that represent the anti-hero paradigm that we talked about earlier on) and through this access they achieve their goals and objectives. Which in a society that is so sexually orientated is quite obvious an does not surprise in the least. If you want to check out very interesting papers on this subject you can click here
