“There are no girls on the internet.” It’s a truism I first encountered online, one of the “rules of the internet,” though I’m not quite sure when or where. It might have been on NeoPets or maybe 4chan. Regardless, the idea stuck with me. I was a girl, or so everyone told me, and I was hanging out online. Was I the only one?

Of course I wasn’t. While certain communities certainly skewed sausage fest, women have always been online. Despite claims otherwise, women helped conceive and build even the earliest iterations of the web.
