#BecauseIWasAGirl I was told technology wasn’t for me. ? “I was 16 and a junior in high school,” Alyssa Furukawa, 18, of Los Angeles wrote to @ニューヨーク・タイムズ. “I had been appointed co-captain of my school’s robotics team. 2 boys who applied weren’t selected. One was a friend. He didn’t talk to me for a week. My victory felt like a loss. A few months later, we were having a conversation and he said, ‘Well, you’re only a captain because you’re a girl.’ I felt utterly invalidated, and crushed that a peer saw me that way. Later, Alyssa wrote, she shared the story during a discussion in her English class. Many classmates sat in disbelief, and one simply said: ‘I can’t believe someone would say that to you. Especially you.’ I thanked that boy for his kind words. I thought about that discussion later, and was saddened because I knew how little the boys in my school knew about the way girls are treated every day.” Alyssa continued: “That was when I first became a feminist.” Come January, a 227-year-old gender barrier will remain unbroken. But in the days leading up to the presidential election, we asked women to tell us about some of their own barriers. Alyssa, photographed here by @jennadactyl, was one of them.
