[We
are wired women. We would rather be cyborgs than goddesses. We have made
a special vow to help guide our sisters, our mothers, our daughters,
and our friends into a cyberscape of their own. We promise to support
them -- however initially technophobic -- as they apprentice themselves
in that realm. We live by the geekgirl code: "The keyboard is a greater equalizer
than a Glock .45." We are wired in to Chaos and Gaia. We swell the
listservs, we proliferate in the Usenet groups, we weave the Web, we chat
and
MOO, we upload and download, we help build and nurture our chosen online
communities. We help imagine and create new applications and forms, always
looking
to that next horizon, always thoughtful about the interface of embodied
humankind and the electronic projection of the highest mental faculties of
our species. In the name of global good and human freedom, we vow never to
surrender
the Internet and its successors to dangerous, self-perpetuating myths of
the
technological incompetence of
women."]
