"It's easier for you because you're a girl" 💁♀️ Anyone who ever said this to me is now long gone out of my life physically, but unfortunately their words linger. I find myself questioning my worth, questioning others intentions, questioning sincerity about comments on my work and career, questioning whether I can even claim my achievements to be valid. I find myself pushing to prove that I am more than my gender. There's more to a person than just being male or female and whether their outward appearance looks appealing to you or not. Any person of any appearance, gender or culture, has the right to be seen for their hard work, for the knowledge they set out to acquire, for the ideas they created, for their failures, for their accomplishments and for the acknowledgment that they have gained along their journey. Yes, I am a girl, I like to dress up, I like to look nice. But I also taught myself JavaScript alongside school, changed a whole course to accommodate my curiosity for the game dev, saved up money and moved to London to gain experience and did it all over again to study my ass off to be where I am today: in the game industry ❤ Luckily, now that I'm here, these words are never spoken to me in the present, only echoed from the past every now and then within the darker corners of my mind. . #girlsintech #girlsingaming #girl #girlgamedev #gamedev #dress #outfit #ootd #ginger #redhead #lacetop #lace #gingergirl #videogames #womenintech #womeningames #christmasparty #gingerhair #dressedup https://www.instagram.com/p/B51LGcfFiPp/?igshid=jch2vs735xlg
