Without such address Lui argues that the feminist agenda will falter and that real change will not be achieved until access is equal. (Lui, 2004)
As an aside, the gender that is most often associated with a strongly developed social skill surrounding multitasking, the internet as a structure should be more easily understood than almost any other modern structure, by women. The system is a vast spiderweb (that may even be to structured an analogy) of interconnected items and resources that are more multifaceted and fantastic than any one could completely understand in a short time. Internet skills are therefore, forgive the pun, hardwired into our gendered skill set and should be embraced rather than feared. Interestingly enough, this may even become a greater common ground between men and women as men become more adapt at utilizing technology to navigate mental capacities that women have through socialization and seemingly innate ability. (Kendall, 2002, p. 7)
Potential Pifalls
Though there are clear indications through research and even common sense that the positive potential of the abilty of all people to access a resource, such as the internet and the thchnology that drives it there are also many concerns and question raised by people who navigate the net every day, especially with regard to the potential dangers the net poses to consumers. The net is a distribution of ideas that are only slowly being limited by the morality that guides the real world. If you have ever read a true crime novel, than you will understand my meaning. True crime novels are enthralling descriptions of how the mind of sociopathic and homicidal individuals work, and yet real people are drawn to them like the flies that plague the corpeses the crimes have created. This may seem morbid, but in any discussion about the development of the mind we must answer the age old question of the dissemination of the darkness that exists in every mind but is not manifested due to social sanctions and challenges. This conflict arises with the question of the internet because so much of it is guided by dark thought, rather than by morally sanction thought and action. This gives a certain freedom but can potentially challenge the health and well being of an individual or group who is being exploited by or transgressed by this freedom of expression. Though this could be something as seemingly innocuous as the dissemination of medical facts that changes perceptions of the human form and especially the female form, such as is mentioned by Fantone in From Dissection to Digital Genetic Maps or it could be something as extreme as the ever growing pornography industry that seems to reconstruct itself at the face of every barrier or obstacle. "Those biblical and Porn Web sites sit there, side by side, pointing to promises and temptations that long predate the information age" (Washington Post Writers Group, July 6, 1998)." (Lipschultz, 2000, p. 55)
With the reality of universal access comes the development of a whole new set of challenges to the feminist goal. The nearly unconditional sense that many individuals have about the equalizing force of technology comes a whole onslaught of issues "as old as time" regarding the manner in which information can transform an innocent and further scar an infidel or in this case an entire group of disenfranchised and disembodied individuals.
Among cyberfeminists, belief in the myth of "equality" in the equally mythical realm of cyberspace is widespread. Electronic media theorists and commercial entities alike maintain that "differences" of gender, race and class are nonexistent in the Internet due to the disembodied nature of electronic communication.1 Because the hierarchies of RL (Real Life) are believed to be inapplicable to cyberspace, discussions of race have only recently been initiated in electronic media theory and criticism. In an influential 1999 publication, Beth Kolko, Lisa Nakamura, and Gilbert B. Rodman observe that in academic electronic mailing list participants studiously avoid and actively silence discussions of race.2 Kolko et al. argue that "outing race" would render more accurately the diversity of cyberspace but they do not specify how making race visible might change existing power relations. In their words: "Cyberspace has been construed as something that exists in binary opposition to "the real world, "but when it comes to questions of power, politics and structural relations, cyberspace is as real as it gets."
