Zusammenfassung: | The collection features correspondents' experiences of sexual threat and hostile crowds; of dealing with protectionism from male editors, yet also the awareness of their differing vulnerabilities in global hotspots. Other female journalists have been frustrated by the overt and gender-specific focus on the threat of rape. But rape has often been the least of their worries. "Perhaps because rape is not a job-specific threat like bombs and missiles (and giant bugs), it doesn't occupy my mind on assignments the way those other threats do. Like male colleagues, main concerns are staying alive and keeping brains and limbs intact.Being underestimated at work - a major frustration - has also been used to many a female reporter's advantage. As a woman it was often easier to talk to local people without them becoming suspicious.Yet what emerges most strongly from these recollections is the diversity of experience among women reporters, and the need for a strategy that empowers their work instead of restricting it |
