I have been given the special opportunity to lecture a 1-term workshop 
on gender + it at a department of business-computer science (the german 
term is: Wirtschaftsinformatik). Therefore I am looking for papers, 
books, etc. that deal with gender+it and aspects of marketing, 
hci/usability.

theories on media usage (reception) has been individualizing the user, 
whereas market research neatly groups users together. what do we know, 
when we hear that there is a new 'metro-sexual' men?

also of interests are theories and empirical data on how girls/boys, 
male/female teenagers, etc. differently use computers, the internet, 
computer-games, etc.
