Being exposed to technology doesn't mean that you're guaranteed not to be technophobic. Usually, technophobia is tied to a person's life experience and how he or she was introduced to technology. The answer is that there is no statistical difference between men's and women's fear of technology. With the shrinking difference between the fear of technology felt by men and women, the number of women on-line has increased. But it seems that there is no evidence to support that any group is more prone to technophobia than another.
All groups demonstrate that they are all equally technophobic and equally technophilic.
There is a myth that African-Americans are more prone to technophobia. Although an introducer may understand what they are teaching very well, they can still be very uncomfortable with technology. Often, teachers transfer their anxiety towards technology to their students. Most children learn a great deal about technology in school, especially since they are introduced at a very early age in the United States. We are often told that as kids learn about computers in the classroom, they will be less fearful of technology as they grow older.
