Are the STEM disciplines discriminatory against women?

steddyeddy · 2015-06-21 21:41:38

Recently we heard Tim Hunt describe female scientists as being distracting cry babies in the lab. Some people have came out and said that this discourages women from entering science and technology jobs. My question is does it? Are these disciplines discriminatory against women or is it that women don't want to do them?…

The article left out the fact his next line was "now seriously".

Because radical feminists and sensational journalists think it's a better story when that stuff isn't included.

Someone mentioned the guy wearing that shirt with scantily clad women on it. The uproar around that was idiotic. The guy went from what was the best day in his life to the worst, because of the backlash. Yet what they didn't take into account was that the shirt was designed by a woman, his friend, and possibly doing the best thing he can ever do for her; by showing her design on an international platform.

The world needs to stop buckling to these uber critical easily offended morons and stop walking on eggshells around them.
