Except that women are 200% preferred over men on STEM.

The only discrimination and oppression is against men and the only harassment is for people who point out the data.

Btw, PhD students as well as professors have been ripped off since forever - it is what makes a lot of people leave academia. You only focus on Marie Curie or Rosalind Franklin etc. because they are women.

Men hate other men because they want to prove themselves - it is genetically wired among our brains. Women have been using that to select mates since the dawn of time. It doesn't make them immoral, but let us not got so much carried away that "facts" and "science" look less important to us.

No one could reasonably think that's always been the case though, so saying "There's been no female Isaac Newton" during the past 400 years of patriarchal society believing women are inferior and incapable is a bit unfair. I have no doubt that there have been women (and men) of equal ability but circumstances stopped them fulfilling their potential.


Sure. Men have a tendency to look at women as some kind of innocent creature. Male chauvinism is rooted deep into male's protector role.
