I’m not pulling the lack of role models thing out of thin air. Your take goes against decades of research so I will posit that you are plain wrong.

My comment is now surrounded by bordering misogynistic comments. It makes me feel uncomfortable. Sorry to everyone for what I inadvertently unleashed.




> against decades of research

Probably decades of dubious, non-reproducible, sociological research, without a real idea of how things really are in the field. Is just another case of blinded by ideology.

As a zoologist, I am perfectly able to appreciate the work of Jane Goodall and what she achieved. I don't need a "Peter Goodall" at all. This is why science was great twenty years ago and not-so-great now.
