Facts versus feelings. And we wonder why progress is so slow when literally even an inch of progress gets this kind of reaction?

This is unbelievable! Kurt Wüthrich, an 84-year-old, Swiss, male scientist, who won the Nobel Prize in 2002 claims that "as a male scientist" he has "a feeling of discrimination." He said this during the 72nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting on a panel that had four old, male scientists including him and an old, male moderator. (It was literally a susage fest!) When Science Magazine asked him to elaborate on the kind of discrimnation he faced, "Wüthrich said he did not feel personally discriminated against as an individual at the event but thought that all men attendees faced discrimination while women were tokenized." Here's an example of the discrimination Kurt Wüthrich, a Nobel Prize winner, gave: In group photos of laureates, women laureates were asked to stand in front while male scientists like him were told to stand behind them 🤦😂😭 This makes him feel "horrible" because asking women laureates to stand in front is "ridiculous, fully ridiculuous." A young scholar countered Wüthrich's childish tantrum and the moderator tried to shut her up. For reference, here's a comparison: Nobel Prizes won: By men: 892 By women: 60 Speakers invited to this year's Lindau meeting: Men: 34 Women: 5 ------ A couple of observations: 1. The feeling among men that gender equality is somehow a form of discrimination against them is not limited to incels (involuntary celibates) on the internet. Male Nobel Prize winners can feel the same way too. 2. Many young scholars and scientists are still playing the "prestige" game: do a PhD in a "prestigious" university, do a postdoc in a "prestigious" lab, go to "prestigious" meetings like Lindau. Playing the prestige game takes a lot of toll on one's mental health and personal relationships. The worst part is make you feel extremely insecure. No amount of external validation, not even a Nobel Prize, will help you overcome your insecurities.

Yeah, my mom and dad's interracial marriage was illegal until I was a year old and then--later--they struggled to buy a home in their Long Island community because people didn't want to sell to a Black lady. Good times!

I can't know for sure but I have to imagine for a woman of color born in 1928 having a career in academia probably wasn't easy. She got her doctorate in 1985. She would have been around 57 at the time.

"When women and men rated men’s allyship similarly—which happened in a quarter of the study’s pairs—women reported higher levels of energy and inclusion than others." C'mon guys let's be the change.
Amy Diehl, Ph.D.@amydiehl

Study of 101 male-female colleague pairs finds men often believed they were better allies than the women did, esp when the men didn't intervene to call out sexism as it was happening. It's not enough to say or think you are an ally, it takes action! scientificamerican.com/article/men-th…
