General interestWhich women in STEM, right now, inspire you?
For me, it's AMD's Lisa Su. She has the technical chops to lead one of the foremost chipmakers in the world, she had the business acumen and strategic execution to bring about a resurgent AMD after years of stagnation, and her ethics are (as far as I have been able to see) impeccable. This is all in the American corporate environment, which is toxic enough to make it all even more impressive, and in a very male-dominated field that markets itself primarily to a male-dominated audience. There must be a very, very short list somewhere of "things that Lisa Su isn't good at"; if you told me that she's also an Olympic gold medalist, I'd absolutely believe you first and verify afterwards. Oh, and she also has an insanely good academic track record (from MIT, naturally) and can handle the media with aplomb.
If I was going to point at a woman today and say "See that? Don't let anyone ever tell you that you can't do just as much as she did", I'd be pointing at Lisa Su. She's not (directly) in a scientist role right now, but she's my STEM role model. Who's yours?
Women struggled to be admitted to universities, to win the vote, to have financial control over their lives. They're still struggling to preserve their reproductive rights. TiMs never had to fight for any of these things.
Heck, they're still struggling to be born, to even be seen as members of the human species . . .
This reminds me of Dave Chappelle's joke about how the trans rights movement is a rich White man's hobby. And how it would have gone if all the trans-women were poor Black people...
-Black TIMs: "We feel like girls on the inside!!!"
-White society: "Shut up, n*****rs! Nobody cares how you fucking feel!!!"
I bet if TIMs were treated like real women they would be fed up with "being a woman" really quickly...
Shut up and be happy, you can vote right? And rape is illegal. There's no inequality here. You're completely equal to men and face no sexism-based issues. In fact, you have an inverted-penis pass and are actually better off than everyone else.
Except that last thing is actually true and someone should say it to them.
or else you’re just hysterical
And, let’s not forget, a witch, and therefore need to be burned alive in public.
They don’t even want to be real women. That would not be extra-special enough for them.
They think that they are the all-new and vastly improved version of womanhood.
Yes lmao with the way they talk about sex and gender it’s as if femaleness is some abstract thing in Absolute Form out there that they are actually capturing the most accurately somehow. How CLASSICALLY MALE.
