Is there a self-help group for feminist scientists who usually have a very sweet disposition but get uncontrollably angry when people:
1) essentialize gender roles as biological differences aka "men are the hunters and women are the caregivers"...
2) claim things like "women just aren't interested in science"...
3) historically and systematically seek to exclude women from science.
If so, I would like to join it.
(I'm reading Margaret Rossiter's "Women Scientists in America;" you would not believe some of the misogynist BS that went down in science only little more than 100 years ago.)
