Doesn't he specifically name two women who got positions with (he claims) less credentials than he has?

The laughter was after one of the people present asked Strumia why he didn't have a university professorship with such impressive citations and he basically said "let's not discuss that."

And sorry, I don't think it matters that it was done "quickly." He put up a slide suggesting that one high-level female physicist had unfairly gotten her position b/c of gender & another was hiring only "gender experts" for a theoretical physics post. That's an attack, for sure.

Was this slide actually in the presentation? Yikes. I'm with Cathy on this one. He chose to name specific people when a generic example would have sufficed (assuming I'm interpreting the context correctly). At best, this was extremely unprofessional behavior.

Yup. It was in the presentation, and was briefly discussed in the talk (though the audio does not include names).
