@rachelss@OtherSociology They seem bent on proving sexism in sci is a thing of the past. They want a big, career-making headline, I guess.

@OtherSociology@kejames@rachelss Curious thread in their pubs going back several yrs, reframing as pref/choice both "free & coerced". -
@biochembelle@kejames@rachelss They prefer to see women as individuals "self selecting" out of STEM but don't address institutional issues -
@OtherSociology@biochembelle@rachelss Right. It’s insidious. They reframe constrained choice as free choice. -
@kejames Actually they admit some choice is constrained, even by sociocultural factors...@OtherSociology@rachelss -
@kejames Just seems in their view that institutional factors & sexism aren't the major drivers...@OtherSociology@rachelss -
@biochembelle Yes, that’s (in part) what I meant by “reframe”.@OtherSociology@rachelss
