Is anyone writing about this whole Williams and Ceci thing or is that just more "silly women are whining about inequality in science"

@upulie@PaleoGould It's hard to get newspaper coverage for anything like this. And I *definitely* am not the only one writing about it. ;P
@DrMRFrancis Do you think it's "positive" spin #GaslightingDuo are hawking that has media so eager to print them? @upulie @PaleoGould

@OtherSociology@upulie@PaleoGould I think that's part of it. Their story is "look! women are doing better than men for once! rejoice!" -
@DrMRFrancis@OtherSociology@upulie except I'm not getting 'rejoice' from their writing, more 'shut up'. -
@PaleoGould@OtherSociology@upulie The "shut up" is aimed at the women who still think there's a problem. *Sensible* people agree with them -
@DrMRFrancis@PaleoGould@OtherSociology it's that whole "feminism is a bit icky and I am not like those women" thing isn't it -
@upulie@DrMRFrancis@OtherSociology Yea, which is why there's never any "well done everyone, we've done a good job". 1/2 -
@upulie@DrMRFrancis@OtherSociology Cos that would involve acknowledging that feminism is useful and effective 2/2 - End of conversation

@OtherSociology@upulie@PaleoGould Contrarian narratives always sell too. "Everyone else says A, I say B" is a good story. -
@DrMRFrancis@OtherSociology@PaleoGould contrarians are seen as truth tellers and convenient bias affirmers
