“We believe that it is premature to claim that sexual harassment has caused the uneven gender ratio in STEM.” There are several backwards and bizarre points made in this piece but I think this might top it https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/voices/a-different-take-on-sexism-in-science/?utm_content=buffer8a1db&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer …
Just be a little careful please - URMs aren't a tack on - see my comments below. Cisgender women may perceive SH & gender inequity as primary hurdles to science careers, but #POC & other minorities (esp multiple marginalised) exp racism, ableism, homophobia & more as well as SH
Thank you for calling that out. In my head I was broadening to harassment of all types, not just sexual, but I see how that came out very wrong.
Your thread is about sexual harassment exclusively. You preface this by linking to MeToo. There's a reason why I and other WOC haven't joined in those conversations - and that's because of the erasure of WOC by White women. Conflating SH with "other harassment" is an illustration
Yeah when you called it out I realized my error and that it’s important I’m specific about the harassment I mean. Lumping them together like that was sloppy on my part because it diminished all the forms harassment can take and how to tackle them.
