"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." -- Rom. 8:28
Together, Parson and Ozaki interviewed eight female students majoring
in math or physics to learn more about why women struggle in STEM. From
their interviews, the professors learned that many women feel pressure
to conform to so-called “masculine” norms.
According to the professors, these masculine norms include “asking
good questions,” “capacity for abstract thought and rational thought
processes,” “motivation,” the expectation that students would be
“independent” thinkers, and a relatively low fear of failure.
Are these women willing to live in a building they designed? Are they willing to go to jail if they build a feminine bridge and it collapses, killing people?
Did the learned professors ask the ladies if they knew how to make a sammich? I'll bet none of them felt the pressure to conform to that feminine norm!

ReplyDeleteI recognize heteronormative oppression when I see it.
