    We were just talking about this the other day in the thread with some goon saying how Japanese women want to be “more feminine” or whatever the fuck.

    Who knew Japanese women don’t actually want to spend their whole lives barefoot and pregnant in a kitchen?

      It just makes me mad realizing how many geniuses we missed out on because our current system thinks they’re helping men feel better.

      Guess what? Feeling better about myself doesn’t solve the MANUFACTURED doctor shortage the world is seeing.

        The odd thing is I’m pretty sure “You’re dying because there’s no doctors but as it happens a woman comforts you” is sort of like a male fantasy

          I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

        I just learned about Frances Perkins yesterday. So fucking sad the way we treat and minimize women and their accomplishments.
