    Some of the comments you see on posts of young women announcing they’re “barely legal” and in the comments you’ve got >45 year old men saying what they’ll do.

    It’s just so creepy and unsettling.

      Have you ever talked with a woman about her experience working in STEM academia?

      45 year old men making gross propositions is not at all unusual. And often those are the people deciding whether you have a professional future.

        I can’t say that I have and my comment was in no way meant to that it doesn’t happen to them.
