The idiot feminists just cannot get it. It is
not that they cannot present some good examples
they simply don't.
In December 1980 I went for a job interview at
an Oxford College. While there I was catered by
the female secretary of the faculty. While at
dinner a tall slim aging woman, perhaps in her
sixties, walked across the refectory. Mein
hostess proudly announced that she was teaching
astrophysics.
Now, astrophysics is about as math-heavy as you
can get. So why don't the girls try point up
some of these examples rather than trying to
force LIES upon us? Also, just for good measure
- who was the first DOUBLE Nobel Prize winner?
