academia is toxic for everyone, but especially for women, and especially in STEM

The stories my female doctor friend tells me about treatment from male colleagues or female superiors is freaking rage-inducing. But 99% of the time she can't do shit about it because she'll be ostracized or risk her job, or in the past risk residency or placements. It suuuucks.

That one impotent downvote you've gotten really underscores your point...
