5 Reasons “feminists” can’t complain about comet scientist’s “sexist” shirt
Legal Insurrecction ^

Posted on 11/15/2014 5:16:44 AM PST by Perdogg

Yesterday, mankind achieved something seriously amazing: we landed a space probe on a comet millions of miles away from Earth. Unfortunately for the scientists involved in this momentous accomplishment, modern day “feminists” exist.

One of the scientists was wearing a shirt covered in sketches of of scantily clad women. Not actual photos of women, but sketched images of pin ups in skivvies. So this chick from The Atlantic does what “feminists” do when encountering the inane: she lost her damn mind. Naturally, this scientist’s wardrobe selection means women are not welcome to participate in scientific oriented fields…

So some scientist guy wears an extremely tacky shirt. How this prevents scientist women from entering a lab and doing experiments is unclear. I, for one, will keep doing science regardless of the tackiness of some scientist men.

Feminists, for the most part, seem especially ill-adapted to pursue scientific careers.

The “tearful apology” was silly.

Marie Curie managed to go into science and do real work at a time when it really was hard for a woman to be scientists. However if she were alive today and made the mistake of holding a pro life stance, the left would savagely attack her and discount all her discoveries as meaningless.

Where are this feminist’s writings protesting the treatment of women in the Islamic world?

Thought so.

If Matt Taylor was a homo and his shirt was covered with photos of naked men having sex with each other the left would be in a swoon and vigorously defending him and his first amendment right to free speech.

The women on the shirt are not scantily clad.
Their clothing is merely tight enough to be revealing.

The “tearful apology” was silly.

I would call it embarrassing. There is no doubt that as an engineer in a limelight situation, his choice of attire shows that he’s a bit on the socially clueless side…. but she isn’t someone that he really should have paid any attention to. If he had of come out and said “Ok, I showed some bad taste with wearing that shirt.. sorry about that now what were your questions about the comet and this project?”….that would have been about the right tone. As it was, his ‘apology’ makes him look even more like an idiot…a wimpy idiot.

My Great Aunt was a Medical Doctor and Suffragette
She was also strongly anti abortion

The NOW types would have been schizophrenic on her

Wasn’t silly. The poor guy probably has a very realistic fear that his entire career was about to end because of the Stalinist RadFems.

The left presents a far greater threat to science than the church ever did. In fact the same is true of art, literature, music etc.
