I will agree that women are bad at science. Has anyone read this?

Total crap.

Yeah yeah I know. Chicks are good at all of this and the study is BS. I just saw an excuse to slam Rachel Carson.

Probably responsible for more deaths than Hitler and Stalin combined.

Science was always easy for me, but math went over my head like a pigeon. English, spelling, reading, etc., were super easy, on the other hand. As I got older, I learned more of the difficult stuff and less of the easy stuff, and it is still going on.

Minerva was goddess of mathematics and logic.
There has been no female equivalent since. And for all her talents. mathematics was never associated with the Virgin Mary.

People become what they are taught to admire. The Romans did not have a problem with strong, logical women.
