“In its commitment to empirical science, technical thinking, merit, and individualism, engineering culture allocates what it sees as political issues, such as gender equality, to the realm of the social and subjective, therefore, off-limits,” the paper asserts. “Thus, the depoliticized culture of engineering also constitutes a degendered space where issues that may be of social concern to women in science are also devalued and marginalized.”

They say that like it’s a bad thing.

Social and subjective are off limits because the are not measurable and do not contribute to the advance of science.

The world has virtually become indistinguishable from an article from the Onion.

They are wrong. We are living in it.

I am literally lost for words...
