Women in STEM fire back at Nobel laureate who thinks they’re too distracting

72-year-old British Nobel laureate Sir Tim Hunt has a distinct opinion about female scientists’ role in the lab: Namely, that they are distracting, emotional and shouldn’t work alongside men. Thankfully, Vagenda and others on Twitter are here to show him how wrong he is.

Nobel Prize winner Tim Hunt told a room full of journalists that the trouble with “girls” in the lab is that “they fall in love with you and when you criticize them, they cry.”

Wait, what?
