Half this list is nobel prizes going to supervisors when the woman in question was either a student or dead, neither of which qualify for a nobel prize.
It’s good to stand against discrimination, but there is no need to embellish the truth.
Probably people who have heard of these scientists being recently credited for their work.
The phrase “all the credit” is a bit sensationalist, and it’s too easy to poke holes in, although I do concede that “Most of the credit” is vague and “All of the Nobel Prize recognition and prize money / peer accolades” is a bit too wordy.
It’s important that we don’t weaken the cause by easily disprovable exaggeration. These scientists did not get nearly enough credit; true.
So, how about you go ahead and do the math on how long it took for that to finally happen for each of these women? And when you’re done not bothering to do that, go ahead and admit that you wouldn’t be pissed at all if your hard work and lifetime of research and sacrifice was credited to someone else- and not corrected until you’re long dead.
Do you have quotes on these women being infuriated? Jocelyn Bell shut down tabloids who insinuated she wasn’t credited, and Payne was cited by Russel as “the most important research” after a different person, her advisor, told her not to rock the boat on her thesis project. Payne became a department chairwoman some years later.
Who is downvoting this?
Have you met men on the internet lately? like a 1/3 chance of intense misogyny.

Lmao what
If you think ONE THIRD of men are not just misogynistic, which would be laughable enough, but “intensely” so, you are absolutely the problem, not them
If we’re still honest here, didn’t these men just shield them from the burdens of fame and criticism?
So they could focus on their families
I think people missed your sarcasm lol

Because I’ll be waiting here to call you a liar.

I agree, it’s infuriating.
