@amydiehl women don't *stay* in STEM like men do, still, however. The leaky pipeline is still real.
More women going to uni and being at early-level isn't enough.
We don't just need to break gender stereotypes. We need to break misogyny. Patriarchy.
So long as society degrades the feminine and strictly defines it so that masculinity is built in opposition, we have problems. For everyone, but especially women and girls.
Men can and should address these biases. We cannot fight for all of them *and* for us. However much we say patriarchy harms everyone. They don't do anything about it until it gets in their way. Men who don't respect women don't listen to us anyway.
Men: step up. Stop telling boys they have to be strong, exciting, daredevil workers like pilots and firefighters. And redefine what strength is.
My doctor and nurse friends who deal with people at their most intimate, difficult moments? That's strength, too. Moreso in many cases. Dealing with a classroom full of children?? I am not strong enough for that.
This is brain dump ramble, but. #sexism #misogyny #womenInSTEM #feminism
Supporting women in STEM requires measurable actions and leadership sponsorship. In 2026, equity-focused initiatives drive innovation and retention.

Happy birthday to Canadian 🇨🇦 geneticist Irene Ayako Uchida (1917-2013)! My #linocut is hand printed on 9.25” x 12.5” Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper. Uchida is shown surrounded by chromosones, with anomalies (shown with pink arrows) due to radiation exposure, based on one of her research papers. A strand of DNA is hidden in the image (as her watchband).

The Moon isn’t just a natural object—it’s a cultural one.
Only about 2% of named lunar craters honor women, revealing how even our maps of space reflect historical bias.
As Artemis missions mark a new era of exploration, this is a chance to rethink representation beyond Earth.
