A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
This is a pretty radical take, and I understand why most people in the thread don't like your suggestion, but honestly think it has potential.
Our current concept of gender is broken, and short of abolishing gender as a societal concept, I think this could bring balance.
Put simply, we have a patriarchal society, where men are seen as the default, and positions of power skew heavily towards men. Yet men are also valued a lot less than women.
I think changing the ratio of genders could actually even out all of these factors.
