Ah, yes, academia. đ Three men doctors created fake social media accounts to spy on other doctors. They published "scholarly" research to explain how unprofessional the doctors were for posting bikini photos. #MedKini #MedBikini

Excerpt from the @CNN piece: "As a female doctor, I'm incredibly aware of how sexist the medical world is. Unless women are regarded as equals, we cannot achieve full progress not just in medicine, but in any other field of occupation."
If snacking on research is your idea of fun (it is for me), here's another article for you. #MedKini #MedBikini sciencedirect.com/science/articlâŚ
âUnprofessionalismâ has long been wielded in medicine to maintain a toxic culture that signals the ârightâ way to be as determined by those with the most power. This means policing womenâs attire but also creating a culture of silence in political advocacy. #medkini #MedTwitter #
There is a strong current in medicine that is named explicitly in this paper to stay away from âcontroversial topicsâ. The problem is that as MDs we hold tremendous power and often also witness how injustice manifests in our society in a very real way. #medkini #MedTwitter
Iâm disturbed by the methodology used here and the shaming of people for having personal lives. But Iâm particularly terrified of the thought policing. Being a strong leader and advocate means speaking out sometimes against the popular current. #medkini #medtwitter
