“As a neuroscientist, sometimes I think of how far we’ve come but how far we’ve yet to go. Up until 1966 women were expected to resign from their work when they were married...

...Ruby Paine Scott, one of the pioneers of radio astronomy, made her big discoveries because she was able to work thanks to keeping her wedding a secret...
...Today, 50% of science, tech, engineering med and maths graduates are females, but there’s just 16% of women in the top jobs. This is disappointing, because evidence suggests that diversity is great for productivity.”

Feminine. Attractive.
It was hard (could I even cope?)
It wasn't a career conducive with having kids.
