    I heard last week that the physics teacher of the daughter of one of my colleagues told the daughter that girls who do their nails don’t do physics. Sigh.

    So, here are the nails of an internationally leading particle physics professor. My nails.

    Don’t believe the gatekeepers! #womeninSTEM

    @freyablekman I can attest to an oil engineer who surprised the helicopter crew taking her out to the platform by appearing with painted fingernails.

      @freyablekman As a dad of a 9yo who would love to learn more about STEM (I'm a CS grad, software developer by trade, trying my best to teach her stuff whilst giving her room to grow and do her own stuff):

      how do you get nails like this?! they are so freakin' cool!!!

      my kid would **absolutely love** this!! (and frankly, so would I!)

                      @freyablekman fuck that guy. My son is the top physics student at his school, and if I heard this bullshit from his teacher, I'd take him to go get his nails painted that night

                          @mlanger @jcdvore Yeah I was also baffled when I heard. Can't believe that still happens in 2026

                          One of the novella brothers was telling us on their podcast that their daughter's science teacher told his class the moon landings were faked. Completely inappropriate and for 2026, mindboggling.
