  3. 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.

    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

    Wait! I am in meteorology (aka atmospheric physics), specialising in cloud microphysics!
    My nails are not as shiny as yours, but hey - with polish 😁
    (And I am "only" assistant professor, so still have time to ramp up my nail polishing skills before I become a full professor!)

      @freyablekman The teacher mentioned a correlation, you’re suggesting causation, which wasn’t claimed. The teacher said "girls" and obviously meant "many girls among his students", which you misunderstandood as "all female persons anywhere". As a leading scientist you should know better.

        @freyablekman beautiful 😍.
        Like Galaxis.

        And what a dump teacher.

                My sister is starting to study physics and she loves doing nail art ! I hope she keeps it up ! 🤗

                  @axel yeah this I cannot do myself, it involves magnets (and UV light for setting the glitter pigments)

                  And here I am, thinking you’re an experimental physicist!👩🏼‍🔬

                  Nothing a first-year’s lab can’t handle. But that would be misappropriating uni equipment 😁

                    When I read “photonics” my first thought was the snarky holographic doctor on Star Trek. 😆 Lasers are fun too, though!

                        @wolfram_roesler I'm not suggesting, I'm just showing my nails!! But I can read between the lines as I'm on social media long enough. What are YOU suggesting?

                            @twobiscuits Yep, they involve magnets and Fabry-Perot interference. Good times!
