- sn9 9y agoThat really doesn't invalidate the statistical argument. She was one person. A better counter-argument would have been to focus on how historically women have been actively and passively discouraged from entering the sciences at practically every level of education. This more clearly has a causal role with Nobel rates and likely played a large role in the disparity.
