Like I said, it's not the news itself, it's the phrasing of the subheading that bothers me.
To use your example, it's more like saying "experts surprised female chemist solves problem in particle physics", when "chemist solves problem in particle physics" would have been so much better.
But I take your point.
- bopbeepboop 6y agoWhat word in the subheading do you believe is like “female” in your example? “Postdoctoral”? I’m genuinely confused here. It sounds like “experts surprised professional chemist solves problem in particle physics”. “Professional chemist” is a meaningful title, unlike “female chemist”. The problem with naked “chemist” is that there’s a lot of grades — from student to hobbyist to YouTuber to postdoc to PI for industry lab. How are you interpreting “postdoc” the same way as “female”? One if those is a job; one of those is a biological fact.
