No… because that would imply I’m attempting to police what people wear. I am not. My complaint is with Naomi putting words into Google’s mouth and jumping to the extremes, which is completely disingenuous. It has to be, because she’s smart enough to know why content from someone who’s built their personal brand as @SexyCyborg could sometimes be a little too sexy. This isn’t a women in stem issue, it’s a “I wanna sell risqué content to Google and Google won’t buy it” issue.
- mcphage 5y ago> No… because that would imply I’m attempting to police what people wear. I am not. Well, that's because it really sounds like you are. There was a very strongly implied 'Why can't Naomi dress more respectable, like those women using the women in stem hash tag?'
- chomp 5y agoSorry, I understand now. My intent was to show that there is a distinct, measurable difference between normal people and influencers in terms of their appearances and behavior in real life. However, I can see how part of that could be seen as policing what people wear. My claim remains the same though, that her brand is built around creating risqué science content and so the linked Twitter thread is manufactured outrage.
