Wu was specifically excluded from the prize in 1957 while her male colleagues got the prize. She devised the experiment that knocked down parity. They won the prize for the idea.

Sounds like you're making a logical claim vs an evidence based one, do you have evidence to proof your claim or is it more like a sounds-like-something-that-would-happen-back-in-the-day-so-why-not-just-go-with-it type of argument?

Oppenheimer and others also said she should have been included. Read the Fine Article, to bring back a Slashdot-ism.
