  When talking about vilification, I think the poster is referring to articles like this: http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/the-curious-wavefunction/2014/07/11/richard-feynman-sexism-and-changing-perceptions-of-a-scientific-icon/ http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/the-curious-wavefunction... that say things like >What startled me the most was the fact that when he was a young, boyish looking professor at Cornell, Feynman used to pretend to be a student so he could ask undergraduate women out. I suspect that this kind of behavior on the part of a contemporary professor would almost certainly lead to harsh disciplinary action, as it should. The behavior was clearly, egregiously wrong and when I read about it my view of Feynman definitely went down a notch, and a large notch at that. Oh no! He was attracted to and dated women! How terrible!

    >> Oh no! He was attracted to and dated women! How terrible! No one is taking him down a notch for being attracted to/dating women. It's his chosen techniques in doing so. I'm going to say on a whole, most females enjoy being considered attractive and enjoy being dated. There just happens to be quite a few ways you can fuck up going about it. Deception is one.
