FWIW my undergrad Egyptology prof tried to get me to leave the field, gaslit me all the time... turns out he was fucking another undergraduate and didn't get suspended for it till years later... he hated me because I knew about the affair. He still works there. He ruined countless careers of women.

Last week was my rapist's birthday, which unfortunately I always notice, & I've been meditating on the solid # of hours, weeks, *months* of my youth I spent dealing with damage he & several other trash men did. The sheer *waste of time* is unbelievable. Could have used that time so many other ways.
I did my job. And then I did a job that never should have been my responsibility afterwards, sending emails and having meetings about how this was allowed to happen in the first place. Other women scholars had to spend their time explaining to Aspen leadership why this was not ok.

People getting mad here about anyone saying it's good that MTG and Trump are fighting. I teach democratization every semester. The first slide says 'elite fracture.' That's always where it starts. It's good when people with bad politics are fighting one another.
I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.

Biology professor whose anatomy exam was solely labeling every part of a larger than life size picture of female genitalia. The graded exams, all 200, were posted along the hall to his office—the hall you HAD to walk to get to his office.
I feel pretty lucky I mostly got through my degree with a minimum of nonsense, but I have one vivid memory of an evening assembly language class I took where I was the only woman, in a building on the edge of campus where no other classes were taking place...
If women are underrepresented in STEM, it's at least partly because men like this offer mentoring, then embarrass themselves by assuming their mentees must be into them, then decide the best solution is to cut ties, which sends the signal to other faculty that the mentee must not be good enough.
