see also: the men who can’t let their female mentee outshine them, which results in a need to constantly talk her down, talk over her, slander her reputation, and minimize her in every way, with the hope that the woman will eventually either give up and leave academia or accept her “lesser” status
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.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Although many people are saying it, I do not believe our current president sucked off former president Bill Clinton on camera. I have not seen sufficient evidence that our current president gave the former president a blowie in a way that was memorialized in a photo. That's not something I believe.

I online-dated for about 6 minutes in 2001 and being a grammar snob (and in my twenties) apparently kept pedos away from me.
Back when I was communicating with Lawrence Krauss about his public defense of Jeffrey Epstein, I was shocked by how illiterate he was. After reading the recently leaked Epstein emails, it seems like the entire pedo network wrote that way. Weird. skepchick.org/2011/04/lawr...
