Me every-time a younger person tells me everyone my age owned a house by age 27
One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

I’m not sure I see the logic in continuing to teach but stepping back from, like, making public appearances? The issue is with behavior while teaching. Why would it do anything to, like, step off the lecture circuit or whatever? That’s emphatically not the problem.

The demonization of feminism has been so successful that you can say something as anodyne as “I think women are oppressed as women, and that gender is a hierarchy” and people will come at you like, “Wow. I didn’t know you were a racist.”
I don't know who needs to hear this but if your worldview is stereotyping men based on statistics you have just created a permission structure to do the same thing to black men.

Summers called this female Chinese economist “peril.”
“Yellow peril” was partially built on the claim that Chinese women were sexually immoral threats.
That logic fueled the Page Act of 1875, which barred Chinese women by presuming they were prostitutes, even before the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act.
