A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I've had to defend a close friend from repeated advances and touching, she was an engineer, he was 40 years older than her. It's a problem. I've had good friends get taken advantage of by a PI. Gross. It's the power dynamic in academia too where one person controls the career outcome of the PhD student. It's really nuts out there. It's getting better but that takes time and awareness. I've seen what the bad eggs do and they disgust me. It's not just men, but there are a lot of cases of it.
