"Science should be apolotical" lmao. At a conference in April a man told me, earnestly and at great length, that the reason scientists are undervalued and underpaid is because women are allowed to do it - if governments mandated women stay in the home, science would thrive again. We were in public!

The state of mind of some of these people. So messed up and sorry to hear this happened. Hope there was an opportunity to report it to the conference organisers.
But I blame the sexists, not brilliant and/or dedicated women. The cure is to end hatred, not women's work outside the home.
