No it was all her husband's research, because we all know women can't do science.
Even after her husband died. Somehow.

Tolstoy, Proust, and Joyce were all writing within the last 150 years. Not a single woman has arisen who can be counted with those names. Even when given as good and even better treatment as men they cannot be relevant.

Of course women can do science, but make no mistake, exception is not the rule, one case hardly balances hundreds, anecdotes are nothing in front of statistics.

If you think a woman living in 1800's Russia wasn't opressed as shit you're retarded.

The first major step towards equality didn't actually come until effective birth control became a thing in the 60's, and it takes several generations for the system to fully integrate women after that happened. Come back in 50-100 years and we'll be better able to answer that question.

>>7442493

>Plato

Moronic crypto-fascist with contributions far inferior to other contemporary Greek philosophers like his mentor or pupil.

>Mozart

More famous for the prolific nature of his works and the age at which he composed them than their quality. Only began writing serious musical works near the end of his life, and he died too soon to see what a "real" Mozart piece was. His most technically impressive work, the Requiem, wasn't even finished by him.

>Einstein

Pretty good physicist, maybe even the best. But, to be fair, he did only win half as many Nobel prizes as Curie.

Nobel prizes are given for experimental results. Einsteins most important work, GR, was not really testable back then.

But his Nobel prize was for work that contributed infinitely more to science than Curie. Also, her second prize was shared three ways, so really, she only has .333 more medals than Einstein.

Probably for you the term philosophy is monolith, but Plato was very important in abstract thinking, and logic-genetic trees.

Why cant we have a middle ground before we lure /pol/ and the sjws?

Simply, it is not fair to compare academic achievement between men and women for the gender roles were much more clear which is not "opresión" in the same terms such as slavery or the like. It wasnt like women were shouting discomfort for not being aloud in academia. The first western bastions of knowledge were monastery but men and women were expected to do different things but none was the lesser

This type of.expectation is outdated, but it is idiotic to say that all gender roles are social constructs or bad per se. So you will probably still see gendercentric careers.

With respect to marrie currie, it is true that there was a lot of politcs involved (like nowdays) and there was little merit to.her husband. And it is a bit detrimental to only expose marrie currie while not shinning the light to other important women like emmy noether and the one who did predictions about nucleqr fission and a lot of astronomy. And I think is that many people just care about the gendee rather than the contribution.

Put simply, it doesn't matter. Even if she were a fraud, I wouldn't want to know. I've known women who've become scientists because of her. At this point she's too important a symbol for feminist science.
