Funny story of a distinguished physics professor's reaction to feminists trying to disrupt his seminar. (Old story, but still relevant)

I posted this because we could all learn something from this man. It's not about trying to convince the folks at SRS, because let's be honest, we wont convince them of anything. It's about raising awareness for men's rights, and showing our solidarity for people truly supporting women's rights.

'Distinguished physics professor' just seems to fall short when describing Feynman though.

He is the father of my field of study, that just made my favourite scientist even cooler in my books.

I love Feynman.

After my talk, some of the protesters came up to press me about the woman-driver story. “Why did it have to be a woman driver?” they said. “You are implying that all women are bad drivers.”

“But the woman makes the cop look bad,” I said. “Why aren’t you concerned about the cop?”

“That’s what you expect from cops!” one of the protesters said. “They’re all pigs!”

“But you should be concerned,” I said. “I forgot to say in the story that the cop was a woman!”

/slow clap

Feynman learned how to handle women from gangsters.

See the book "Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman!", chapter "You Just Ask Them?"

inb4 he was sexist.

Actually the story in the book where he gets a woman into bed by "treating her mean" was really an experiment. He said later on that that stuff worked but he didn't like doing it so he stopped. He definitely had a very different kind of relationship with his wife. They were very close in a deep way.

Feynman was THE fucking man.

Well, I hope those early feminist protesters all got what they deserved.
