In response to Nobel Prize Winner Sir Tim Hunt’s sexist remarks, female scientists began sharing their work attire to Twitter. Hunt made comments that women shouldn’t be in the lab, because they often fall in love with their male counterparts (including him), so they showed us the sexy stuff that he couldn’t resist.
Here are some tweets from Huntgate:
Dear department: please note l will be unable to chair the 10am meeting this morning because I am too busy swooning and crying. #TimHunt

I am in the office, but I can't do my science work as I saw a photograph of #TimHunt and now I'm in love, dammit https://t.co/vxVI61UwuL

Here I am again being #distractinglysexy in Level B PPE. Because who can't resist a girl with her own supplied air? pic.twitter.com/uCAwdtOm6R

What a wonderful response from female scientists around the world!
Obviously, if you are doing anything right now that requires any concentration whatsoever, then I hope you haven’t looked through these photos.
