      This is when I stopped watching. What does an astrophysicist know about gender? Why did she feel the need to insert it into an astrophysics video? Scientists: stay in your lane and recognize you might not be the authority you think you are on every subject. Also, irrelevant to the content at hand.

        There’s a huge phenomenon of people who are experts in random fields pretending that it gives the competence to speak about trans issues.

        Eg, Helen Joyce is a mathematician but has made her entire career into being aggrieved about trans people.

        im guessing there was truth about some of the commenters saying she was the one that was “hard to work with” after seeing the first 30seconds of the video(about giving up as a physicist", at first i thought it was anti-feminist comment, but it make sense now.
