Big-time exmaple of issues women can face that men never have to.

Responding to No name Life Science Blog Editor who called me out of my name | The Urban Scientist, Scientific American Blog Network: It wasn’t just that he called me a whore – he juxtaposed it against my professional being: Are you urban scientist or an urban whore? Completely dismissing me as a scientist, a science communicator (whom he sought for my particular expertise), and someone who could offer something meaningful to his brand.What? Now, I’m so immoral and wrong to inquire about compensation? Plus, it was obvious me that I was supposed to be honored by the request..
