No one ever told me that I had to be photogenic & addicted to selfies to get ahead in science. Let's not tell that to women, either.

@pzmyers The Morton's Fork here is that for a while, women get hired and funded if they are Instagram-suitable; BUT eventually a woman *won't* be advanced if she has been on Instagram, etc., because that's clearly not serious and more of a journalism role.
A few women get past this, but it's a pretty effective filter. It also really does damage each group, just not at the same time.
