Popis: [p.1]: " Just over 25 years ago, the Canadian Journal of Physics published an article by Dr. Gordon Freeman, a chemistry professor, in which he asserts that “women who work outside the home contribute to the moral degeneration of their children.” This piece was submitted as a scientific paper (it wasn’t) and published after (alleged) rigorous peer-review by experts in the field (physics?), which is the gold standard for the reporting of science. Not surprisingly, this misogynistic opinion piece published as “science” generated considerable debate across the country. In the last half of the 20th century, some scientists in Canada were still remarkably sexist, which probably doesn’t surprise anyone — and even unethical, which should surprise everyone."
