    So, here are the nails of an internationally leading particle physics professor. My nails.

    Don’t believe the gatekeepers! #womeninSTEM

      @freyablekman this. I was told ‘girls like me’ don’t do computer science- by my high school guidance counsellor no less! Costly.

            I paint my nails on occasion but I prefer solid colors

              @doctormo @freyablekman @jcdvore That should've been reported to the school if it wasn't. Someone like that has no right teaching anything, let alone science.

              And we wonder why so many people choose to homeschool. 🤔

                    @MxSpoon sneak peak behind the scenes - this image is slightly outdated, by now my nails are silver! like bullets!

                        @wolfram_roesler And WHY should that stop me showing my nails? Sorry I just don't understand. Maybe it's my woman brain? Or my years of experience of microagressions? I DEMAND an explanation why YOU can read what is inside a teacher's brain and I cannot?

                          And someone should throw feminism at the teacher...

                              @freyablekman Hear hear. I have a PhD in high energy physics, and I have done my nails a lot too. I don't do it so much these days because my nails rip very easily. Anyway, I particularly love the magnetic nail polish where you can use a magnet to create field lines as they dry. If that's not for physicists, then who!?

                                @wiebiwetter @veronica They're magnet cat's eye design. Most nail salons know how to do them. Many combos of base colour and multicolor pigments possible, of course 🙂

                                      So far, I've always done my nails myself, so that would definitely be the next step... My new gold standard are your iridescent nails anyways... 😆 Like iridescent clouds ☁️😍

                                        @OverclockedAndy @freyablekman I still don't know how Dolly Parton plays guitar with those super done up nails on both hands. I mean, long nails on the picking hand is nice, it's like having finger picks. But she's got those mini-daggers on her fretting hand she can still play chords. The moment I have ANY nail above the quick on my left, if I want to play remotely worth a damn, I have to trim them. But she adapted with open tunings and barre and and low string fretting. Amazing!
