Hi! This ask is due to your physics bc I am sure you have experienced similar things. I got a ride from a guy and when I said I’m doing theoretical physics he got sooo excited bc he loves science. He asked me hat “level” I was bc he wasn’t sure if I would be able to keep up with his questions. AFTER I said I’m doing my masters he was STILL hesitant. He proceeded to say his questions were BIG ie “god-like” he then asked me “what is gravity?” So I tried my best to explain world lines and space time some GR etc. THEN he was like so “Im really interested in *entropy*. Do you know much about entropy?” He asked if I knew about entropy. (If it wasn’t obvious I look like a girl)
I hope this ask doesn’t bother you, I just don’t have any friends in physics that aren’t cis men. Thank you for your time.
The sheer amount of times I’ve had my own papers “explained” to me by smugass undergrad boys that don’t realize I’m THE AUTHOR
