Who would she be? What would she be like? And most of all would we know her name today?

A driving force behind creating Laurier's Centre for Women in Science, Shohini serves as its first director.

That's perfect "the universe didn't care if I was male or female"

Einstein had a women, a wife. Her name was Milena Maric. A serbian physicist, a genius. All famous Einstein discoveries, coming from the time when they where together. She sacrificed her carrier for him, her glory for his because in that time women wasn't really taken seriously. After they divorced, until his death Albert Einstein had never made any new discovery. Even more, he never showed the plans( or whatever you call it) about how he get to the theory of relativity. So Einstein was a woman, her name was Milena Maric

Geniuses do not lead a life of productivity! Most geniuses come up with breakthroughs in theirs 20's and then do not really make other contributions later. Einstein did not come up with discoveries later in his life, not because of his marriage ended.

The important question you should be asking is what is woman? Einstein identified himself as a woman or biologocal woman

Dear Feminists, I don't give a shit about the fact that you think your life is harder and that you think you should get special treatment because it hurts your feelings or that you are unable to solve your own problems. Just take a second to realize that nobody owes you anything and you should stop acting like it, try making a change in your own actions, don't try to persuade people to change theirs.

** Please read ALL** Men have work harder and yet we are meant to believe we should not be able to portray emotions at a young age were are our TEDx talks about emotion hmm? You have commented on most of the peoples comments saying we discourage women but we actually don't and if anything we approve and support them the thing is some times they can give up to easily or get discouraged once and they are done forever. What this talk should be about is to help ALL children of ALL genders to have good goals and to reach them no matter what puts them down. This will help them then and later in life which is much more important than this. They should say everyone can do this and everyone can achieve greatness if they have it in there mind and heart, That with knowledge they can build a living and with success and achievement wait for them not just females but all us humans in a colective effort
