The truly amazing thing about feminazis is that they just don't *care* that
they always LIE, and they just don't care that they always get caught LYING.

This was also, of course, a classic demonstration of the female intellect,
or lack thereof, at work.

btw, Marie Curie wasn't even on the list when Pierre Curie and Henri
Becquerel' were awarded the Nobel Prize these feminazis claim Marie won:

"In 1903 Marie and Pierre Curie were awarded half the Nobel Prize in
Physics. The citation was, 'in recognition of the extraordinary services
they have rendered by their joint researches on the radiation phenomena
discovered by Professor Henri Becquerel'. Henri Becquerel was awarded the
other half for his discovery of spontaneous radioactivity. In a letter to
the Swedish Academy of Sciences, Pierre explains that neither of them is
able to come to Stockholm to receive the prize. They could not get away
because of their teaching obligations. He adds, 'Mme Curie has been ill this
summer and is not yet completely recovered'. That was certaintly true but
his own health was no better. Not until June 1905 did they go to Stockholm
where Pierre gave a Nobel lecture."

The simple fact that they have to go back a century and dredge up a woman
who got a Nobel Prize BECAUSE her husband requested she be added to the list
is proof enough of the lack of women Nobel Prize winners, eh?
