Where are the lesbian scientist role models? We never hear in mainstream lesbian media about the achievements of lesbian and queer female scientists, medical researchers, doctors, engineers and technicians. Bring on the positive queer science role models!! Young queer women out there could benefit from hearing the stories of lesbian and queer scientists and other technological or health related professions.

I’m just entering the field of science writing, but I’ve already meet a few fellow queer female writers… by no means a formal survey of the field, but that seems like a high percentage already!
I’ve been very interested in female scientist role models recently, so I will be sure to let you know if I come across any stories of sapphically-inclined scientists in history.
Hi Roese.
Thanks for the comment.
I think they are out there, maybe their voice isn’t as strong. Hopefully it will get stronger in the future!
I’d love to know. It’s hard to identify queer scientists in general. #gay #history
