Managers and business owners shouldn't take it personally that I do as little as possible and minimize the amount of labor I provide for the money I receive.
I've noticed the same thing with regards to actually attending college. People still go; they just complain about it more.
The only change is that there is a much more cynical feeling about the experience. School spirit is out. People see it as "a ripoff I must endure to get a decent job and be taken seriously."
I graduated years ago. When my college (major state uni) called asking for a donation, I laughed the guy off the phone. The idea of "school spirit" seems like a joke to me, as it does for many students these days.
The new cope is to see if you can't do it as cheaply as possible, lop off a year, get scholarships, do a bunch of AP courses prior, etc.
Basically, a lot of students see the process as a box to check as if they were standing in line at the DMV to get their diploma.
If a discovery is good, someone else will want to steal the credit for it. That would apply to discoveries made by men or women. I highly doubt that there is any proof of a sexist conspiracy to steal the limelight from women specifically.
STEM is mostly dominated by men, so there is both more men to make discoveries and more men to swoop in and steal credit for a discovery.

The idea that a position of authority means ~anything~ anymore is completely ridiculous.
What did the medical field do to earn such credibility with you? Any intelligent person should have developed a high degree of skepticism regarding the operations of the medical field as of 2025.
If you are a smoker, you are much more likely to be a burden on this system.
Makes sense to ban these types of activities if the costs of them are socialized rather than individualized.
