Dear Google, in Defending Me as a Woman, You've Insulted Me as a STEM worker (hackernoon.com)

The actual title was "Dear Google, in Defending Me as a Woman, You’ve Insulted Me as Someone Who Works in STEM", but it was 8 characters too long.


The limit can be hassle sometimes, can't it? Perhaps a better interpretation would be:

"Dear Google, in Defending Me as a Woman, You've Insulted Me as a STEM worker"

Not happy with that last phrasing, but I think the author is going for the contrast of woman and STEM, which the current rendering loses.


That was what I initially thought of, but it sounded a bit off to me. But if there's a second person who thinks of the same thing, it can't be that off, so I'll edit the title to use this version. Thanks
