My god Feynman truly was a gem we lost from this world far far too soon.

@freemo So what's he saying? That Curie posed nude for him one time? Or was that made up just for the purpose of eliciting a response at his exhibit?

@Bradley_JF the woman wasnt curie. He used the title he did figuratively and to send a message. No one thought that he literally painted curie nor that he was trying to say that.

@freemo I also imagine scientists naked, but I'm, like, 20% just a horny dude. you're saying Feynman is better for also being horny sometimes?

@2ck keynman is better for not acting like a prude but still being reasonably respectful about it.

@freemo why would he act like a prude? I don't get how this makes Feynman a better person or scientist

@2ck Generally scientists have an overextended air of "professionalism" about them that can lead to prudishness.

Being human and talking about women positively and beautifully without dismissing but rather appended the notion of their intelligence and other qualities seems to be all around a good personality IMO
