The word "Scientist" was created for female scientists. (Men were called "Man of Science")

I can imagine decades of men correcting people and saying "IT'S MAN OF SCIENCE!" Then just giving up the fight.

of course they wanted the word back when women made it cool. seriously though its way easier to say of course people stopped using man of science.

Well, that's a scientwist 🙃

Science has gone woke and transed all the true Men of Science!

Only scientists have scientits. No, wait both men of science and scientists, both have at least one scientits.
