 🎙 Sisters in STEM: The Truth About Hypatia (No, She Wasn’t a Math Babe Martyr) Who really was Hypatia of Alexandria? A fourth-century philosopher. A math editor. A teacher who handed out celestial knowledge like candy—and nope, she wasn’t some toga-clad sex symbol seducing her students for extra credit. (We’re looking at you, 19th-century fanfic bros.) In this season finale of For the Love of History, your charmingly chaotic guide TK unpacks the real story behind one of the most misunderstood women in STEM history. We travel back to the golden—er, blood-stained—streets of ancient Alexandria, where academic clout could literally get you killed. (Spoiler alert: it did.) This episode dives into: ⭐ Why Hypatia was the original SparkNotes queen of ancient math 🌟 The messy political stew that led to Hypatia’s brutal death (hint: it wasn’t religion) 🌟 The manipulation and exaggeration of her character 🌟 And yes… that iconic tampon mic drop moment 💅 So if you’re into the history of women in STEM, Alexandria drama, or just love a good ancient scandal, this one’s for you. ✨ Want more delightful brain food?
