    %SCIENTIST ESCAPE INTIMACY OBJECTIVITY SEX LOVE 910220

     The    preoccupation   of   compulsively    objective
scientists  may  be  regarded  as part  of  a  life  style
designed  to  escape  from    the    risks   of   personal
intimacy.     The   more compulsively objective a group of
scientists  is,    the more complete  is the  tendency  to
engage in  behavior  patterns which involve an escape from
personal intimacy.    This has much to do with the  extent
to  which females have not  been welcomed into the physics
profession,  as compared to  the extent  that females have
been  made  welcome in  the  life-sciences  including  the
medical professions.

     Physicists  are  preoccupied  with  objectivity   and
impersonal   analysis  more  than  are  life   scientists.
Physicists  as  a group are much less  skilled  in  inter-
personal  relationships,  and more prone to try to  escape
from  the  risks  of intimate  relationships.   Since  the
profession  became well developed as the domain of  males,
it  serves  the purpose of the professionals'  desires  to
avoid  the  risks of intimacy to be  un-receptive  to  the
entry   of   attractive  females  into   the   profession.
Attractive  females  tend   to undermine  the  program  of
escaping  from  intimacy and the risks  of  intimacy,   so
females are made to feel unwelcome,  in order to  minimize
the  risks  which  intimacy  would  pose  to   established
physicists.
