@CitizenOccidens what's so pc about something that has been scientifically proven? just because they think in the nontraditional way. i'm thankful that they are actually thinking differently about things. i mean, would you rather they talk about some drug they hope to develop? that would be the old/conventional way of solving things. we need new, fresh thinking on scientific topics, not the arcane approaches.

@LasergunExtreme wow. i feel sorry for any child you have. these students could grow up and do research that leads to an important scientific breakthrough that actually does help "someone in the real world." what a hater.
As someone who is struggling to breath in a world filled with chemicals that I can not tolerate and that my body rejects I applaud Naomi's work and would encourage her to keep it up. She is so right, we need to change our lifestyles at home, at work and school so that we can all breath cleaner air!

Homosexual activists understand the power of words.
Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".
The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationship being discussed.
The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.
@TheLowermen giggling is often a response of nervousness - not intelligence. So what groundbreaking research have YOU done???????????????????????????????????
@heber17641 I'm sure she did, but she is only 13 and is speaking in front of a VERY large group of people. It is understandable that she would have it memorized and that she may not be very experienced in talking in front of large groups of people.
The third speaker DOES show data in the form of the final graph/chart, she merely picks one example to be illustrative of her research, given the time constraint on the presentations.
Kudos to the young women who swept the science fair honors...My faith in our youth is somewhat restored...I think the laughter amongst audience members is the result of social cues about the speaker's nervousness; the girls are nervous (almost giddy), and they are aware that they are talking like adult scientists; the audience laughter is approving/supportive and meant to put the young speakers at ease...imo.
The asthma part was pretty weak. Getting thriggers out can help, but nothing replaces medication, and forgoing that means taking a huge hit to your life quality
I don't understand why the women are laughing? Are they finding it hard to believe that all the trash talk about younger generations and how they're getting 'dumber' is actually false?
I'll take these girls over the "Kardashians" any day of the week and twice on Sunday. It's nice to see bright young minds that can actually contribute to society.
dont know much about the 1st and 3rd girls, but i know the 2nd one was the "grand prize winner"(twice over), got to do "cool stuff", and also meet the president.
@SXMSXMSXM TEDxKids would be really cool if the ideas provided were of good level. Plasticity of the brain tends to give them very interesting views of the world.
TEDWomen?...well I find that to be an unecessary separation.
I am so inspired by them. Is the probability of getting an attachment to a research facility very low? because I was thinking about joining in and working on some reseacher's project like the second girl to get a feel of being a researcher.
@wyldeman0O7 Is there a lack of men in scientific fields? Women comprise 52% of the US population, but less than 20% of people employed in Scientific fields. I think it's fine to have TED talks regarding disciplines in which men are under represented, say, home child care. But to whine because women are being recognized and encouraged as a means of overcoming the problems that still persist as a result of a history and even continuation of sexism, is asinine. In short; grow up!
@fiercefunky women may lag behind in scientific research but overall, girls do better in school, do better in college, are less likely to drop out from school and college and most significantly, more women are graduating from colleges than men. So while women engaging in medicine, math, science is always welcome, the real problem in society for quite a while now are underperforming males. i realize this isn't related to your reply to wydeman0O7. i just wanted to make a point.
@fiercefunky The point that you are trying to make is based on a false premise, I would argue that it is by women's nature, NOT men's design, that there are "too few" women in science-based industry. (I obviously reverted to provocative language to fish for someone like you.) TEDxWomen is the MANUFACTURE of feminine scientific sensationalism. If women were naturally scientific, statistics would show it. "Oppression" does not even come close to accounting for that large of a percent spread. Fuck.
@wyldeman0O7 Women aren't "naturally" scientific? Oh good grief. You need to watch more TED videos. A LOT more.I mean, that statement is far more ignorant than all the "get back in the kitchen" comments. There is nothing inherently more "scientific" about a man's brain; the disparity is ALL social.
@fiercefunky "Men are privy to a larger brain; an arsenal of novel functions that are absent or highly diminished in females. Spatial awareness; reasoning capacity; problem-solving aptitudes; motor skills to name a few, Men are statistically less likely to go insane due to the hypothalamic mastery they possess (and by the way, how fucking unprecedented that the human species expresses a statistical spike of neuroticism among women)." As paraphrased from my book. Apologies for your disagreement.
@wyldeman0O7 So your "book" plagiarized a section of "Mein Kampf" but changed "jews" to "women" and what? You think somehow that validates your ignorance. Nice try angry little boy, but you're still an ugly moronic loser whose fury over being a 35 year old virgin living in his mother's basement is impossible to conceal; even in anonymous youtube comments. 0O7? Wow, I bet you're a cool spy with lots of girlfriends only you're cooler cuz you have a zero and an "O" in your code name.
@fiercefunky Glad you agree that it's well written, that being said, your argument fails logically: the Jewish-race/culture contains men. Whoops. Furthermore, I never advocate social-Darwinism. Male aptitudes are key selective parameters to human evolution; women are of minimal consequence in this respect. They are, however, the result of a few million years of sexual selection (the sexier the cave-girl, the more fit a vessel for reproduction)... Not angry, just fascinated by your Facebook wit.
@SOSTacoJohnson hardly. wylddeman0O7, like you, is an infantile moron whose youtube sexism and bravado is an obvious display of his frustration over the fact that he, like you, cannot get a girl to sleep with him, unless he pays her. All you sad little internet boys who say shit about women going back to the kitchen etc. are such pathetic virgin trolls, and the only woman that will ever be in your life is your mother. And not even SHE will make you a sandwich. Troll harder.
@TheEoli How do you know that they are not born in the us (which basically means, they are born in the richest minority in the US)? Perfect life conditions and less education? Dont fool yourself.
@3csimon Actually, by the way they phrased it, it sounded like they sent out requests for access to the labs to all 200 or so that they asked at once. Also, you might not necessarily start as soon as one accepts, since you'd want access to the best equipment possible and to a laboratory close to home so you could spend as much time as possible on the project. Just my thoughts.
2nd talk: Along the road she would discover that to the system there is no interest in curing the cancer. It is better for the GDP if more people are sick. sorry, but it is true.
WOW. What a great collection of bright minds. I hope their research and goals get fulfilled and that they are never confronted by the impenetrable wall of the drug companies.
Most women just don't want discriminated because they're women. TEDxWomen associates want positively discriminated against because they're women. I feel really sorry for the first girl there.
Yeah, I don't find the "giggling at big words" amusing. This is how most 13 year old's should be speaking. It's not that these kids have a unnatural intelligence & uniqueness, it's that these kids have decided to use the full potential of their brains.
It really doesn't say good things about the TEDxWomen audience that they giggled every time a big word was said or an equation popped up on the screen. These girls deserve to present in front of a real TED audience.
@Nyphur I think the giggling was more due to the unusual age of the presenters than the fact that they or the audience were women, but regardless of the cause it was incredibly disrespect to keep giggling when the girls knew what they were talking about and were killing their presentations - especially since I imagine they were nervous.
First talk: Actual self-directed research. She saw an interesting issue, formulated a hypothesis and tested it. Presented clear data and explained its implications.
Second talk: A cancer research team let her work on one of their projects, the work seems solid but it wasn't really her research.
Third talk: Talked about investigating the strength of each environmental factor in Asthma, but didn't present that data. End product was instead an alternative model for an existing diagnostic process.
@zombierepublican you really need to ask that?? we're in 2012 now and women are the only people who still feel undermined by society im sure in some areas its true but ted 'women'? way to go shit on any reason this talk had when sexism is a underlying quality. i want to see ted 'men' ????
Why do the women in the audience start laughing when the first girls says big words or when the third girl say that she inverted a mathematical model. Social defense mechanisms runith a deep.
Simply, wow! The younger generation will be the pioneers for many life saving treatments if they have a tenth me these girls brains. Very well presented talks, and very confidently delivered.
They really should have had a more balanced audience. If there were more scientists in the audience instead of feminists there'd be less giggling about big words they don't understand.
@PeterD2S Yeah it is a bit sexist. I mean honestly putting the winners of the google science fair on TEDxwomen instead of normal TED just because they happen to all be female suggests that it was an unfair playing field. Which suggests google just LET the girls win. Which is not true. They worked their asses off and shouldn't be told "Good job, for a girl."
@PeterD2S My theory is that TED has set such a high standard for their presentations... Whether its a women or man presenting I have yet to see one that hasn't mind f*cked me thoroughly... TEDx on the other hand is like TEDs slightly less talented female cousin... If the topics were geared towards women I could get that, but most of them aren't.... so its just kind of awkward, that they don't have guys presenting as well... Just name it TEDx and have it for ANYONE that wants to share knowledge.
@PeterD2S TEDxWomen does not separate women from men because the "big guys" at TED think women aren't presentable, but rather because TEDxWomen talks often appeal only to women.
@PeterD2S because the standards are too high for most women. some feminist got upset that TEDtalks required intelligent speeches and figured that that was somehow against women. so they made TEDxwomen in order to lower the standards to something that can be achieved by most women. and most women can't come up with something that could be on TEDtalks.
the same reason there are women's races at the olympics. because if they were ran by everyone, than only men would win.
@PeterD2S Yes, it's basically saying that women need a special category just to be able to participate, like the Special Olympics. Pretty insulting, when you actually think about it.

Geez, this stuff is amazing! I'm kinda sad that I spend so much time trying to improve my high school resume by joining clubs and all, when doing things on your own like these girls did seems to be much more fun and beneficial. : \
Dude, I'm a proud Atheist too, but leave children out of it, they have had to take on the religion of their parents, when they come of age they may change their views. I hold one Christian value, and that is to respect others, And I hold in my Atheism that everyone has a choice, As a human with morality these views must be respected. Unless they encroach and oppress others, that is what I will raise against. Here we have some incredibly intelligent girls and deserve respect. Peace
@30Ciaran I want exactly the same thing as you, fair choice for everyone.
If little kids are indoctrinated in to superstition, where is the choice? Religious brainwashing is criminal child abuse, and it causes permanent braindamage. That shit has to stop.
And dude, dont talk about christian values as if they actually have something handed down from a god. There are no christian values, just like there are no Coca-Cola-values.
Its just man made rules, highjacked to a superstitious cult.
I understand completely mate. However, respect and tolerance are whatthe Atheists I know are into. They are extremely intelligent girls and when they are ready they will question more than science, but right now they are young.
I was 12 when I realised the truth, not hard being brought up Catholic, but kids really have no choice. They are scientists, give them time, in their own way they will dismiss or accept religion, it is their choice, same as mine was to be an Atheist. Peace.
@30Ciaran : You actually think they are religious? I dont.
And respect and tolerance towards people I understand, but towards superstition? Never. We must fight against superstition, its the second biggest problem on this planet.
My grandmother was a true Christian, oh we battled but always had respect. The woman was 80 and I helped with all manner of things, I also helped, not for any redemption from a mythical creature, but simply because it was and is the right thing to do

Yeah, I don't find the "giggling at big words" amusing. This is how most 13 year old's should be speaking. It's not that these kids have a unnatural intelligence & uniqueness, it's that these kids have decided to use the full potential of their brains.

Having TEDxWomen injures the cause of which it was created for. It's a disgrace to reason.

It really doesn't say good things about the TEDxWomen audience that they giggled every time a big word was said or an equation popped up on the screen. These girls deserve to present in front of a real TED audience.

@Nyphur the audience was probably made up of her parents, friends and their parents

@Nyphur I think the giggling was more due to the unusual age of the presenters than the fact that they or the audience were women, but regardless of the cause it was incredibly disrespect to keep giggling when the girls knew what they were talking about and were killing their presentations - especially since I imagine they were nervous.

First talk: Actual self-directed research. She saw an interesting issue, formulated a hypothesis and tested it. Presented clear data and explained its implications.
Second talk: A cancer research team let her work on one of their projects, the work seems solid but it wasn't really her research.
Third talk: Talked about investigating the strength of each environmental factor in Asthma, but didn't present that data. End product was instead an alternative model for an existing diagnostic process.

@zombierepublican you really need to ask that?? we're in 2012 now and women are the only people who still feel undermined by society im sure in some areas its true but ted 'women'? way to go shit on any reason this talk had when sexism is a underlying quality. i want to see ted 'men' ????

Why do the women in the audience start laughing when the first girls says big words or when the third girl say that she inverted a mathematical model. Social defense mechanisms runith a deep.

They really should have had a more balanced audience. If there were more scientists in the audience instead of feminists there'd be less giggling about big words they don't understand.

Why does TEDxWomen exist? Why not stay with just TED?
PeterD2S 1 month ago 89
@PeterD2S Yeah it is a bit sexist. I mean honestly putting the winners of the google science fair on TEDxwomen instead of normal TED just because they happen to all be female suggests that it was an unfair playing field. Which suggests google just LET the girls win. Which is not true. They worked their asses off and shouldn't be told "Good job, for a girl."
ratholin 1 month ago
@PeterD2S My theory is that TED has set such a high standard for their presentations... Whether its a women or man presenting I have yet to see one that hasn't mind f*cked me thoroughly... TEDx on the other hand is like TEDs slightly less talented female cousin... If the topics were geared towards women I could get that, but most of them aren't.... so its just kind of awkward, that they don't have guys presenting as well... Just name it TEDx and have it for ANYONE that wants to share knowledge.

@PeterD2S TEDxWomen does not separate women from men because the "big guys" at TED think women aren't presentable, but rather because TEDxWomen talks often appeal only to women.

@PeterD2S they're sexists
invinciblemode 1 month ago
@PeterD2S because the standards are too high for most women. some feminist got upset that TEDtalks required intelligent speeches and figured that that was somehow against women. so they made TEDxwomen in order to lower the standards to something that can be achieved by most women. and most women can't come up with something that could be on TEDtalks.
the same reason there are women's races at the olympics. because if they were ran by everyone, than only men would win.
greycloud24 1 month ago
@PeterD2S Yes, it's basically saying that women need a special category just to be able to participate, like the Special Olympics. Pretty insulting, when you actually think about it.

Homosexual activists understand the power of words.
Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".
The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationship being discussed.
The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.

Dude, I'm a proud Atheist too, but leave children out of it, they have had to take on the religion of their parents, when they come of age they may change their views. I hold one Christian value, and that is to respect others, And I hold in my Atheism that everyone has a choice, As a human with morality these views must be respected. Unless they encroach and oppress others, that is what I will raise against. Here we have some incredibly intelligent girls and deserve respect. Peace
30Ciaran 1 month ago
@30Ciaran I want exactly the same thing as you, fair choice for everyone.
If little kids are indoctrinated in to superstition, where is the choice? Religious brainwashing is criminal child abuse, and it causes permanent braindamage. That shit has to stop.
And dude, dont talk about christian values as if they actually have something handed down from a god. There are no christian values, just like there are no Coca-Cola-values.
Its just man made rules, highjacked to a superstitious cult.
bary1234 1 month ago
@bary1234
I understand completely mate. However, respect and tolerance are whatthe Atheists I know are into. They are extremely intelligent girls and when they are ready they will question more than science, but right now they are young.
I was 12 when I realised the truth, not hard being brought up Catholic, but kids really have no choice. They are scientists, give them time, in their own way they will dismiss or accept religion, it is their choice, same as mine was to be an Atheist. Peace.
