I agree, and I think there is definitely space and a need for "women in science" articles, because there are topics that are of particular interest for women in science. The issue that the author is pointing out is that it seems like when it comes to female scientists, it seems like every article about female scientists is written from this "women in science" perspective.

And I think that is a valid issue. But I think the real answer is, unfortunately, that people don't really care about science articles. The human interest angle is the only thing that sells ads.
