I feel like this trope should be applied to jobs outside of science. Like retail. Retail workers are just as prone to insanity and it’s up to us to make that romantic and cool in similar ways. Also science outside of physics, like geology.

When I worked in a brothel an alarming amount of father’s, uncles, brothers etc. would bring in underage boys, or more frequently young men who has just turned 18. Like they thought it would set them up better in life, like finishing college of something. Gender roles are horrible for everyone involved. Support kid getting dying wish but seriously question if maybe things could be better because there’s much more to life than sex
