some women's advocates were outraged that Dr. Summers entertained, let alone endorsed the hypotheses that family arrangements or innate abilities might have anything to do with the success of women in science.

I have yet to see anybody complain that Summers brought up the vicissitudes of the "Mommy Track." Perhaps I've missed them. My perception is that feminists are well aware that the Mommy Track leads to second class existence in the business world, and does so also for men who put families first.

What I've seen is people pointing out that alleging that women are genetically unsuited for science is, in and of itself, pseudo-science.
