A few years ago, a female scientist at University of Hawaii Manoa appropriated the twitter hashtag #ManicureMonday--which otherwise featured women showing off their manicures--to show off her lack of manicure, and that she is handling a test tube (pictured).
The tweet was contraversial. Some female scientests were upset because, well, they DO like wearing nail polish, even when they're handling test tubes.
Anyway, you can learn more about the debate, as well as scientific uses of nail polish, here.
