Never let the actions of others dictate your future. If you have a goal never never give up.

Spoken like a true man. I'm a victim of sexism in STEM, now resigned to finish my degree in Japanese rather than deal with the awfulness that is men in Engingeering.

Simpler said than done. Of course I agree with you, but we need deeper changes in our society, in our behaviour as people. If you get told time and time again, that you're worthless, can't achieve anything etc. that's going to leave a mark. Sure, encouraging to not let that dominate one's thoughts is a useful skill. But it shouldn't be necessary in the first place.

You can also have a chance to get out of such a negative surrounding, connect with people that respect you and do actions that raise your self esteem (back).

What I read was "don't let these bastards stop you", as in "whatever they do, you have your place in science or any other pursuit you make".

It doesn't mean "no change needs to be made". Rachel didn't give up, and was right about it, and it's good she spoke up.

The woman who had to endure constant misogyny during her scientific career. You're placing the responsibility on her instead of the people oppressing her

Maybe instead of meaningless platitudes actual change would be in order.
