This seems to be some kind of "religion" to you, Joseph?
Pierre and his brother Jacques had been recognized for their discovery of
piezoelectricity a decade before Marie even met Pierre. He was already
established as a reputable scientist before Marie and he married in 1895.
Henri Becquerel had already been recognized for his discovery of
radioactivity in uranium in 1896. She was able to work in Pierre's lab only
because they were married.
The detailed notes and letters which would have enabled us to know what kind
of a contribution she made independent of Becquerel and Pierre (and Wilhelm
C. Röntgen in 1895, Henri Poincaré, Edmond Becquerel, G. Schmidt, Jacques
Curie, Ernest Rutherford in January 1899, P. Villard in 1900, André Debierne
in 1899, and William Crookes in 1900) were destroyed, under her
instructions--with the pretense of avoiding some kind of a "scandal". So
you cannot say with certainty that the lab manager went to work for the lab
flunky, and the destruction of such important evidence from this supposedly
smartest woman scientist in history gets really suspicious.
Even worse, you're talking about a "gender" which demonstrated on a
credible, valid, worldwide, scientific study that couldn't even demonstrate
an ability to even add and subtract. Can such a "gender" really make any
significant contritution in a lab full of those who can count (and even do
calculus)? If so, how?
You don't seem to appreciate how LOW girls scored on TIMSS. Even in the
countries where they did well, they scored on average MUCH lower than the
boys. At the top end of the scores, the gap gets even wider because of the
large standard deviation.

Unless you can come up with some solid, credible stastical evidence that
women like Marie have better intellectual skills than they demonstrated on
TIMSS, then Marie is a sheer myth. You obviously want to believe the myth
no matter how suspicious this all is, but that doesn't change the fact that,
whether or not you want to accept it, she worked for him, and not the other
way around.
