    My wife’s been reading this book that references this. As well so many other cases of men assuming genders or disregarding women in science, among other things. It’s crazy. “hmm that skeleton has wide hips, but it is also buried with a sword, so it’s a man”. Female physiology traits in a man is way more plausible, than a woman being buried with a sword … wtf?!?

    Anyway, the book is next on my reading list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_Women:_Exposing_Data_Bias_in_a_World_Designed_for_Men
