… which makes no difference either way because science can be done without including any person of any particular gender.
Comment on Why does it seem like women are more wont to make noise in sexual situations while men don't?

Gender does give some unique insights to things though. When only one sex are the only ones looking at something, particularly something that has an effect in a psychology or physiology based thing it’s way easier to overlook a detail of something that they have never experienced. When science was the domain of almost exclusively men there were a lot of easily provable false things in regards to women and archeological finds that were just taken as gospel because nobody thought to prioritize or consider different perspectives. When you study a sex like they are an animal with no internal perspective, unique cultural expectations or values you make a lot of mistakes.
Like they never bothered mapping the internal structure of the clit until 1998. The internal structure is actually a lot bigger than you’d think.

Science generally has a way to test a hypothesis. Like a lot of things that start with “humans do x because when we were cavemen…”, this has no way to test it.
