One of the comments reads : Actually, we will probably never figure out, was it man or woman. but I thought this comment of the professor was an interesting eye opener. https://mastodonapp.uk/@MarkHoltom/112070436760917344

    Why wouldn’t a male have figured out a lunar cycle and tried to track the moon? Not that the female explanation is lesser in any regard, but why exclude all possibilities?

      As a man living with three menstruating women I learned very quickly how to count to 28 on three different cycles.

          Menstruation sucks and anything I can do to make their lives easier makes my life easier.

          But that’s because I’m the man: The man with a good attitude towards menstruation

            Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

            The man with a good attitude towards menstruation

            Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      It could be both.

      A few weeks ago I blew my wife’s mind after she commented that both her and her best friend had started their period and I responded with ‘well, it is a full moon.’

      She thought I was being ’boomer humor’ sexist until I brought up the studies about it. (Which are not 100% conclusive, mind you, but there are trends.)
