My post was not about "bad guys"; it related to the exclusion of women from scientific studies, which has been going on for a long time in many areas. Many models of disease and health are based on information predominantly about males. It is widely acknowledged, for instance, that there is a paucity of understanding about cardiovascular disease in females, compared to what is known about c.v. disease in males. IMO, if you're only going to study males, you should say so, and not present your findings (as this study title did) as applicable to all PWP.
