The universities were mentioned as were key scholars. The journals weren’t and I’m not about to publicize them. When you read articles claiming that where people sit on a bus is a reflection of sexual selection, that’s what we are criticizing.

It's getting better now, and burials of, for example, high-ranking women are considered in their own light, not as subordinates to the king. But there are the pockets of male privilege, for example in the Republican party that want to believe and have others believe the Flintstones scenario.
