As for belittling women's unpaid labor. That is a problem on the feminist side more than the chauvinist. Just read G.K. Chesterton or other men throughout the ages to see what they thought about it, he hardly took it for granted, instead he held it up as the glue of society and had great respect for the greatness and complexity of what women do.
You are angry about women being treated as a silent undifferentiated..

I just get so tired of the books that are "Here is this absolutely terrible thing, and I'm going to argue using the same tools and premises of this terrible thing, just from the opposite direction."

...group, then immediately treat men as such.
It's mind boggling.
She says she cannot know the inner beliefs of men who perpetuate the system of ignoring female data, but she is incorrect. A lot of men, on all sides, have clearly elucidated their motivations and thoughts, she quoted one of them: Aristotle. But this is a choice, cherry-picked to back up her narrative. Not representative of men in general.

She could have just looked at places today where women do not have a political voice, access to education, sexual freedom, self-determination.
The difference about the West is that books like this get written, read, and debated on their merits, and what is good taken from them, instead of the book never being written at all.
Stop knocking the culture that gave you the ability to write this book decrying it.

Sigh.
I'm only 10 minutes in and I'm already banging my head against the wall.
1. It is not knowledge to claim "woman as gatherer" as mover of evolution, anymore than it is to claim that 'man as hunter' is the mover of evolution. Both of those are assumptions, hypotheses, theories, thought experiments, not facts.
2. Her premise that data missing as pertains to women is true, but why does she go back to Aristotle?
