That is the purpose of the article, spin. They want to create such confusion. Remember who watches the most network television. Liberal women. This "spin" feeds feminsts.

The article mischaracterizes DNA and inheritance.

It is all DNA. It is all who lived long enough to have babies. This is PC to make "eve" come before "adam" so to speak. This is just to annoy people. In the end this will be re-re-re-re-re-re-revised. But that will be published in a science journal nobody reads. By then ABC will not be interested.

I am baffled by your assertion that politics has anything to do with this. It has nothing to do with feminism, nor PC.

I do geneaology as a hobby. Some people don't have children, and so their branch on the genetic tree dies off. Maybe they died young. That doesn't mean that the ones who have children are better people.

We're all descended from a long, long line of people who survived long enough to procreate. If you trace the genes back far enough, they're all related to one woman who lived about 120,000 years ago, probably in Africa, and one man who lived about 60,000 years ago, probably also in Africa.

The disparity in time suggests that human beings almost died out for some reason we can only imagine.
