How many people think "mankind" refers only to men?

Back in the early Clinton years, I took a trip to the Smithsonian. Went to the Museum of Natural History as part of the tour. I'll never forget as I'm walking around looking at the exhibits they had one of those 'prohibited' signs

over the word "MANKIND" at some of the exhibits. Underneath the sign were the words "Help stamp out sexism in science".

It was truly a barf alert moment.
