Nah. I quit reading because of the subject matter. I see no sense in the current trend to analyze traditional roles. People make life harder than it needs to be. It makes my eyes cross. And I honestly didn’t find it interesting.

home technology, including appliances and bathroom plumbing, played a significant role in moving women into the labor force

And their hero, Zero and his EPA, are about to take all that away from them by regulating a "dangerous" gas that occurs in huge quantities in nature.

feminism is a social construct. Child rearing is biological reality.

??!? Testosterone is mostly produced in the testicles. In women, most T is produced in the ovaries, although the amount is much less than in men.

I believe your right. IMHO, the author is probably confusing the specific hormone receptors, which are needed to complete a negative feedback inhibition loop, with the hormones.

Yes. The hypothalamus signals the pituitary, which then signals the gonads to make sex hormones, which are monitored by the hypothalamus.
