Men "Responsible" for Most Genetic Mutations

Tony sent in this article from Wired Magazine and writes "While the article is scientific and logical I just find the opening paragraph highly insulting: "It figures. Men are responsible for the majority of human genetic mutations, according to a landmark publication in the scientific journal Nature." Amazing how easy it is to open an article with male bashing." The title of the article is also, "Human Mutations: Blame Men." Can't we even get away from gender politics when writing science articles?Source: Wired Magazine
