I feel like we probably just never interpreted the evidence that was out there in the correct way because of our biases. I don't see why they would have gender segregation when everyone could just do whatever they wanted to/were good at. Seems like the simplest method to me too.

I agree I don't think they would have had gender segregation I just think the ratio of hunters would skew towards more males because of interests and danger.

It makes sense for men to be more exposed to danger, we can't bear children
