This reminds me of the logic puzzle: "This sentence is false". If it's false, it's true, but if it's true, it's false.
Anyway, remember all those "Studies" that used mice or rats to prove some point or other about medicine or behavior? Well, it turns out that mice and rats are scared of men, but not women. So if the mouse was dosed or poked by a man, the measured reaction was different depending on the gender of the lab tech.
Now, whether the gender of the mouse matters in responding to the gender of the human, it does not say.
Here's a more scientific version of the report in Nature.
The fear of men is called Androphobia.
"The best-laid plans of mice and men — Often go awry"
Robert Burns (more or less)
Perhaps planning should be left to the women.
Déjà vu is the phenomenon of having the strong sensation that an event or experience currently being experienced has been experienced before: Science is a Scam.
