I'm not sure why the sex of the ~~ancient~~ person who did it, matters.

Make that a common sentiment and a good chunk of the division surrounding modern discourse goes away. People care way too much about genitals both in the past and present.

Not sure why you phrased that as correcting them when you were agreeing and adding to it.

I don't think that's phrased as a correction. It clearly wasn't as you noted

"clearly wasn't"

I see now, you just phrase things abruptly in a way that SEEMS rude but clearly isn't. My mistake. Have a nice day.

You figured out what it meant. That's clear enough for communication purposes imo. You're welcome to your own interpretation though
