The sex change started to happen around the early 90s, I saw the male Reference Men in ACLS, I suppose the PTB thought they were bigger and easier to intubate.

Because of Reference Man being used to determine the size of all sorts of things, being female or a shorter ethnic minority means going through life being just plain uncomfortable, even if you lead a charmed life and are never endangered by things that were designed for somebody who's nothing like you.
