The worst thing about this article is it seems to fail to understand the basic of hypothesis-testing, the bedrock of science.

Title: The Theory That Men Evolved to Hunt and Women Evolved to Gather Is Wrong

Subtitle: The influential idea that in the past men were hunters and women were not isn’t supported by the available evidence

Saying there isn't enough evidence to prove a hypothesis is not the same as proving its negation. Failing to reject the null hypothesis is not the same as proving it.
