Are statistics sexist?

A lovely feminist I encountered works in a subfield that is about 80% female, in an area in which this subfield is quite prominent. I asked what she did, and she identified herself as working in a given profession, but did not tell me the subfield. I guessed the subfield, and I have never seen such raving lunacy in my life. She associates this guess based on statistics and geographic knowledge as evidence of vile sexism.

Ohh...I see....thanks I have had enough crazy for today. Ask next door if they need any...
