AIBU to hate this phrase?

It wouldn't be acceptable to say "must have been invented by a woman" or "a [choose a different race to your own] person"

I'm sure lots of good stuff has been invented by men.

I remember reading something years ago about back pain in women, from washing dishes. As sinks aren't designed for them to use, yet they use them > more lower back pain.
Work tops in our last house seemed to be an reasonable hieght but any length of time stood at them both DH and I simlarishish heights got really bad back pain.

Watched a couple doing Grand Designs and in their words they were both short arses and they got things like windows and work surfaces put in for their height - and it made the house so much better for them. They had lots of good reasons to build their own but that was a good one as well.
