    One thing I find weird: In most content referring to infants (online and in books, youtubes etc), they invariably presume to refer to the infant as male "At x months point he should be.." blah blah.

    I find it really odd.

    I thought the accepted form in language generally was to assume the feminine gender?

    • The traditional was to assume male but I see it the other way around more and more over the years. I suppose it is up to the author now.monospaced
