I’ve noted that too, and while of course there are exceptions and contradictions galore, I would concur with the ‘hunter/gatherer’ socio-biological explanation. In the really, really old days, the division of labor may have had a deeper and subtler impact than politically correct projections would permit today. (We do still have bodies and minds designed for Ayla and Jondalar.) So hunters would be expected to enter a hunt having a fairly good idea what they were after and how they were to attain it. (This might explain a propensity for group and team activity preferences between the genders as well.) You don’t just go out and ‘get’ a Mammoth on a whim. Gatherers, on the other hand, would be inclined to be in a constant ‘seek and search’ mode. Are there roots over there? Is that a useful item off to the left? What is there that might be useful or necessary that I can bring back?
