What you're describing john sounds like the patriarchal culture, where the macho men reign by secrecy, authoritarian regimes,
hierarchical systems and brute force.

However, that doesn't sound like science at all. All the science that
counts is published in publicly available journals, often available at
libraries or over the internet for free. The abstracts (summaries) of
the articles are almost always available for free.

Allopathy is simply another patriarchal dominating nature system, where the germ must be killed, the disease cut out or
poisoned --rather than looking at the body as a whole system that must be kept in balance with nature.

Whether the leaders in medicine are male or female is irrelevant.
Medicine is guided by science, not your "balance with nature" garbage.
The science shows that infectious diseases are caused by bacteria,
viruses and other microbes, when cancer is cut out, there is a higher
survival rate and that chemotherapy saves lives every day - 1/2 of
people with cancer are cured and 75-80% of kids with cancer are cured.

Today we have patriarchal society where male values dominate and infiltrate every aspect of society. However, it is beginning to
change as move women into top jobs where decisions are made and policies are formed.

Being male or female has nothing to do with science. Ideas and evidence
rule.
