Tho, one is a myth and straight racism; the other comes with women being chronically understudied. E.g. heart attack symptoms are different, some medication does work differently, women do need less vaccines, and so on. The mere assumption of "black" people's biology to differ much, is uneducated and bigoted legacy crap, while women really do have a different metabolism and body then men, which is also known. Not saying one failure is better than the other, really... just different issues.

Of course there are differences in details; black people assumed to be different in ways they aren't, while with women known differences are ignored. Either way, they're not taken seriously.
