I find it interesting that it's implied that non-white men are more considerate of women's periods: > There are very few senior people in science and medicine

While this quote is likely true and uses a now common phrase of "white men" when one wants to highlight exclusionary approach, this would be better served with highlighting a more obvious group that has trouble remembering menstrual cycles: all men.
Basically, that's what they were going for but through phrase getting ingrained in the modern lingo, focus is misplaced (not by much).
I just find it funny how words can easily get a life of their own.
