The 2011 NEC ("electric code") has specific details on GFCI detection-sensitivity, where it lays out three categories for mA threshold before tripping: man, woman, child. For example, the common "residential 120V outlet with buttons" is a >5mA detector, which could still likely kill a child (but not adult, definitely not a man) before tripping. I presume the modern NEC still has similar phrasing (I am retired — don't know, don't care), however "offended" certain groups might claim despite technical realities: avg woman is physically less-stout than avg male.
