The concept that we would have "men philosophers" and "women philosophers", or "bachelor philosophers" and "married philosophers", and that their philosophical theories would be tainted by their sex or marital status is as bizarre sounding to me as if someone were to talk about "German science" and "English science" as being inherently different from each other because of their ethnicity.
It is very likely that the type of people who actively study and write academic philosophy (especially in pre-modern times), were very likely rather "neurodivergent" at best, but more probably on the spectrum.
