That doesn't sound right...
From what I remember "woman" comes from "wifman", which is a compound of "wif" and "man", and back then "man" still refered to male and female persons, and "wer" and "wif" were male and female persons respectively.
Fun fact: my memory is shitty. Looks like you're right except that "man" wasn't gendered at the time.
But I included that, didn't I?
Or do you mean rather than male and female, I should have said persons regardless of gender? I guess that makes more sense.
Fun fact: I can't fucking read either.
