Have you done an analysis of church lessons and discovered this empirically? Is the number of lessons on women truly disproportionate to the number of stories in the scripture? Must it be otherwise to properly teach the doctrine?

This question reminds me of the Supreme Court debates. There are those who believe that if the 9 people on the court don't perfectly reflect the demographics of America, then their perspective is necessarily flawed.
