I guess that's gonna happen once these things become so commonplace as not to qualify to be "news". So... they're working on it I guess :D

To clarify: I don't doubt women can do science, just empirically, they don't get to do it as often (at this level) as men.

There is actually nothing really in the BBC story about being a women other than in the context of her getting attention on twitter, but barely that. I think whoever changed the title might have been confused as well. It doesn't refer to woman as gender but woman as subject as in e.g. "the man walked his dog".
