Only men get hung up on this? Mistakes like this are limited to cozies? Seriously?

I've been a practicing attorney for years and you know who gets more legal things wrong than any genre writer I know? John Grisham.

I'm not saying that these mistakes aren't there. Where I have real issues is the seeming assumptions being made here that only female authors make mistakes and only in certain genres. This just smells an awful lot like gatekeeping to me.
