I knew they tended to not count female children in some cases, but I thought that was limited to highlanders in Montenegro and Albania and a few other places where they had vendetta deep into XX century and were organized in clans/tribes/families. But now I hear it was so from the beginning, that they didn't count female children for the last couple of millennia, from the alleged first generation? Ah, the things we take for granted!

At first, I thought you were just yanking her chain - but - now looks like this is a problem for you. There are both men and women that the Bible does not mention. I don't see a problem with that. The Bible is not meant to be a historical record (althought is can be used as such.) It is meant to show us that we need a Saviour and to point us to Him.
