I don't think women being the hunters is actively supported as a theory (though I've heard it before)?
That said, it's hard to prove one way or the other - yes the women have "hunting injuries", or another way to put it, they have injuries incurred from a violent episode with an animal (shocking for a prehistoric person, I know); this doesn't prove that a woman was or wasn't hunting - it just shows some injuries she received.
It also doesn't show that women weren't the gathers, it might just show that occasionally women did hunt if necessary - which only makes sense, should everyone starve if all the healthy men are incapacitated?

The way it's presented and read is really just up to the biases of the person presenting or reading it.

That said, the "women were only home-makers" thing is essentially a myth for the most part. I believe that, while women were taking care of the house hold chores, she would often help with the men's work too (think of the farmer's wife, they'd often help on the fields after doing the house chores). Women were often the families accountant too, and men only got to spend the amount of money the wife designated (something that japan often practices with their housewives - the men only get their "pocket money" from the wife).

So this too can really be up to interpretation based on the person's biases. Women were something of a jack of all trades throughout history, and men were specialised throughout most of it; that's how I read it.

Yeah, some people cling to the few archeological findings involving female hunters as if their lives depended on it, but they only prove that it wasn't impossible for women to hunt. The norm was still that men were the hunters.

And I mean, how is that even surprising? Women get pregnant. They create a stronger bond with their kids than men. They will naturally tend to stay with their kids while the men risk themselves more.

But in the context of the chapter, the point still has a purpose, which is to say that claiming that men/women have to be a certain way because everyone in the past was like that is obviously wrong.

Honestly, Tsubasa seems like the most sensible endgame candidate.

I'm going to kill you (...). Hope you're looking forward to it.
Not gonna lie, that actually made me laugh.

It's wild that she decided he should be the CEO because he stood up for Tsubasa at dinner, but never checked his qualifications or work history. He'd be a terrible CEO. Grandma's on that dogma.
We actually don't know what his qualifications are at the moment so he may not be a terrible CEO. He seems good at thinking through and resolving issues a quality needed as a CEO. The experts that would be under him provide the context and data for his decision making. So at best we don't know if he would be good or bad as a CEO.

DomeKano mangaka writing a harem feels very much like pornhwa artists changing from korean sauce genre to harem. Going where the viewership and money is. Not complaining though
Waiiiitwaitwait. This was the domekano author?

quick check

Oh god it is. Alright, let’s see where this goes, i guess. Surely she can’t put them all into a coma, right?

So the grandma switched her mind just cause she thinks it took courage to say all that? That's all it took?

If it wasn't obvious the moment she appeared, this chapter cements the fact that Tsubasa is the best girl out of the group.

So then enlighten us. If you don't want words put in your mouth, what about this manga is so scandalously feminist that you had to drop it now and how does alleging you probably knew that this series was written by a woman and stars a cast of mostly women who mostly don't conform to traditional Japanese societal gender expectations and yet you were somehow blindsided by the fact that it would take a view that isn't dismissive of or patronizing to women to the extent that it took you 13 chapters to decide that its tone and content are what they've been the whole time  not make you look like a dumbass?
Bra I think he is just trolling
