I personally have never seriously considered this view:
In due time, I think Nell will get us into the individual "lemon" passages, but I think this might be enough for us to get the discussion going.

What if the Bible had been translated by an all female translation committee? Would we be discussing different "lemon translations" that reflected a female gender bias that men would like to see revisited and corrected when appropriate?
The goal of the translators is to "get it right" without bias. K. Bushnell discusses this in her book "God's Word to Women."
