This really depends on your beliefs in if gender discrimination is as big of a deal as racial discrimination. The 14th amendment is the Equal Protection Clause, it was mainly for the slaves that had been freed in the U.S after the civil war. It basically forbids the states to restrict basic rights of citizens without going through the process of law or being protected by the law. But has recently been used in cases to of gender discrimination.
I believe it is perfectly justified for the 14th amendment to be acted in cases of gender discrimination. The 14th amendment does not have to be dedicated completely to race, but can have multiple purposes and be dedicated to gender discrimination as well. Because the 14th amendment does not mention race in its context, but mentions that basic rights shall not be stripped from citizens.

Explanation:
The scientific method is self correcting in the sense that, it involves coming up with an idea, then making an hypothesis, then making the observation which shall be tested against the idea. Further there is experimentation to confirm the validity of the hypothesis.
All of the above are testing mechanisms, that scientist use to provoke their idea with the real world facts, in the process, the idea might prove wrong and thereby shall have self corrected.
Scientific knowledge is cynical in the sense that, at each stage, we expect to prove the hypotheses wrong.
