Because the word 'history' is derived from the Greek origin word 'historia' — which means 'to inquire'. Not everything is about the patriarchy. Why isn't it called Herstory?
The meme is likely considered humorous or clever because it plays on the modern discussion about gender inclusivity and language. It pokes fun at the term 'history' by suggesting an alternative 'herstory' to confront a perceived patriarchal bias in language, while the top text clarifies that the word 'history' is not gendered as it derives from a Greek word meaning 'to inquire'. The humor arises from the juxtaposition of the language critique with the etymological explanation.
