This debate is old. I must be the only forum member who maintains that they're all female figures. Whenever I've said this, someone has come forward and shown some figures that look masculine. And that could be true, but it would be purely for the author's amusement, tired of drawing so many women.
It would be a total lack of coherence if in a codex where we see more than 500 female figures there were only a few male ones. If the author's intention was to draw human figures in general, there would be at least 200 male figures, or 100. But that's not the case, because the intention to draw female figures is very clear, which has to do with the conception of the book and what the authors want to convey, which I omit to say because I already said it and I don't want to repeat myself.
