"The mass of things called nanmu invented the thing called fegboixa'e" , 
maybe 
"Men invented angry ball hand" but both names take on odd meanings here 
(assuming that "fegboixa'e" has a meaning I recognize -- boxing glove?). In 
any case, assuming that fegboixa'e is some real thing, I suppose that the 
inventors were what we would call men, unless they are what we would call 
women. There aren't a lot of alternatives.
