UPGRADING RENAISSANCE MAN TO INCLUDE WOMEN

I like the idea of being a renaissance man or a jack of all trades, but with XX chromosomes, neither term fit. Then I came across a term from the greek that applied to Leonardo Da Vinci: polymath.
This term, in latin (homo universalis), is the only one that describes an individual whose known and problem solving skills spans a number of subjects, without suggesting gender.

I am proud to call myself a polymath!
