> Psychology is the study of the psyche of white male psychology students

Huh? Maybe my uni was an outlier / it is a UK thing, but there were ~99 female and 1 male psych students in my year. This was not considered unusual.

It's actually "WEIRD", Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic. The "white cis male" meme says more about GP than psychology.
This may support the point further xD
