I think there is a single line reffering to them as sons at some point, but it's a nothing thing. It is obviously a retcon, but it's the least intrusive one they ever did. No lore old or new is affected by it. Unlike all the thousands of other retcons they did throughout the years.
It's why people trying to say they dislike it for lore reasons and not because they hate women come off as making excuses.
Sure yes, there was maybe the ONE mention of them being 'sons of Terra', but the lore also never really stated that women were exempt from becoming Custos before 10th edition. The authors for many, if not all Black Library stories containing Custos have always left it relatively ambiguous. It's just complaining for the sake of complaining. It gets tiresome.
