Differences of the Sexes

*bump*

How about : every cell of the body is different?

Is that enough?

Lots of medical conditons, diseases and sicknesses correspond to the 2 different chromosomes and hormones - like osteoporosis, spinal stenosis, color blindness, balding, hearing sensitivity, etc.

Probably the biggest difference that you are looking for, besides obvious things (like a lower center of gravity means smaller feet for women) is the hypothalamus.

You might also want to see the CRT's of how female and male brains process information.

Since every cell in the body is different, and since the brains process differently, what is amazing, is not what is different, but what very few things are similar (not the same, but similar) - like both sexes having 2 arms, 2 feet, one head, etc.

Some anatomical differences are profound, but not so obvious. Male and female skeletons are easy to distinguish if the skull, pelvis, or a thighbone is present. Of course, chromasome testing (previous post) clinches it!

Many differences in the skull: forehead protrudes on males, skull is smaller, thinner, less brain capacity, hypothalamus smaller, hairline farther back on males, chin pointed on females and more square on males, nose thinner/smaller on females, female head skin has less nerves per cc and is softer with more fat,

Pelvis on female is round, to allow baby to get through

I dont remember differences in the thighbones I have seen??

The angle of the femur's ball joint in females is closer to 90 degrees than the male ball joint, spreading women's legs farther apart near the pelvis (for childbirth). This is why women have a gap between their upper thighs even when their feet are together.
