I really doubt there's a gender-based difference in shape rotation that is based on inherited genetic factors and not on early childhood development and education. This is in sharp contrast to gender-based differences in strength development, i.e. I'm sure a cohort of male teenagers would develop more muscle mass than a female cohort when exposed to identical training regimens for several years, whereas I'd be very surprised if boys and girls exposed to identical mathematical training programs for several years displayed such clear gender bias in outcomes.
