Yes, I understand that the means may differ significantly but the variances are fairly large so there is lots of overlap between sexes, just as the article linked by OP discusses. Although, there are many characteristics and they all aren't going to exhibit the same spreads. I wonder if some have significantly smaller variances. The characteristic I keep noticing is how rough young boys are when they play compared to young girls. My small sample shows a very tight variance; young girls are much softer in their play compared to boys. Is that cultural conditioning at such a young age?
