Only "size" of them. Curve is always there because of skeletal structure, male skeleton have bones to go more narrower (my English is so bad today, heh) and muscles to go straight down, while female skeleton have an angle and pelvis is wider, but shorter, and muscles are curving around, and not going just at straight line: https://i.imgur.com/ljINpd7.png

Not the same but I found this:

In summary, we show that bone sexual dimorphism is already present at 6 years of age, with boys having stronger bones than girls, the relation of which is influenced by body composition and likely attributable to differential adaptation to mechanical loading.

One more nail in the coffin of the stupid idea that men and women can compete in sports.

TRA said "educate yourself".

We did. And now we have even more proofs against them :P

Yeah, and this is one of reasons why men are faster at running. Even having no testosteron and taking estrogen will not change basic body structure (I randomly was reminded about transwomen in sports). And it affects gait as well, so it is easy to say from behind where is man and where is woman, regardles of their looks.

Many of you may have seen that video which shows how easy it is to tell male and female movements apart. I recall that you only see the little points of light the video attaches to all the joints of drawn male and female body shapes. When they move, all you see against everything being dark is those little twinkling lights moving, and it is enough to tell which body is supposed to be male and which female.

I don't know how to turn off that skill which appears to be required now.
