Wow. So men and women are so distinct that you can even differentiate between them by their fingerprints?
That surprised me too.
For anyone else wondering:
Female fingerprints typically contain more densely packed ridges than male prints in the same area. These measurements were then compared against ridge density patterns found in contemporary Egyptian populations. ... The sex could not be determined for children.
That is so cool!
