Skeleton system consists of a framework of bones and a few cartilages. This system has a significant role in movement shown by the body. Bones and cartilages are specialised connective tissues.
Male Skeleton vs Female Skeleton
Male Skeleton
1. Pelvic cavity narrower and less roomier.
2. Coccyx less movable.
3. Sacrum long, narrower with concavity.
4. Pelvis heavy and thick
5. Joint surface large.
6. Greater pelvis deep.
7. Pubic arch less than 900.
8. Ischial tuberosity turned inward.
9. Obturator foramen rounded.
10. Pelvic inlet and outlet smaller.
11. Sciatic notch narrow.
12. Anterior superior iliac spines closer.

    So how accurate is using just the skeletal structure differences to determine male or female? For instance, if you look at Justin Bieber's structure, it is that of a female. And looking at Michelle Obama's structure, it is that of a male.

    Just a Few Words About Your "Difference Between Male and Female Skeleton"

    Hi,

    I just read your post http://www.majordifferences.com/2014/03/difference-between-male-and-female.html the information mentioned in that article is very nice and useful.

    I have seen that there is a word "ischial tuberosity" where there is no enough information there and I would like to bring to your notice that there is a lot of information on same word at http://ehealthhall.com/ischial-tuberosity.html which will be useful to your loyal readers.

    What do you think of ? May be you will find place to mention in this post/ Future Writing.

    Regards,
    Dr. amarendra
