People's heights change over time too. Men and women can nevertheless have different average heights.
Yes, but I've heard theories and read studies in the past that suggest the differences in sexuality change over time, also. Like, studies have documented that women can go back and forth from being gay and straight, while men might go gay later in life but never change back. Supposedly there is some mental rewiring that goes on alongside this, however not as something that has been quantifiably measured, only qualitatively observed.
I think this AI processing could be a useful tool in further analysis against this and other hypotheses, but I worry that given the emotionally charged discussions around transgender nature the results will be far too easily misconstrued.
Height is pretty consistent. You grow until adolescence, then maybe you shrink a bit later in life. Men are generally taller than women, but only on average. That doesn't really have anything to do with neurology.
