    The pelvis is, in general, different between the human female and male skeleton. [14] [15] Although variations exist and there may be a degree of overlap between typically male or female traits, [14] [15] the pelvis is the most dimorphic bone of the human skeleton and is therefore likely to be accurate when using it to ascertain a person's sex ...
