Neural pathways also differ noticeably, with females having far more links crossing from their right and left brain

This makes men, on average better at motor skills and logical reasoning, whilst making women better at emotional understanding and words.

... and then there’s hormones which also differ between men and women pretty noticeably.

It’s not helpful to pretend gender doesn’t exist. It does. And some male-borns have brains which resemble the typical female brains and vice versa. It’s something that will always happen.

This doesn’t really have anything to do with the OP though. Of course babies have a sex. The labour woman was daft saying that. She probably meant babies don’t have a gender. She would’ve been close to correct.
