  A paleontologist is able to immediately tell if a human skeleton is of
a male or a female, so there are definite clear differences.

  I'm somewhat convinced that most western Europeans (or at least most
Finns, as I can't really speak for all Europeans) can name and locate
(or at least get close) on a nameless map more US states than most
Americans can name and locate European countries. Principally Hollywood,
and secondarily general geographical education, do have their influence.

  Now the Canadian provinces are much harder. They are not very prominently
used in movies not TV shows, so...

A pathoentologist probably examines skeletons somewhat larger than 7 
inches. ;-)

  The differences are not that small.

It's not hard even with the skin on. Press your fingers to your eyebrow and 
rub up and down a bit, and you'll feel a little bit of a ridge. Now do that 
to your wife/girlfriend/secretary(slap! ;-) and you'll notice there is no 
ridge there. For example.
