How many more bones do women have then men?

Human beings (men women and children) all have the same number of bones, although children have more bones which are unfused with their neighbours than adults. If there were a difference, TV shows like "CSI" or "Bones" would simply count the bones of a crime scene skeleton to determine the sex of the victim. As it is, they have to look for minor differences such as wider pelvises and less prominent features. These shows also look for the degree of fusion of bones, wear and tear on the joints etc. to guesstimate the age. Some anthropologists feel that there is a different "feel" to the bones of men and women, insisting that the skull of a man, even in ancient times, feels "rougher". The folk lore that men have less bones than women comes from the Biblical myth of creation where one of Adam's ribs was taken to form the first woman.
