Abstract
Androgyny is an expression of relative masculinity and femininity in body-build. Tanner (1962) states “Androgyny can be perhaps best measured by means of scales constructed so as to give the best discrimination between men and women, and the simplest of such scales measures a masculinity score as 3 Biacromial—1 Bi-iliac diameter. This score gives men a mean of around ninety-three units with a standard deviation of about five, and women a mean of about seventy-eight with a similar standard deviation”.
