Well, I have to question why it is we notice those facts in the first place anyway, while there is so much sense-data we simply ignore.

The average woman is not smaller until the average man until we have already defined "man" and "woman" in such a way that the people who fall into the first category or bigger than the people who fall into the second. I think language is always-already suspect.
