You say that it's worth talking about sex-based gender differences because they exist, but I'm not sure I buy it. Is sex more of a determinant than other factors in personality? Should I expect that my ideas are "male" more than that they are "brown-haired" or "grew up watching thundercats" or "ate too much peanut butter today"?
I remain skeptical that there's a good reason to make a big deal out of gender.
ETA: was this downvoted to oblivion because you think these questions aren't relevant, or because you disagree with my conclusion?
