Differences between the sexes still exist?

[Kisanzi]

There's a 5% growth difference between Male (ATP/HP/ATA) & Female (TP/DEF/EVA). Genders have a 105% growth to their specialty 3 stats and a 95% growth to the other 3. It's a very small difference in the big picture after you add race/class/equipment into the mix. So it's good in the fact that no gender is shafted on tech restrictions or ability balance. The only factors that might make a small difference is gender exclusive equipments in the future and of course the random luck everyday.
