> We show that sex differences in gene expression and splicing are widespread in adult human brain, being detectable in all major brain regions and involving 2.5% of all expressed genes.
While I don't have a similar number, inter-racial differences of gene expression will be quite similar, if not even higher. This is the reason why RNAseq experiments these days in some cases can even find opposing evidence, given the genetic background of the subjects, such as in the recent bladder cancer publications regarding the role of STAG2 [1].
Please do not claim (or, rather, proselytize...) the "evidence" for sex differences based on a Nature article most people taking positions in that respect probably do not even quite comprehend.
