It could just be the industries I've been in, but men tend to be the ones who no call/no show, who have more actual conflicts with co-workers (not trivial stuff like taking someone's seat in a meeting, but actual "escort them from the building" problems), and who generally try to get by with less. Hell, even when I was in construction, I worked with two or three women out of a crew of 20ish. The women worked harder than the guys, always showed up sober (half the guys were still up from the night before) and complained less about breaks or working late.
The times have changed a lot. I am coming across people (men and women) that have 0 clue what hard work means.
I know in the Military, I have seen men do more of the heavy lifting jobs, while the women would just kind of hang around.
It would also depend on the job as well.
My experience is definitely different though than yours.
I think though, Fred will allow you to use your experience and anecdotal evidence, because it is in line with his stance.
Mine is just anecdotal and doesn't prove anything.
