Dear Karla,

I think the question was discussed on this list some years ago but I don't 
remember the details -- a search in the archives could help you.

Surely, 'sex' is not a (species-level) evolving trait. Maybe try to analyse 
'sexual dimorphism' if the trait is present in both sexes. If the trait is 
present in only one sex (e.g., antler size), I think a good approach would be 
to analyse males/females separately.

Best,

Emmanuel
