Gender differences between men and women have been known since antiquity. Man are more masculine (manly), and women are more feminine. Not only are their physical bodies different, but there are significant character differences as well. This makes sense, because God made men and women "in his image" (Genesis 1:27) so as to reflect his divine nature. (Romans 1:20)
Although there are social variations apparent in different nations and times in history, broadly speaking it is possible to list traits which define masculinity and femininity.
