I can think of only one trait that is exclusively male, and only one
that is exclusively female (I refer here to human males and
females).

Male:  siring a child (includes producing sperm, etc)

Female: bearing a child (includes the menstrual cycle, etc)

(there have been documented instances of men nursing children)

As far as I'm concerned, though there may be sex-linked TENDENCIES
toward certain traits (agressivness, nurturing, etc.)  no traits but
the above two are EXCLUSIVE property of either sex.
