Females, like males, typically have 24 ribs. The human rib cage is comprised of 12 pairs of ribs, totaling 24 individual ribs. Although there is a widespread misconception that females have one less rib than males stemming from the biblical story of Eve's creation, there is no scientific evidence to support this.
While some individuals may be born with more or fewer ribs due to genetic variations, this is not related to sex.
