predicting sex from personality

src/main.rs

Given d values of sex differences in Big Five personality traits, how easy is it to predict someone's sex from measurements of their personality using a naïve Bayes model?? (I hope it's hard, but the data will decide.)

My friend Sophia points out that I'm doing it wrong: you can't use residuals for sampling; you need to actually use the correlation matrix. But the paper reports that, too (Table 3).
