Moderate differences in means between populations leads to big differences in relative ratios in the tails.

Yes, I try to explain this by comparing to height. There's only 7% difference in average height differences between men and women and many women who are taller than the average man but nearly everyone who hits their head on a beam six foot off the ground will be a man.
