Hold down the Control key (Command key on MacOS) and click the A key to select all of the data in the worksheet.
Select the Home tab, then the Editing group Sort & Filter -> Custom Sort.
In the pop-up window, make sure that My list has headers box is checked and then choose gender from the pull-down menu next to Sort by. Click OK.
Now select all of the data in columns B and C, select the Insert tab and in the Charts group choose Scatter.
Choose the first scatterplot option (Scatter with only Markers).
Now we have a scatterplot, but the data is all on the right of the plot. To fix this:
Right-click on the x-axis, and choose Format Axis from the pop-up menu.
Make sure that Axis Options is selected on the left, and…
