Boys and girls, sweet and bitter?

I heard today that boy's tongues have taste buds that are more sensitive to bitter tastes, and that girl's tongues have more prominent "sweet" taste buds. Is this true?

Studies of sex differences suggest that male and female infants do not differ in sweet preference, but that older boys and men prefer higher concentrations of sweet compared with women
