In Stata 12, -margins- has new options for computing contrasts of margins.
These new features are documented in -[R] margins, contrast-.

For Robert's example above, simply add a contrast operator in the -over()-
option:

        . margins , over(r.sex) contrast

Very good. But the contrast option doesn't seem to add anything in this case, i.e

margins , over(r.sex)

seems to produce the exact same output as your command. Or am I missing something?
