Women Are Biologically Stronger Than Men, Study Finds
Unilad ^ | January 9, 2018 | Josh Teal

A new study has found that women are biologically stronger than men.

Despite ‘history’ teaching us that men come up trumps when it comes to lifting boxes, sawing down trees and winning pub fights all is not as it seems.

The study by Proceedings of the National Academy of Scientists of the United States of America reveals that women are actually more likely to survive a life threatening crisis than men.

Researchers came to this conclusion by comparing the death rates of men and women who were pitted against famines, epidemics and slavery.

The only two exceptions were the plantation slaves in 19th century Trinidad and freed Liberian slaves around the same time.

Does this mean that women can play men's sports and win?

That must be why there are so many that pass SEAL training and Ranger school.

Hmmm. Depending on what they mean, isn’t it obvious? Men take riskier jobs, engage in riskier pursuits. (Including downright stupid ones) Anybody remember what happened on the Titanic?

This observation was in my Physiology textbook in 11th grade. For PC purposes I suppose it is NEW.

O.K. one more. Women and children first is a good policy. Men deserve the peace and quiet in their last moments.

Silly article. Women have had a greater life expectancy than men for as far back as anyone has measured. Nothing new.

They said biologically stronger, not stronger in muscles.

Species need females to survive. More females than males, anyway.

TRUE.

I’ve seen it. My GF is stronger than me when she sees a shoe sale at the mall. I cant stop her from taking my credit card and maxing them out afterwards. Makes PMS look like a Disney movie.

I thought this was well known. During a siege or disaster the last people alive will be the fertile women - they are designed to survive - down to having more body fat. The author of this article should be slapped.

Men have historically spent their energies protecting women from danger, therefore subjecting themselves to the bulk of the risk and dangerous activity that can result in fatality.

And as someone else just pointed out.... we also have a tendency to do more stupid sh*t, we have more “hold muh beer” moments...

Reminds me of an old joke:

Why do Husbands die before their Wives do?

Because they WANT to!
