“Women have:

... 45-50% less upper body strength and 25-30% less aerobic capacity, which is essential for endurance...”

True, donna, but don’t we also have much more strength in our thighs than men do? And, because of our higher percentage of body fat, can’t we endure lower temps, like cold water, a bit longer than men?

I really like being a woman. I have talents and abilities that men generally do not have, and happily, I am married to a man who respects these, and listens carefully to me when I exercise them.

Life is just the best when men and women work together as a team, using the unique talents of each to the maximum, and teaching our children to do the same.

“Body size can also affect your cold tolerance. Short, small people have a large surface area-to-body mass ratio. This means that, relative to their size, they have a greater percentage of body in contact with the environment and will absorb cold or heat more quickly. Smaller can be chillier.”

By the way, there is no evidence that women have been exercising that muscle since Feminism replaced morality, LOL.
