It is not uncommon to hear people say “it’s a man’s job,” when referring to specific tasks. Although this statement is not true at all, it still has a certain basis inherent in human biology. The differences between the sexes do not only add up to our reproductive organs, but also the structure of our bodies, the type of hormones that are secreted, and the changes that have occurred over many years in the evolutionary processes. Today you’ll discover what the surprising biological differences are between men and women.

1. Men and women listen differently

When men listen, they use only the left part of their brain that is linked to language understanding, according to a study at Indiana University School of Medicine. It was found that women use both parts of the brain to listen to a conversation. This is why when talking to men it is important to be concise and clear, and for women, it is much easier to conduct detailed and lengthy conversations.
2. Men and women’s senses work differently

Men’s sense of smell and taste is less developed than most women’s, but their sense of vision is better. Researchers assess that this is a product of evolutionary processes because men were often h****rs, making it easier for them to observe movement, while women gathered food and used there sense of smell and taste more.

3. Men are more likely to be left handed

There are three times more left-handed men than left-handed women, and science has not yet found an explanation for this phenomenon. However, researchers at the Australian National University have found that left-handed people can process more information than right-handed people.
4. Men and women see differently in the dark

Women can see more things in the dark than men can. Men, on the other hand, don't see as well in the dark but can identify details equally at any distance.

5. Men have a physical advantage
Men can cope with exercise better than women, due to their blood volume. On average, men with normal body weight have 4.5-5.6 liters of blood in their bodies, while women with normal body weight have 3.4-3.9 liters of blood in their bodies. Moreover, men's blood is richer in hemoglobin and red blood cells, and all these differences cause more oxygen to reach their muscles during physical activity.
6. Only women suffer from cellulite
Because men and women have a different ratio of muscle, fat and connective tissue in their bodies, men do not suffer from cellulite. In general, men are born with more developed muscles than women, and their skin contains more collagen which helps it maintain its elasticity.
7. It is easier for men to sleep at night
The level of electrical activity in men’s brains decreases by 70% while sleeping, whereas in women it decreases by only 10%. The reason for this apparently lies in the history of human society. Men were h****rs and used to rest when they were home, while women who were at home regularly took care of the children at all hours.
8. It is harder for women to lose weight
Men's bodies burn more calories to supply energy to different muscles and organs. At the same time, men's testosterone levels are seven times higher than women, which increases metabolic rate, despite the fact that men's muscle mass is significantly higher than that of women’s.

9. It is easier for men to focus on moving objects
Men see objects in motion much better than stationary objects, probably because they were h****rs in the past and used to follow prey. Today it makes men notice and be more attracted to women dancing, as opposed to women sitting in front of them.
10. Men suffer more from abdominal fat
Men are more likely to suffer from abdominal fat because their bodies don’t accumulate fat under the skin as women’s bodies do, rather it’s stored between the internal organs in the abdominal area. A fatty belly is more dangerous and increases the risk of premature death, which can explain why women live longer than men.
11. Women have a stronger i****e s****m
Men have a weaker i****e s****m than women and are more likely to contract infectious diseases. The reason for this is high testosterone levels, which have an anti-inflammatory effect. Testosterone strengthens the genes that reduce inflammation, so the body tends to produce fewer antibodies for diseases that attack it. Women, on the other hand, develop more antibodies for disease, and therefore over time, they are less ill than men.
12. It is easier for men to hold it in
Men have a larger bladder, which needs to be emptied less often than women's. This is because women have more organs in the pelvic region, leaving less space for the bladder. An average male bladder can hold 800 ml before having to urinate urgently, while in women the bladder can contain 500 ml before it is necessary to empty it.

13. Men sweat more
Men's bodies contain 1.5 times more sebaceous and sweat glands than women's bodies do. This is why men's bodies tend to be oilier than women's, and they tend to suffer more from sweat stains on clothes.
14. Men are also hotter
Men are more sensitive to high temperatures, but on the other hand, they are more protected from low temperatures. This is because the average body temperature of men is higher than that of women due to their faster metabolic rate.
15. Women have a greater variety of genes in the body
Men are simpler than women genetically. Women have two X c********es while men have an X c********e and a Y c********e. An X c********e contains between 900 and 1,200 genes, while the Y c********e has only 78 genes, so biologically, the bodies of men are much less complex than women.
All these differences do not necessarily indicate that men or women are better or lesser in certain areas, but that they must face different challenges. Now that you know the biological differences between men and women, you can not only get to know yourself better but also your partner - share this information with them so they can learn something new today as well!

You forgot that women can tolerate pain better then men.......Also women can have babies and men cant.....Thats where pain tolerance comes in...Men try to squeeze out watermelon from a small apple.....

A few other observations: By the way, I'm left-handed, and I'm a woman. (Several of our recent presidents have been left-handed. Even Obama, I think.) Anybody know this one? Pretty sure Reagan and Clinton are. And I think, one or both Bush presidents?

I was a scuba diver for 10 years in Hawaii. I rescued three other divers, all of them male. My husband, who was 6'4" tall, and a smoker, got so furious that he made me dive with a different 'buddy.' See, women have a layer of fat under the skin that men do not have. This is what causes much of the pleasing contours of women. My husband would come up, totally out of air, and I'd still have a thousand pounds. While he churned toward shore on the surface, I'd be swimming on my back, resting. Right under him. That extra layer of fat under the skin keeps women from having to expend energy to stay warm. Even skinny women have it. My Chinese/Caucasian 'buddy' and I would be able to stay under longer. Since I didn't smoke, I could also swim further underwater, without scuba gear, than my husband. He would also emerge from a long dive, cold and needing a jacket, immediately. I was fine without one.
But there is one cautionary note regarding women scuba diving. Nitrogen, which is 73% of air, gets into the body, and can affect deep tissues more so than those near the surface. Women in late pregnancy should not dive. It could affect their fetuses.
Anyway, you guys are fun to be the opposite sex of!

There is a funny and wonderful YouTube video available, titled "The difference between men and women's brains." If you haven't seen it, look it up, and watch both versions. Has several great laughs.

BTW, I could use a bit of advice: My old barometer finally broke. My new one doesn't have the same numbering system. It's in mm. Anybody know the setting for an altitude of 4,700 feet?? In the old one, there is one needle, which, once set, never needs to move. At sea level, it's 29.994. Here, it's around 29.985. I have an illness that causes me to be sensitive to weather. So, if the needle that moves is rising or falling, I can just shrug and go "Oh. It's just the weather. I can beat this." My pain increases when it is rising or falling. So, what should be the setting for the needle that never moves, once it is set, when the values are expressed as 'mmHg?"

nice post though,thank you

After looking for you as well as for myself, here's what I found. mmhg means amount of mercury in millimeters Hg being the chemical symbol for mercury. Sea level in pounds is 14.7 so 4700 would be shown as 319.7 and sea level in mmhg is 29.92 so 4700 would convert to 636. Can someone validate this for me? I hope I'm right and I hope it helps. But I have to assume that you live at 4700 feet above sea level, so why don't you visit the local weather for an average reading in mmhg? Once there, any deviation would show. I'm not well versed in math but I tried.


BTW...mmhg is obsolete and now is read in Pascals. mmhg is still used mostly in blood pressure.

There are other 'differences' in men and women that I dearly LOVE...tee hee hee...I shouldn't say women, I should say my wife.

NikoliMc

Well, the 14.7 psi at sea level is right, and every 33 feet underwater, you gain another 14.7 pounds. My scuba instructor made us learn the book stuff as well as the in-water sk**ls. But the rest left me confused. I'm a good proofreader, but balancing my checkbook is a challenge!
And, the barometer I bought is brand new, so I don't get the change. I just want one figure I can count on! So, somebody somewhere is using these readings. Must be in Europe?
I did hear a funny - an expensive one. NASA and the European Space Agency cooperated on sending another mission to Mars. But the several million dollar mission missed Mars altogether. Seems we were using feet and inches, and they were on the metric system.

Yes, I do live at 4,700 feet. I was born in California, lived there back and forth a good part of my life, then when I could not work, I was driving down a short street to my home, set near a cul-de-sac. Two guys decided to have a shootout over a drug deal, one ran across the street, and I got caught between them! They took the back window out of my car, cops later asked me if any of my car windows were open at the time, I replie "Yes, the one right by my head!" The look they gave each other spoke volumes. They found the broken glass in my car, but no bullet.
After they left, I decided "To hell with this! If I can't work around here any more,I don't have to live here any more!" Sold the small home, moved back to Nevada to retire. Then my wondeful dog didn't get fleas any more. They can't survive our winters. So, I stayed on.
Besides, I love the sea, and the desert. But at least, when I live in the desert, I don't have to watch the ocean, knowing I can't go
back. And nobody shoots at me, there is no grafitti, and no crime.

Don't blame you for moving. I do armed security and I'm constantly aware that 'something' can happen at any time. It only takes once, ya know.

There's a great quote that goes, "Being under sentence of death concentrates the mind wonderfully." So does being shot at. That incident happened in Paramount, CA. A suburb of LA, and only 6 miles by street to McDonnell Douglas. I could avoid the freeway to get to work.
Behind my home there was a small park, the LA river, (more like a concrete canyon,) Highway 405, and then Compton. Which went up in smoke and flames after the police officers were acquitted in Simi Valley, of beating Rodney King. That poor Caucasian truck driver, innocent of doing anything wrong, you saw him being beaten on TV, and then the offenders doing a dance. I called a friend who still lived there, and in that neighborhood, where multiple races lived in a good deal of harmony, there were men patrolling the streets at night to protect their homes. They were lucky the vandals didn't cross 405 or the river.
I was already safely here in Nevada when that happened. Watching it on TV. The poor truck driver has never fully recovered, and has to survive on disability to this day.
Even at 2 or 3 in the morning, the surrounding areas were never quiet. Being that close to highway 405, there was always the hum of traffic, sounds of guns being fired. I got so I could tell the caliber of gun being used, from pistols to automatic weapons. We were just south of Rosecrans, and I often called 911 to report collisions or automatic weapons fire. One police officer later told me that, getting ambulances and police moving before other calls, got them to the site in time to save lives.
Rodney King got a huge settlement from the city. it did not teach him a lesson, and he died an alcoholic several years later. Good riddance! On New Year's eve, police officers in their cruisers found a place to park, UNDER something. My dog was heard to give a loud
YIPE and ran to me. A bullet fell through my patio cover, and chipped the concrete right by her muzzle. She came in bleeding. I h**ed the ever-present graffiti, the crime, the fact that I had to look over my shoulder just to walk into a store. Recent events prove I was smart to do that, and to get out when I could. I live in a Senior housing place now, my rent is $399 a month. It's a place for seniors to have independent living. I can and do drive, and about once a month, I chuck a cooler in the car, and drive 81 miles to Cedar City UT, and load up on groceries at a new Walmart there. We have enough amenities here so that I am comfortable. Our winters are decent, hardly ever do we have big snow storms. If we get snow, it melts off in a day or so. Though it does get down below freezing sometimes. It's beautiful here, too. Even our sagebrush stays green all summer, well up into September. The farmers and ranchers here get a good two or three crops a year. After they harvest, they turn cattle and horses out on the land, they glean the remnants, and add their own fertilizer. Then they prepare the ground again, and plant more crops. Mostly alfalfa and corn. No crop dusters or weed k**ler needed.
My granddaughter and her husband are moving soon to San Diego. I wish they'd go to Washington state. I used to love San Diego, but it's too close to the border now, and their rent for a ONE bedroom apartment is $1,900 a month!

Sounds sweet, beautiful country and temperate weather. I live in Chattanooga Tennessee, right at the borders of Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia, nicknamed the TAG area. Ity's my homeplace and I love it here. It's also beautiful with mountains on three sides. We have an attraction on Lookout Mtn called Rock City and there is a point where you can see 7 states(on a clear day). We also have a LOT of War Between the States history. The Battle of Chickamauga , and the Battle above the Clouds. The Chickamauaga battle ended on Missionary Ridge when the Union troops scaled the ridge and The Confederates couldn't lower their cannon barrels enough to fire on the attackers. The Battle Above the Clouds was fought on Lookout Mtn. We have a temperature inversion here ( meaning the warm air hugs the ground while the cold air stays on top). The battle was literally fought above the very low clouds on the mountain! We are also famous for train and river business. Chattanooga is nicknamed Choo Choo City, partly because of a renovated depot called the Chattanooga Choo Choo. In It's heyday, 66 trains per day arrived in Chattanooga. And of course Glenn Millers song, The Chattanooga Choo Choo. The Tennessee River runs right in the middle of the city and we do a LOT of river business. We were falling into decay a few years back and local entrepreneurs came up with the idea of building a big aquarium. I thought at the time what a waste of money. But it was a huge success and started the renovation of downtown Chattanooga. We have a dam nearby and a River Walk that goes from the dam towards Chattanooga for 11.5 miles. If ever you want to visit the south, this is THE place to do it.
As for trouble, we try to keep the good and the bad separated. About 4 years ago, I was working for a Christian College in a part of town that grew 'bad' around it. We heard nightly gunfire. The last night I worked there, we counted 22 consecutive gunshots. People weren't shooting each other, but were shooting to let the other neighborhoods know,'we got the guns here.'
But police make EVERY effort to keep tourists safe and away from the bad parts of town.
We have really high humidity here so summers are hot and winters are cold. We have a good snow on average about once every 3 years. ( Lots of other little snows that don't stay around) I'm gonna post some pictures for you. They are pretty much self explanatory except the geometric design is the roof inside the Choo Choo. It was and still is elegant. The pointed roofs are the Tennessee Aquarium. The big bend in the river (map) is called Moccasin Bend and was the sight of one of the biggest Cherokee Indian ...not a village...more like a city. It was huge. We are listed as one of the best places to live in the country. Man, I'm long winded. Hope you enjoy.

Aside from the monthly trips to Cedar City, I just cannot travel anymore. Your pictures of your area are beautiful. I'm jealous!
One thing happened last week that gave me some comfort about driving: I was driving home from a small city 14 miles from my home, and some joker crossed a double line on a blind curve, and as I came around, there he was trying to pass another car! Since speed limit in open areas of Nevada is usually 70, he had to be going much faster to pass the other car. I slammed on the brakes and dove for the slender shoulder, the driver being passed also hit his brakes, giving i***t driver just enough room to squeak between us! after I quit shaking, I was happy that my reaction times were still good. I hope and pray I will know when it is time to quit driving. (I just turned 80 this year) I never want to be a danger to other people.
I just bought a new computer, and so far, my photos are still locked inside it. Can't email or forward photos yet, but will send some when I can do that. Your area is quite a bit more beautiful than mine, but still, the desert on a moonlit night is gorgeous. Even on moonless nights, the Milky Way is a glorious band from one horizon to another. I go out alone at night to places where I am completely safe, and love the night sky as much as the days. What makes it so beautiful is that there is almost no 'light pollution' to dim the sight of the stars.
I've outlived many of my correspondents, and would enjoy trading stories of our places, if that would be OK with you. If not that's OK
too. My email address is: zz.tursiops80@lcturbonet.com. Our local server gives us a choice of two blistering speeds for our internet:
1.5 Mbps, or, with DSL, ten! I do have some pretty good pics of our area, including our "Panaca Springs" which is 84 degrees year around. Of course, we only swim in it during the summer. Trying to swim in the winter would be OK, but you could freeze mid-stride trying to get back to your car! My nickname is Penny.

maximus Loc: Chattanooga, Tennessee

Hi, Penny,
Of course we can share stories and pictures. I have a big interest in our universe, and our own little solar system, so I am jealous of your view of the Milky Way. We have a lot of light pollution around here. My wife and I went several years ago as far away from lights as we could and watched the Leonid Meteor Storm, a once in a 100 years event. We saw around 1,500 meteors. One left a green trail and blew up, but no sound. I was told we didn't see that but we did. Anyway I'm 65 and my wife Sandy is 68. My address is morphius1953@gmail.com. Hey! My mom passed at 93 due to neglect by her doctor, so you have a pretty good way to go yet! We are both Christians, and we love the Lord Jesus, we love our church where I am the music director. I would definitely try Panaca Springs in the winter if I could. I would just have a way to get dry and warm after the dip which would be like bathwater, even at cold temps.
