Women are “the weaker sex”. If you’re living in a male-dominated world that just coincidentally happens to define “strength” by things that men happen to be good at.
But it turns out there’s quite a few important ways in which women are the physically stronger sex…
This is a really cool summary of the research! It is easy to assume that women are physically weaker, but it’s important to remember that there are a number of types of strength, though unfortunately some seem to be valued more than others in society.
Physiology is cool and this was a fun read.
