It's official: Men are the "weaker" sex
Scientists have finally put an end to the age-old battle of the sexes, by claiming that men are the weaker sex.
Professor Marek Glezerman, a gender-based medicine expert, examined 66,000 births at Israel's Rabin Medical Centre between 1995 and 2006, and concluded that baby boys are more at risk of complications in the womb and more likely to have difficult deliveries, reports The Daily Express. And the gender gap remains when they grow up, as men are more vulnerable to infections and less able to withstand disease than women, research suggests. In the study, which has been presented to the Israel Society for Gender Based Medicine, Glezerman found that pregnancies with a male foetus were more often complicated and carried greater risk of difficult or premature delivery. He said: "Men are known to have a shorter life span, are more susceptible to infections and have less chance of withstanding disease than women." "In short, men are the weaker sex." Glezerman said: "Males are also associated with higher risk in the neonatal period after birth and are more likely to expose themselves to risky behaviour later in life." Boys may take more chances as the result of peer pressure, and testosterone in their bloodstream could also lead to more dangerous behaviour, he claimed. "Men become soldiers, construction workers, and work as firefighters. They take on these risks quite naturally to protect their society, and they're trained to do this without question," he concluded. |
Ha! I knew it. :p

does more at risk = weaker ?
i do think we are weaker in one respect ... when it comes to sex. |

No offense but as his research only based on an Israel's Medical Centre with Israeli samples so the findings may be only appropriate for Israeli men & women:D
|
So if you get sick more often than me or have been in the hospital more you're weaker than I am? I guess it depends on how you're defining weak. In the end, I'm glad we're finding ways to generalize more, we don't do it enough.

And Sean, you say men run everything. I wouldn't exactly brag about the state of affairs this world is in, you know? |

what I am asking is... why don't the women take over and change the paradigm? |

Because men would never allow that to happen. |

Ah I haven't arm wrestled in forever. I would love to take up the challenge, but only with the left hand. As far as men being weaker, I disagree. Stupider, maybe. The only way they are at all weaker, is when it comes to sex. They are so easy and can't resist a good piece of ass. At least none of the ones I've came across. |
watch a couple episodes of the Man Show, then tell me who's the weaker sex.:)
|
Strongly disagree.
|
Well you're strongly wrong.
|
Who cares. Both sexes are equally retarded in their own different ways. Human fucking pestilence....
|
And you get mad at me for wanting annihilate humans. Make up your mind, man!
|
Never said I wanted to annihilate humans. Just sayin' that were are a fucked up destructive lifeform regardless of sex.
|
Well I certainly think we've worn out our welcome on this planet.

Lucia Rijker is a female kickboxer and boxer. Her record is 37-0 in Kick Boxing and 17-0 in boxing. She has never been defeated by another woman in a fighter. She is amazing not only has won every fight but (well the ones i've seen) she literally destroys them...
Her one defeat was when she fought a 'exhibition' match against a man (same weight as her as far as i know) and she was savagely knocked out in the 2nd round and was unconscious for several minutes. The Thaiboxer who beat her was pretty average... That been said I've heard of many woman winning open grappling competitions vs men in BJJ or Submission wrestling. |
