The male hormone testosterone is linked to elevations of LDL, the bad cholesterol, as well as declines in HDL, the good cholesterol. Men have fewer infection-fighting T-cells and are thought to have weaker immune systems than women. Men have a higher death rate from pneumonia and influenza than women. By the age of 36, women outnumber men. Men ages 55-74 are twice as likely as women to die of heart disease. In the United States, men are twice as likely to die from parasite-related diseases (in part, some speculate, because their greater average size may offer parasites a bigger target). Stroke, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and accidents -- all among the top causes of death -- kill men at a higher rate than women. American men typically die almost six years before women do. By the age of 100, women outnumber men eight to one.”

Here are some biological facts that are undeniable when one looks at the research. Women have better senses (smell, touch, taste, and sight). Women tolerate pain the best. Pound for pound, women are in fact stronger thus men are physically stronger only because of their overall size advantage. Women have greater flexibility and endurance. Women, as a rule, eat healthier. Women are biological superior (and complex), less susceptible to certain diseases and they live longer.

So much for the weaker sex. But that is biological, what about intellectual? Are women more intelligent? Studies show that the human male brain is, on average, approximately ten percent larger than the female brain. However, certain brain areas in women contain more nerve cells. Women have a larger corpus collusum, the group of nerve fibers that connects left and right hemispheres in the brain. The part of the brain that allows us to think is known as “gray matter”. Researchers wanted to know if women have as much gray matter as men. It was proven that women have 55.4 percent gray matter, vs. 50.8 in men. Men listen with only one side of their brains, while women use both, according to information on brain imaging presented in November 2002, at the 86th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

Here are some facts about a woman’s intellect. Studies show women do better in memory tests. Women have better language and communication skills. As we will see, women have more success in small businesses and women are making better managers, directors and CEO's. Women use more areas of their brain. Girls mature faster than boys, from potty training to emotional development. As we will also discover, women have taken over higher education as many more women are graduating and getting degrees than men.
