A woman has always been a mystery for both men
and women themselves. There are so many things
which make us different from men and special in
our own peculiar way. However, after all these
years of studying and observing women there are
thing more or less common for our ‘race’ (or ‘kind’).
Here is the list of scientifically proven (and not
proven) that will help you (or not) understand
women better. Let’s start from physiology and
move to habits.
1. Women have a faster heartbeat (78 beats per
minute )
The rate of heartbeat depends on the size of body in
general. As women’s bodies are smaller on average
than men’s, their hearts beat faster.
2. Women blink twice more often than men
This is generally explained by the higher levels of
hormone Estrogen in women’s bodies.
3. Women are better smellers…
It’s not because the better sense of smell. Women
tend to differentiate smells better than men and
detect specific smells correctly.
4. And better listeners!
The trick is women listen with both sides of brain
while men use only left side of brain for listening.
5. …but lousy drinkers
Women can drink the same amount of alcohol but
will have a higher alcohol level in blood than men
do. Thus, we have lower alcohol tolerance, we are
prone to become alcohol addicts sooner than men
and suffer more from hangovers. In other words,
drinking is not women’s cup of tea.
6. Women’s life expectancy is higher than it is for
men worldwide.
This may be explained by different factors – the
rate of hormons (testosterone and estrogen) in
organism, women’s slower metabolism, lower
death rate in childhood, better ability to adjust to the
environment. However, the longer life expectancy
doesn’t mean women are healthier than men. It just
means we can leave through the conditions that
men die from.
7. Women speak about 20,000 words a day while
for average man this number is 13,000 times less.
Yes. Women are that chatty. On the other hand, if
they have so much topics to discuss – good for
them!
8. Women cry about 30-64 times a year. Men cry
on average 6 to 17 times a year.
Hormones again are the reason. 60 percent more
prolactin in women’s bodies – and we are crying
rivers while men remain calm and dry.
9. Fun fact: an average woman eats about 2-3 kilos
of lipstik (per lifetime).
Question: Does it have to be considered when
making a diet plan?
10. The first computer programmer was a woman
Ada Lovelace (1815 -1852 )
Now, who said we are not good with math?
11. Both cases of highest IQs recorded (ever)
belong to women.
Yup, we are that brainy. No more women’s logic
related jokes, please.
12. Why do women lack free time? That’s the
answer!
According to researches, women spend on
average120 hours a year looking in the mirrors,
over 4 years of their lives menstruating, and
approximately one year of their lives deciding what
to wear. That’s a lot of busy time, indeed!
13. When woman dresses, she usually puts on a
blouse first. Pants come second. For men it is vice
versa.
Science can’t explain this fact. That’s just how
things work.
14. Women prefer chocolate over sex!
Seventy percent of women would have a bar of
chocolate instead of having sex. Well, it’s not a
secret that men need more sex than women. While
men enjoy physical side, women enjoy the emotions
they get during intimacy. So, does it mean chocolate
gives us more emotional pleasure! That is
something for men to think about…
15. Only 30% of women can orgasm from
intercourse. And the same amount of women have
trouble reaching orgasm.
The reasons vary from physiological peculiarities,
lack sex education, inexprienced partner or wrong
positions. The habit of faking orgasm instead of
talking with a partner and solving the problem may
also be the reason why women prefer chocolate.
16. There is always at least one thing that woman
doesn’t like about her body. Usually that’s either
weight, or breast size.
Even super models who seem perfect to anyone try
to hide some imperfections they notice about their
body. Seriously, women are so self-critical.
17. High heels create the effect of roundish butt (it
sticks out 25 percent more)
However, we all know stilettos are not practical,
they seem to have strong advantages.
And now, a couple of facts about women which are
not scientifically proven but were said by the wise
men and so should be taken for granted.
18. ‘A woman’s mind is cleaner than a man’s: She
changes it more often.’ – Oliver Herford
19. ‘Every woman is wrong until she cries, and then
she is right – instantly.’ – Sam Slick
20. ‘Women are made to be loved, not understood.’
– Oscar Wilde
