Why are men so much physically stronger than women?

Answer 1

because of their chemical makeup, their bones are thicker, they have tigthter muscle mass, and they have the physical build for strength.

Answer 2

"The physical differences are rather obvious and most of these can be seen and easily measured. Weight, shape, size and anatomy are not political opinions but rather tangible and easily measured. The physical differences between men and women provide functional advantages and have survival value. Men usually have greater upper body strength, build muscle easily, have thicker skin, bruise less easily and have a lower threshold of awareness of injuries to their extremities. Men are essentially built for physical confrontation and the use of force. Their joints are well suited for throwing objects. A man’s skull is almost always thicker and stronger than a women’s. The stereotype that men are more "thick-headed" than women is not far fetched. A man’s "thick headedness", and other anatomical differences have been associated with a uniquely male attraction to high speed activities and reckless behavior that usually involve collisions with other males or automobiles. Men invented the game "chicken", not women. Men, and a number of other male species of animal seem to charge and crash into each other a great deal in their spare time.

Women on the other hand have four times as many brain cells (neurons) connecting the right and left side of their brain. This latter finding provides physical evidence that supports the observation that men rely easily and more heavily on their left brain to solve one problem one step at a time. Women have more efficient access to both sides of their brain and therefore greater use of their right brain. Women can focus on more than one problem at one time and frequently prefer to solve problems through multiple activities at a time. Nearly every parent has observed how young girls find the conversations of young boys "boring". Young boys express confusion and would rather play sports than participate actively in a conversation between 5 girls who are discussing as many as three subjects at once! "

Answer 3

Because they have more testerone in their systems so this helps them build up more muscle. Women actually have an extra thin layer of fat under skin to protect babies we might be carrying, this is why our skin is softer.

Originally nature had men protect and do the strong stuff. I like it that men are physically stronger than women, this is one of the nice things about men.

Answer 4

Because men are trained to do all the hard works I guess. And women tends to leave all the hard works to men... :) so that men think their stronger...

Answer 5

Men tend to have more upper body strength, while women have more lower body strength & more endurance than men do.

The answer to your question depends on which type of strength you are speaking of.

Answer 6

because women are supposed to lay around a den all day and care for baby "me's" all day while the big strong man goes out and kills stuff to eat and protects the den. God has to make women so weak so guys could slap them around when they wanted to go hunt. ;)

Answer 7

in ancient times men were the hunters and needed more strength to go into the landscape provide the meat while the ladies took care of the more domestic chores and reared the children.

Answer 8

Because its a mans world!
