Why women are so fragile genetically?

Question

Before the birth they have good health but after they lose hair and teeth, and have constant health problems, and are never the same. It seems as if they were made by nature to last one birth, and then it does not matter if they survive or not. Should not they have been made more resilient as survival of species? It would not do to produce numerous female species to use only once evolutionarily, so why are they like this?

Answer 1

they're weak

Answer 2

You obviously do not know much about genetics...

Men are far weaker the women.

Women have two X chromosomes. Men have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. This Y chromosome is pretty much useless. And because of this, men have many more genetic disorders then women.

Take color deficiency (or, as I'm sure you call it - color blindness) for example, most people who have color deficiency are men. Why is that, you say? Because in order for a women to get, both of her parents have to carry the gene. For a male to get it, only one parent has to carry the gene. It would just lay dominant in female if only one of her parents had the gene (like it lays dominant in myself). However, NO gene can lay dominant in a male.

You are the weaker sex, genetically speaking, as you said, "Why women are so fragile genetically?"

Answer 3

You have a misconception of what a species is. A species cannot be female; it must contain both male and female members, or else reproduce asexually.

Additionally, many women give birth to several children with no ill effects. They are not as fragile as you think.

Answer 4

17,
Your premise is faulty. A woman can seem relatively healthy before pregnancy and not be healthy at all. If one pregnancy depletes a woman it is because she was
nutritional not genetically deficient
before the pregnancy began. If a woman has poor nutrition before and during pregnancy her body is designed to make up the difference by giving everything to the fetus.

A well nourished health woman can have 12 to 15 children with no ill effects to her body. ( I have a grandmother and great-grandmother that had over 10 children and lived into their 90s)

I have a hunch that you have seen or know of woman who had very poor diets before during and after pregnancy. You are not looking at the long term results of evolution. You are looking at short ...short term results of poor diet caused my a multitude of processes going on in our society:

Worship of the anorexic "Barbie" figure by teen age girls.
Processed non-foods
Fat saturated fast foods
Lack of exercise

to name only a few.

Answer 5

You have things backwards. Look up some life expectancy tables and you will see that women live about 6-7 years longer than men on average.

Men are muscularly stronger but that's the only way.

Answer 6

I would assume it is because of the food we are eating now. It is mostly genetically altered and when you think about it, it's gross. If the mother does not have enough of vitamins and supplements in her diet ( which most women don't because they are on diets of some sort or another), the baby takes what it needs from her system. Thus depleting the mothers resources.

Answer 7

you
are about to be embarassed
its your chromosome.... not ours, which is fragile
the Y chromosome is a tiny little runt compared to the X chromosome (google some pictures of it and you will see) and it is getting shorter with every single generation

It codes for very few genes, which is why Y linked disorders are generally much less serious than other chromosomal disorders

You (men) are also weaker genetically, being much more prone to X linked genetic disorders than we are

So like I said
If anyone is genetically fragile
its men, not women

Please open a book on genetics before making such foolish and mysoginistic claims
