[Music] ten facts about the female body very few people know about the human body is truly fascinating even though we've come to understand a lot about it there's still so much more to learn this is especially true about the female body it's a mystery wrapped in an enigma if you're ready to find out more about women and their physiology then let's get started but Before we jump in don't forget to subscribe to our channel and hit that little notification bell so that you won't miss any of our new videos number 10 their necks are more
flexible have you ever noticed how women and men turn when they're called pay attention next time and you'll see that men turn their whole bodies while women just turn their heads the reason for this difference lies in the much more elastic muscle structure in the female body however this does mean that ladies should be extra careful while turning their heads according to a study from Loyola University Medical Center women are 1.3 eight times more likely than men to report neck pain due to cervical degenerative disc disease this condition is a common cause for neck pain
stiffness burning or numbness and surrounding tissue if this sounds familiar to you definitely have your doctor check it out immediately number 9 women have sensitive hearing even while sleeping another aspect of being a woman is having way more sensitive hearing and that's thanks to the evolutionary process from a biological point of view a woman's ear is hypersensitive to noises during sleep so that mom can always hear and respond to her crying baby if it's in a different room of course anybody man or woman would be awakened by a baby screaming right next to them this
sensitivity is mostly to high-pitched noises so it's not like most women are woken up by every single noise in the night like a squirrel running up a nearby tree or a leaf falling on the ground besides having superpower hearing at night researchers at Australia's sleep GP clinic have confirmed that women are also more prone to have sleep disorders that are often associated with daytime sleepiness this in turn is linked to chronic fatigue depression and memory problems well you win some you lose some number eight one of their breasts is bigger than the other this size
difference can either be practically invisible or pretty noticeable but either way there's really nothing to worry about nobody has absolutely symmetrical breasts and there are a lot of different reasons for that for one it could be a difference in the volume of breast tissue the size or shape of the breast pocket or even the skins elasticity on each breast whatever the case it's completely natural and normal they're all beautiful no matter what their shape or size don't you think number seven women are more rational than men despite common opinion that women are more emotional and
men are more rational science says otherwise psychologist Stewart Richie and his team of researchers found that the human brain has a much thicker cerebral cortex than the male brain does this is the region of the brain associated with higher scores on a variety of cognitive and general intelligence tests meanwhile men have been found to have higher brain volumes which plays a big role in emotions so take that gender stereotypes number six women are more prone to having cellulite and that isn't a bad thing by modern societal standards of beauty cellulite is perceived as something that
one should be ashamed of and the fact that ninety-eight percent of people with cellulite are ladies versus only two percent who are men just puts even more pressure on women to look a certain way but let's start off by getting a couple of things straight cellulite isn't a medical term and it's not at all a sign of obesity or weight problems instead it's just a sign of a mature female body according to statistics only one forty women doesn't have this kind of accumulation of fat on their upper thighs and buttocks yet we still keep hearing
about the wrong fat and the built-up toxins that our bodies can't cope with in fact fat tissue plays an important role in the production of hormones including estrogens these hormones promote the development and maintenance of female characteristics in the human body so you can imagine how important they are plus the societal view of cellulite as some kind of unsightly problem isn't even fifty years old so should we really stress out about it when the stunning Marilyn Monroe didn't yeah I don't think so either number five they get drunk faster than men you surely notice that
most women have a lower tolerance to alcohol than their male compadres well this is basically due to the fact that the female body has less water in its tissues than the male body according to researchers from the University School of Medicine and Trieste Italy this difference in water levels means that women get drunk faster because their body are less able to digest the alcohol before it reaches the bloodstream less water in the tissues is also connected with a tendency of women to sweat way less than men this can be a good good thing but it's
also the reason why most ladies don't tolerate the heat so well another study at Ireland School of Medicine and medical science found that because of the lower water level and therefore smaller volume of blood women also have 12% lower hemoglobin levels than men pretty interesting stuff huh number four they form stronger attachments to people we already mentioned how studies show that women's brains are built to be more rational but that doesn't mean that their emotional side is lacking women connect with people on a much deeper level than men do and scientifically speaking it's because they
have higher oxytocin levels oxytocin is the so-called love or cuddle hormone and it's released when you bond with someone socially it promotes attachment solidifies relay and chips and eases stress it's also responsible for creating mother-child bonds and even for breastfeeding so if you need some emotional support call a gal pal number three women's bodies keep changing even into their 20s if you think that once puberty is over your body is done going through major changes then think again women's bodies continue to change and grow even into their 20s that's some good news for you if
you've had some crazy irresponsible teen years as far as healthy habits are concerned it's never too late to improve your lifestyle as cliche as it might sound you've got to eat healthy include more bananas and almonds in your diet since they're rich in bone strengthening calcium that's especially useful for the ladies since women are more prone to bone health issues like osteoporosis later in life exercising is also a great way to strengthen your muscles and keep you mobile but it's not only about the body the brain changes to more specifically your prefrontal cortex keeps developing
into your 20s which means that chances are you'll get better at decision-making during this period number two their brains are more intricately hardwired dr. Ragini Verma a professor at University of Pennsylvania together with her team of researchers used special imaging technology to study the neural pathways in the brains of 428 males and 521 females aged 8 to 22 and they came to some interesting conclusions it turns out that the left and right hemispheres and women's brains are more interconnected than those of men this means that women are faster at socially connecting with people and get
used to routine much easier sounds like the scientific explanation of why men are from Mars and women are from Venus our brains just work differently number one blonde hair is more common among Caucasian women than Caucasian men according to a study published in Nature Genetics women of European descent are twice as likely to be natural blonde compared to men while Caucasian men are three times more likely to have black hair than women the cause of these trends is still unknown but the researchers do have some theories they think it's probably due to the fact that
blonde genes present at birth are more persistent in females and usually disappear in males as they grow up in my studies the scientists also found pigment genes to be linked with stress and hormones again these are all just educated guesses as for now experts are calling this phenomenon an intriguing mystery speaking of mysteries we have a little bonus for you the Enigma of female body language whether or not it's scientific fact or guesswork based on reoccurring trends a woman's body language can say a lot about her feelings for example if a woman is interested in
what her conversation partner is saying she tends to stand with her shoulders lowered and her hands clasped together on the contrary arms crossed over the chest show she'd rather be elsewhere than talking to a certain person keeping your hands below chin level invisible is considered attractive and polite in all kinds of situations including social business and romantic ones well our body can definitely reveal more about us than even we know or mean to show so which of these facts surprised you the most tell me in the comments below and don't forget to click subscribe to
