Women are the superior sex by
virtually every test except that of
brute strength.
Anytime you think women are
the weaker sex, just consider the
following as published In the
March issue of Cosmopolitan magazine:
Professor S. J. Holmes, a wologist
at the University of Southern-
California says flatly:
"The greater physical toughness
of the female Is characterlatic of
the human species throughout
life."
A prolonged study of 89,190 mentally
Ill patients admitted to Massachusetts
mental hospitals show
that psychotic men out-numbered
the women six to five.
Males Called Unstable Sees
"Males, rather than females, are
the unstable sex," Dr. Nell Dayton,
phychiatrist who made the study,
concludes.
Statistics show that nearly five
times more males than females
die of ulcers; more males, by a
wide margin, are killed by heart
disease, tuberculosis, appendicitis.
pneumonia, and be-beri.
"Of eighteen causes of death listed
by the United States Bureau of
the Census, males were well in the
lead in all but four—cancer. diabetes,
and related disease., childbirth
and senility," the article state.
Men Can't Face Troubles
Of more than 200.000 persons
tracked down by Skip Tracers
company, only 2,000 were women,
according to Daniel M. Eisenberg,
head of the company, who feels
that these figures show men are
far less able to face problems and
responsibilities than women.
Records show that male drug
addicts outnumber women addicts
our to one; male alcoholics outnumber
female alcoholics seven to
ne, and men lead women in 001-
Ides by three to ono
Even driving automobiles, despite
all the jokes about women
drivers, women in one state where
ests were made had a record onelard
better than men drivers.
Only In the field of the arts and
clences have men shown up better
ham women, and many authorities
elleve this Is due more to lack of
pportunity than a lack of Inbarnt
creative ability In women.
