If you're thinking women have less heart disease because they have less stress in their lives, you would be wrong. "The hormones of premenopausal women seem to be protective against heart disease," says fertility expert Zaher Merhi, MD, OBGYN. This logic tracks when you consider that "women have fewer heart attacks than men prior to menopause, but by age 65, they are equals," according to Gersh.

Not all bodies are the same, but fat stores are most commonly found on women around the hips, abdomen, and buttocks. Langdon says this is "to keep the fat stores (food) near the growing uterus and fetus during pregnancy." Women's bodies start preparing for childbearing well before they even consider conceiving.

Discharge—sometimes seen in women's underwear—is part of the vagina's self-cleaning process. "That's why only the external v***a and l***a requiring cleaning," says Langdon. The mucus produced in the cervix, which is at the top of the womb, is the body's way of cleaning what women cannot otherwise reach.

Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, we've seen the virus infecting men at a higher rate than women. While this could be a result of a few factors, women have been proven to fight off infections better than men at every age.

The longstanding belief that women generally get drunk more readily than men has some scientific backing to it. "Women have less of an enzyme that breaks down alcohol before it can get into the bloodstream, which is why women get inebriated on less amount of alcohol," says Langdon. So, the level to which you get intoxicated is not fully dependent on weight and muscle mass, as is commonly believed.

Women's more sizable hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (PFC) are responsible for some of the differences between how men and women think.

"The PFC controls social behavior, cause and effect thinking, and judgment," says Kimberly Langdon, OBGYN and medical advisor at Medzino Health. "[It] develops at a younger age in girls, and this is why they take fewer risks than boys of the same age." The PFC is also responsible for why women have a more acute capacity for details.

For better or worse, women have a stronger sense of smell than men. A study published in PLOS ONE found that "women's brains have up to 50 percent more olfactory neurons." And while scientists believe this is likely a contributing factor to women's superior sense of smell, they think there is more to it than that. According to Medical News Today, some experts believe "a superior sense of smell helps mother and child to bond after birth" and "influences females' selection of potential mates."

If you've ever felt like women and men see the world differently, you're not totally wrong. A study led by psychology professor Israel Abramov found that "women were more adept at distinguishing between subtle gradations than were men," according to Smithsonian Magazine. This disparity was most apparent in the middle of the color spectrum—Abramov found that women were better able to distinguish tiny differences in color hues that were yellow or green.
