    1. We evolve hotter.

    A recent study revealed that women are getting better looking through evolution; meanwhile, men are staying the same. After following more than 2,000 people through four decades of life, the study showed that attractive women had 16 percent more children than average-looking chicks and that beautiful people are 36 percent more likely to have a daughter as their firstborn. All those gorgeous daughters mean more beautiful women than in past generations.

    2. We survive car accidents more often.

    This is sad but true: Men are 77 percent more likely to die in a car accident than women, according to a study done by Carnegie Mellon University. Our boyfriends should be thanking us when we nag them to "Wear your seatbelt!"

    3. We're better at seeking comfort.

    A Mind survey of 2,000 people revealed that women are far more likely than men to talk through their problems. Fifty-three percent of women talk to their friends about what's stressing them out, as opposed to 29 percent of men.

    4. We're more recession-proof.

    According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 80 percent of those who have lost their jobs since December 2007 have been men. Ouch. This could be because male-dominated fields have been hit the hardest, like manufacturing and finance. That really sucks…but hey, maybe it's time more men became nurses and educators.

    5. We graduate college more often.

    We already know that female enrollment is higher than male, but the Department of Education's statistics reveal that men are also less likely than women to graduate and get their bachelor's degrees. Men are also more likely to take longer than five years to complete their degree.

    6. We eat healthier.

    A survey of more than 14,000 people, conducted by the University of Minnesota, showed that women choose far healthier foods than men. While men are more likely to chow down on frozen pizza and red meat, women are piling fruits and veggies onto their plates. It all sounds pretty obvious, but we get so much grief for our chocolate addictions that we just had to point this one out!

    7. We have stronger immune systems.

    No wonder men act like such babies when they have a sniffle - women really do have stronger immune systems than men! If there are little battles going on in our bodies, women have a secret weapon: estrogen. A study done by McGill University indicated that estrogen gives women an edge when it comes to fighting off infections. That's because estrogen confronts a certain enzyme that often hinders the body's first line of defense against bacteria and viruses.

    8. We live longer.

    Among the world's population of those who are over 100 years old, 85 percent are women, according to the New England Centenarian Study. In general, women continue to live five to 10 years longer than men as well.

    9. We're better managers, especially in this economy.

    This one is a little controversial, but a slew of experts are confident that women make greater bosses because they are better listeners, mentors, problem solvers, and multitaskers than their male counterparts. In a recent Daily News article, management expert Jay Forte said, "It's a very service-oriented economy [right now], so you need employees to be motivated. Women are better connectors than men and more astute about knowing how to activate passion in their employees."

    10. We invest better.

    A study of 100,000 portfolios showed that women's investment returns outperform men's, 18 percent to 11 percent. This could be because women are typically more cautious with their investment decisions and think longer term.

    1、我們進(jìn)化得更正點(diǎn)了。

    最近的一個(gè)研究顯示,女人進(jìn)化后變得更好看了;與此同時(shí),男人卻停留不變。經(jīng)過(guò)研究四十年來(lái)超過(guò)2000個(gè)人的生活表明,有魅力的女人比普通長(zhǎng)相的少婦多了16%的小孩,并且美麗的女人比普通女人多36%的可能第一胎生女孩。所有這些漂亮的女孩就暗示了,與以前相比,我們會(huì)有更多美麗的女人。

    2、我們更可能在車(chē)禍中幸存下來(lái)。

    這說(shuō)起來(lái)很令人難過(guò),但卻是事實(shí):根據(jù)卡內(nèi)基梅隆大學(xué)所做的一個(gè)研究:在車(chē)禍中的死亡率,男人比女人多了77%的可能。當(dāng)我們不停提醒我們的男朋友"綁好你的安全帶!"時(shí),他們應(yīng)該感謝我們。

    3、我們更擅長(zhǎng)于尋求安慰。

    一個(gè)有2000人參加的心理測(cè)試表明,女人比男人更傾向于向別人傾訴她們的問(wèn)題。53%的女人會(huì)跟她們的朋友談?wù)撍齻兯龅降膲毫,至于男人只?9%.

    4、我們更能預(yù)防經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退。

    根據(jù)勞工統(tǒng)計(jì)局的數(shù)據(jù),那些從2007年12月就一直失業(yè)的有80%是男人。哎呦!這可能是因?yàn)槟腥苏贾鲗?dǎo)的領(lǐng)域遭受了最大的打擊,比如大生產(chǎn)化和金融領(lǐng)域。這實(shí)在是令人不爽……但是,這也可能是一個(gè)契機(jī),是更多男人會(huì)成為護(hù)士和教育工作者的時(shí)機(jī)。

    5、我們有更多的大學(xué)畢業(yè)。

    我們已經(jīng)知道女性入學(xué)率比男性更高,但是教育部的統(tǒng)計(jì)卻揭示了男性跟女性相比,男性更少拿到學(xué)士學(xué)位。還有,男性還更可能要花比五年更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間來(lái)完成他們的學(xué)業(yè)。

    6、我們吃得更健康。

    由美國(guó)明尼蘇達(dá)大學(xué)組織14000人參與的一個(gè)調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示,女人比男人選擇的食物要健康得多。男人更喜歡吃冰凍意大利薄餅和生肉,而女人則選擇吃水果和蔬菜。所有這些就很明顯了,但是我們?yōu)槲覀儗?duì)巧克力的上癮感到悲哀,因此我們必須戒除這一點(diǎn)。

    7、我們有更強(qiáng)的免疫系統(tǒng)。

    難怪男人鼻塞時(shí),他們的行為就像小孩一樣--女人真的比男人有著更強(qiáng)的免疫系統(tǒng)!如果我們的身體內(nèi)存在小戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng),女人有秘密武器:雌激素。麥基爾大學(xué)所做的一個(gè)研究結(jié)果表明,當(dāng)提到預(yù)防傳染時(shí),雌激素就給女人提供了一個(gè)優(yōu)勢(shì)。那是因?yàn)榇萍に貢?huì)對(duì)抗一種特定的酶,這是一種會(huì)妨礙身體防御細(xì)菌病毒的第一道防線(xiàn)的酶。

    8、我們活得更久。

    根據(jù)新英格蘭百歲老人的一個(gè)研究,在世界人口中超過(guò)100歲的人,有85%是女人。并且,總的說(shuō)來(lái),女人會(huì)比男人延續(xù)活10年之久。

    9、我們是更好的管理者,尤其在這個(gè)經(jīng)濟(jì)體系中。

    這一點(diǎn)有些爭(zhēng)議,但是很多專(zhuān)家都對(duì)女性成為更好的老板很有信心,因?yàn)楹退齻兿鄬?duì)應(yīng)地位的男性對(duì)比,她們是更好的傾聽(tīng)者,顧問(wèn),問(wèn)題解決者和多才能者。在最近日?qǐng)?bào)的一篇文章中,管理專(zhuān)家杰伊·福特談到,"(現(xiàn)在)是一個(gè)服務(wù)型經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì),所以你需要激發(fā)那些工人有積極性。女性是比男性要好的中間聯(lián)系人,也更清楚地知道應(yīng)該怎樣激發(fā)她們工人的激情。"

    10、我們能更好地投資。

    對(duì)10萬(wàn)個(gè)投資組合的調(diào)查表明,女性的投資回報(bào)超過(guò)了男性的,大約是18%比11%.這可能是因?yàn)榕愿?jǐn)慎地對(duì)待她們的投資決定,考慮更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間。
