Females are more flexible
If you watch Dancing with the Stars, you might have suspected the females are more bendy than males. But is this a fact, or is it just the way things are because of lifestyle of exercise habits?Turns out it's fact, according to this article from The Daily Mail: Women are more flexible, particularly in their back. It's an evolutionary trait, carved out by the need for females to be mobile even when they're extremely pregnant.
But I suspect there's more to it than that--it often seems like flexibility is more important to women than men. For example, what percentage of participants in your regular yoga class are men? In the classes I go to, it hovers somewhere between 1 and 25%. That's not to say that there's anything wrong with men in yoga class--just sayin', is all.
