Previous studies have shown that women are better suited physiologically to endurance activities and sports, which would provide an advantage as primitive hunters.


duh. they're suited to anything that's slow because they're slow and weak and can't do anything else. lol. stupid bitch. i guess because women aren't very athletic they must be better than men at something else. LOL.

who believes this sort of thing? lulz, "i'm slow and weak so ima say i jog better than men even though i don't". frickin elite slowness. "i was just proving to my boyfriend that he's not as slow as me."

this is the derp, derp type of scientific method. "the doctrine of what's not because we can't prove that it is."

figures it's coming from an anthropologist who thinks they're a scientist.

ima start calling her "the south bend sloth".

i think the men marathon record is about 15+ minutes faster than the women's. the disparity get's becomes relatively greater the shorter the distance.

These types of researchers will go into a project/topic with a conclusion (not an hypothesis based on data) already in mind and work backwards from there. A conclusion they reached with personal biases. They’ll find things that support their views or twist it to fit their already decided conclusion.

That's not how it’s supposed to work but it’s a huge problem in academia particularly in certain fields like this in which they are basically interpreting and extrapolating due to lack of hard evidence

No one with a developed human brain buys any of this nonsense. These scientists need to be put on blast for this stupidity.

the hoover institute labeled it "the doctrine of what's not" about 8 years ago.

The female hormone, she says, is “really the unsung hero” as it better modulates how quickly a person burns their energy reserves and delays fatigue. Adiponectin protects the muscles from wasting away and this would have been crucial in long, drawn out hunts. The wider hips of a woman also are an advantage, a physiological study published in American Anthropologist found. Likely an adaptation to aid in childbirth, they also allow women to rotate more when walking or running, which elongates the stride, making movement more efficient.


This would be super easy to prove: just look at long distance running records of men vs women. Obviously women are going to have faster records because of all of those biological advantages, right?

A classic example of junk, woke science. An industry delivering the results its grantors is paying for.

So, she’s suggesting women were better hunters back then, but it’s something that we can basically prove out now. Are women now better hunters than men? shite, give them the same weapons we think these prehistoric people had and see how it goes.

Also, it’s not an “idea” that women are physically inferior, it’s biology and scientific fact.

Hahaha that’s ‘her’? That creature can trade in her wide hips for some man legs, ain’t no babies coming out of that thing
