As they say, woman is weaker than man. But as I noticed, a lot of company now a days, hires a lady for the supervisory position. The reason, they are much favorable to woman due to their commitment in their jobs. Aside from the dedication and passion for work. And for some companies, they will hire a man to fill in the position to be a staff of a woman. In this regard, I dont think that woman are weaker than man. It only shows, that, what man can do is also can be done by the woman.

Scientifically, men are proven to be stronger than women, if u stick to the natural way of how hormones make us grow but if we are talking about the way of life sort of thing. Workout can make women stronger then men who do not work out. If you actually a man and a woman who works out and have similar schedules, the man would be stronger than the woman. So i say, men is stonger than women in all fair factors.

Men are usually physically stronger but is it. Men are not stronger then us in any other way. Look at all we women go through in our lives: Pregnancy, giving birth, menstration, and then menopause. I think we are pretty extraordinary for doing all of that. Plus we are the caregivers. A woman will work a full day and then come home and take care of her family. I am not saying no men do that because some med do, but it is built in to most of us woman. We can take care of everything and everyone.

I believe Men being strong Physically for me is no longer the factor. if women are being considered weak because of the body, teacher Her Karate, Kung-fu or any other martial arts method of defense, and i can tell you this, Men's body factor is a doodoo down. women are strong because she can handle task even though she has a period,give birth, menapause and other sickness prone to women.

Physically men are generally stronger. Owing it probably on the size of their muscles, or just the plain anatomical and physiological attributes in them but there are many areas where women can do so much better now. Both gender are strong in many different ways. Actually the essence of striving for a gender fair society is not to prove that women are greater than men, but instead, as equals.

Hello aira, if you're not aware, women has been the driving force in the economy on most democratic nations of the world. most of them are the best in different fields, some are in politics, music, sports and others, most specially in entrepreneurship. Comparing it to the women, maybe you could say they are physically weak (unless they trained themselves) they can tolerate irritating periods, painful child birth, and some migraines too. with that, i don't think a man can take if he is in the women shoes. I think it's better women to be stronger because they are more passionate and compassionate than men.

This all depends. If you are spoeaking of physical strength, men tend to corner the market here,. in matters of intellect, women and men are of equal strength. We may think we are stronger than men but it is usually just our egos talking.

Actually, it depends on what factor we will consider when we compare the strength of men and women. Considering the physiological factors, men have more strength than women because of their physical make-up. In this aspect, the being "weak" of women does not imply a negative meaning. This simply means vulnerability. And women's vulnerability makes men appear stronger because they are needed by women and their masculinity is displayed especially when protecting the woman they love. Surely, both men and women have strength and weakness. I don't think there is a point in trying to compare who is stronger and or weaker because we all are incomparable in our own ways; and men and women are made to complement one another =).

I think the saying goes that a woman has to work twice as hard to get half as far. I believe women should have every opportunity to do what they want to do in life. Some roles that are traditionally considered to be a man’s domain are ones that women can really prove that they excel. Like a successful female bouncer. That said, there has to be consideration for the fact that women are often physically weaker than men. It’s a truth that has to acknowledged, but it also can open the door to people saying women can’t do things, and that’s where the obstacles come from.

The weaker first struck as referring to strength in my mind. After reading the discussion I got to know that you were talking about mind, skills and job positions. I also don't consider women any less than men in their mind or skills. They are just equally cunning and can handle most of the tasks efficiently. And there are many examples of this in the world. The best example(for Indians at least) of this is that the President of my country India is a women(Pratibha Patil).

In the context of physical strength women are weaker than men, it has scientific reason: women have less upper body muscles/strength however lover body muscles is the same ...but physical strength is not everything!! in the context of brain/mental power we all are same..

Women are a part of a man's life,they support him when he needs support help him whenever they can.Most of the famous men these days have a woman behind them.It's also true the other way around.Because of this i think that neither women nor men is stronger. :)
