Physical Strength male/female in the animal kingdom...

[Chunk Norris ☯]

Biological human males have roughly a 40% increased upper body strength compared to biological human females. But are there major difference in strength in the animal kingdom? Are male horses stronger? Are male monkeys stronger?

Depends on the type of animal, OP. But the general rule of thumb from my observations would be that in warm-blooded animals, the males tend to be bigger than the females, but in cold-blooded animals, the males are similar or smaller in size than the females. There are freakish exemptions to this rule, but that's the gist of my rule of thumb.

Do you know if their muscle are stronger though? Like on a human if you took a male and female who had exactly the same muscle mass the male would be stronger because our muscles are setup that way.

Like I already said, it depends. Also, size doesn't usually mean it's stronger, but it can measure the probable strength of an animal.

Males may be physically stronger but females are wiser.

Well, I've always understood that women inherently have increased lower body strength comparatively to men.

And that does seem to at least somewhat be the case, as my mom is the one who always ploughs the fields with nothing but brute strength.

But then again, my fingers are vastly stronger than hers from years of competitive gaming. Seriously though, the strength of my fingers cannot be matched by any mortal being.

There is more of a physical upper body strength difference but still there is an average strength difference overall, like there are only male basketball players who can slam dunk, but maybe that's also because of reach difference too, and also upper body power maybe also helps with jumping.

This is fake news. She walked in the door and didn't disappear into the bathroom for half an hour.

Why does he runs like a DS2 speedrunner ? lol.

The males are almost always bigger and stronger, but there are a few that are smaller and even get eaten by the female after mating

Some lioness fights in multitudes for their lion, apparently.

This makes me think that they are not necessarily stronger than the lion but rather said in cahoots with it, in that sense that they exert themselves for its well being and seed.

So yeah definitely, females are strong and often more so than we give them credit or sort of in a subjective way 'objectively' view them.

I think mental strength and endurance in the human species is admirable in whichever, well...
in almost whichever form it comes.

Just as harmful of a stereotype as OP's failure to [initially] accurately convey differences of muscle-type as the key-point of discussion / reasoning, leading to a (potentially unintentional) misrepresentation of superiority & inferiority.

There is nothing in a double X chromosome that imparts divine, or experienced, or even reliable, or impartial, - knowledge - or good judgement unto a person by default, which an XY chromosome would supposedly lack; it simply isn't the case.

Personally, I'm more inclined to believe in the concept of "hongaku".

Sometimes people just need a little extra help finding their own way.

It's not my fault people read "physical strength" and "40%" upper body strength" as males are bigger then females.

Although you're wrong. In the studies that have been conducted while males and females tend to have about the same level of intelligence, female intelligence tends to be more emotional intelligent whereas male intelligence tends to gravitate towards more industrial side.

There's always the exception to the rule but it certainly explains things like males gravitating towards Stem fields whereas females gravitate towards nurturing roles.

No fighting here, we're supposed to be talking about monkeys and animals and things that have nothing to do with humans. Although dolphines could totally kick sharks butts, anyone want to fight about it?

That doesn't make me wrong, on that point. Try re-reading Irene's post.

I'm not saying that people don't have differences, I'm just refuting the claim that one sex is inherently "wiser" than the other.

If we don't have to fight like animals, we can release our happiness juice all days by.
