WE COPE BETTER WITH PAIN
ANY woman who’s given birth will be well aware of this fact, but, according to a 2009 study at the University of Florida, females have a higher tolerance for pain. Pain affects both genders differently, not only in terms of how and where we feel it, but how quickly it subsides. Experts agree that women recover faster from pain, seek help more readily and are less likely than men to allow chronic pain to control their lives.
