Woman's Endurance Outpaces Man in New Study Message
A Cambridge discussion at the American Physical Education Association featured Prof. John M. Tyer of Amherst College asserting women are biologically stronger and longer living than men. Dr. Glassson of New York supported the view, noting female babies survive at higher rates, girls remain healthier through childhood, and modern training has raised women's physical endurance. The speaker blamed male dominance and restrictive fashion for hindering women's strength, while praising hygiene advances and state attention to female physical development. The speaker predicts the era of the delicate female is passing as girls today are taller stronger and healthier than their mothers.
