The role of men and women in the workplace and how it's changed the physiology of each gender?
|
Physiological change? Got an example?
|
Seriously, I think US News and World Report just ran an article on the preponderance of long-fingered dikes assuming roles in middle management.
|
Structural and physiological change of the bullfrog semicircular canal due to gentamicin intoxication?

Well, I guess I was considering that women of yesteryear seemed to have significantly more strength and size, while men were significantly smaller. Take for example photographs of women from the late 1800's, early 1900's. The normal body type for non-aristocratic women seemed to be more bulky, whereas the normal body type for most men seems to be smaller, more slightly.

You defintelt fit the category of: "more smaller"
|
It appears as though while women are migrating to a more equitable role in the corporate work environment, they have become physically smaller. Men, by contrast, have become more muscular and physically larger.

Re the smaller women thing: Remember, the late 1800's was before heroin addiction, or at least the appearance of heroin addiction, was considered "chic". And bulimia and other eating disorders in teen girls were pretty much unheard of. |
So, smaller people have a tendency to gain more power?

Well, the correlation is that as women grow competitively in the workplace, they have inherently taken up less physical space. They've gone from being physically strong to being physically diminutive.
In response to this, men have been required to present the strength or the appearance of strength to continue to be viewed as masculine, and therefore more competent than smaller male competitors. They've gone from physically average for their frame size to a good bit above average. |

They've gone from physically average for their frame size to a good bit above average. This phenomenon is so utterly complex that it could never be fairly summarized in just a few sentences. The various social and economic variables affecting physical stature in males and females could very well fill a book. Work habits, amount and use of leisure time, diet, genetics, social conventions, marketing influences, etc. etc. etc. Do the observed changes in physicality occur only in working women, or in those playing a more traditional role as homemaker as well? And why is it that so many top managers are weasely, scrawny twerps who ruthlessly excel in management as a way to compensate for their physical shortcomings? |
It all has to do with Friday donut day. Seriously.

Fat people survive famones better than skinny ass fucks. seriously

all this debate really begs the question:
who cares |
I just thought it was interesting. BTW, I found an educational video on the subject but it's $275. I wonder if the library lends DVD's?

full figured women were considered attractive, goes back much further than the 1800s, lots of junk in the trunk and what have you
For some reason the ribcrackers of today are now the "attractive" ones. There is nothing more attractive than a woman that turns sideways and disappears. I wanna drive through LA, with a potato gun, shooting in-n-out burgers down the gullets of these skinny little bitches. eat something and stop slammin dope! |
