Who's Winning The Battle Of The Sexes?

Men aren't as careful as women are on Facebook

. Bitdefender, an anti-virus software company, surveyed 1,649 men and women in the U.S. and U.K. According to the findings, 35.8% of women accepted Facebook friend requests compared to 44.6% of men. Men were even likelier to accept if the profile was associated with the picture of an attractive woman. Twenty-five percent of men let their profiles be searched by strangers compared to 16% of women. Twenty-six percent of men were willing to share their location compared to 21.8% of women. It seems men online have more difficulty "drawing the line".

Women have to be more careful than men about sugary drinks, such as soda and flavored water. That is because women need fewer calories to develop negative impacts. Research presented to the American Heart Association followed more than 4,000 men and women ages 45-84 for 5 years. During that time participants' sugar-sweetened beverage intake, weight, waist circumference, cholesterol and diabetes markers were monitored. Women who drank 2 or more sugary drinks daily were 4 times more likely to develop high cholesterol and diabetes compared to women who drank 1 or less. Obviously, information about sugary drinks isn't always "sweet talk".

Women can get information about men from seeing how well men dance. In a study published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences, 48 men ages 18-42 filled out personality questionnaires before being asked to dance to a drumbeat. The dance moves were then transferred onto featureless, computerized avatars so the 53 women ages 17-57 wouldn't be influenced by the men's looks. After watching 15-second clips the women judged the men's dancing on a scale of 1 to 7. According to the scores, men with conscientious/agreeable personalities had better dance moves - giving new meaning to "putting the move on someone".

Five million men and women have fibromyalgia and 90% of them are women. Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by body-wide pain and tenderness in muscles and joints. A study published in the journal Arthritis & Rheumatism looked at the sleep habits of 12,350 healthy women. After 10 years 2.6% developed fibromyalgia. However, women with sleep problems had higher risks - 3 times higher for women ages 20-44 and 5 times higher for women over 45. Because sleep problems are also associated with increased risk of heart disease and other chronic ailments, we need to "wake up to" the importance of sleep.
