Why did God make Females smaller than Males?

Question

Why did God make Females smaller than Males?

Answer 1

hi,

i think that created men bigger , stronger, more muscular than women to enable them to perform tasks that require great energy such as hunting, building,,,etc. (things that enabled us to build a civilization in the early days).

Answer 2

So they fit better in the kitchen

Answer 3

Would you rather be swept up by a tiny man? or a big man? cus i'd go for the bigger hunk 4 sure. ;)

Answer 4

god didn't make females; males made god.

Answer 5

Small is beautiful!

Answer 6

So men don't feel inferior to our overall greatness.

Answer 7

My sister is taller than her husband.  Some women are just taller.  The Bible never stated who is taller.  I am smaller than my husband but we never thought about it.  I have seen women that are bigger than some guys and so what?

Answer 8

The height proportions enable sexual relations to be more pleasurable, it's also symbolic for the male being the head of the household.

Answer 9

Lots of small males out there

Answer 10

It's the hormone testosterone.

BTW girls avg height has been rising steadily in the last century and may some make the sexes approximately of equal height.

Answer 11

i don't know but got to say that god sure did a wonderful job.

Answer 12

why don't you ask God?

Answer 13

God didn't. Natural selection and biochemistry did.

Answer 14

Well if God made me short, then I guess high heels are the work of the devil hehe :-)

Answer 15

Great question!... no idea really...

...So Tracey, why didn't you put an answer from a natural selection point of view then? No need to answer to berate someone's beliefs/choice of words. Least whatever put something up, though its... errr... yea.

I've seen men and women become taller, but women on average are certainly not getting to be taller than men.

Best answer seems to come from biology, I think. Androgen levels might have something to do with height, though i do not profess to know biology. Does help with fighting off threats maybe, for the family. If you say women should be able to do the same, well, you can't put too much strain on her if she's pregnant, so defending the crib falls on the man's shoulders...

Answer 16

He didn't. But i think evolution may have had something to do with it.

Answer 17

oh seriously....

women are becoming taller than men as there are less nutritional discrepancies.

furthermore if God did it, why don't you also inquire why he made asians smaller, or norwegians have blond hair...

Answer 18

it makes them cuter ...

can you imagine guys falling for huge chicks ??

Answer 19

Not in all animals. Most female birds-of-prey are larger than the males and female hyenas are larger, too. The greatest size disparity is the angler fish, which lives in deep ocean waters. The female is many times larger than the male. The male has to find a female, attach himself to her body, and then become absorbed by it so that he becomes little more than a lump on her skin.

Answer 20

So men have an esier time getting them preggers.

Answer 21

Thin you're gonna have to ask God to get the true answer.

Answer 22

so tat men can enter them easily!!!

Answer 23

not this female.

i may be shorter than most guys..( im 5ft7) but my bone structure is very large ( 7 inch around wrist)...and yes i am over weight.

the women in my family are between 5ft4...and 5ft7 and a half...so far...and we all have large builds with medium to large bone structures.

Answer 24

God didnt make Females smaller than males. It depends on your parent's sizes, and to your activities what you do.

Answer 25

Interesting question. I would assume its something to do with men having to hunt and they were required to be stronger while the women usually did the more domestic jobs that didn't require as much strength like cooking and preparing food. Although this isn't the same in all ancient societies, sometimes women had an active role in hunting etc. I guess we're smaller because we don't need to be as big but I don't know the reason why.

Other species often have the female bigger than the male, there must be a reason for the size difference but its something I've never thought to investigate.

& Theres always exceptions to rule of course.
