[QUOTE="Useless Pretty Boy, post: 120968, member: 20433"] That's a good point. Women can hold fat in a far healthier manner than men can. Men's fat goes around the internal organs ('apple shaped'), which is hugely dangerous, while I believe I'm right in saying that most women are 'pear shaped', meaning they put fat on the outside of their musculature. Surely that extra allowance for fat would easily make up for the fact that men will tend to carry more muscle? [/QUOTE]
