The poor grammar and arrogance of this post doesn't help your case...And besides, that's a stereotype. Want to hear another stereotype? Women are overly emotional when it comes to comparing men to women.

It is an undisputed biological fact that the average male is physically stronger than the average female. Intelligence is not linked to gender in any way, shape, or form. Some say that women are more patient than men, but that is not intelligence, nor has it even been proven.

That being said, there is no reason why a woman can't succeed in a survival situation. Strength is only a small portion of survival.

yes, it is a huge part in a survival situation, what would bear do if he couldnt climb up a cavern? go around about 10 miles of a river trying to find a way. I believe women can do SOME of the stuff bear does but really, if you think about it, strength is a huge part in survival backlit

Agreed.

By the way women are only smarter during adolescence, then men make a comeback and become smarter.

I know women that would have no problem doing any of those things.


P.S.
manvswildchick are you sure you don't want to switch sides and change your name to survivorchick. seems like the only ones that think Women are as strong as men are the Bear critics.

I cant speak for every woman but I know one who could, can and will if need be. Yes men are physically stronger. But that doesnt make women weak. My wife is a fitness instructor. She can run 20 miles without stopping in 98 degree heat. She teaches on average of 14 hour long classes each week. She also personal trains for about another 20-25 hours a week. You do the math. Chics in shape. She averages well over 100 push ups a day. And not the ones most women do.(no offense) She does full push ups, nose to the ground, all the way back up. She has a black belt in Aikido, a Masters degree from a well know, extremly competetive school, is a classical pianist, a gourmet chef and a mother of 3. She is 5'8" tall and weighs 135 lbs. If she cant knock you out she will wear you out. I wouldnt get in a ring with her on a dare. I am a former Army Ranger, have a black belt in 4 forms of martial arts, star wrestler in high school, competetive boxer and a graduate of SERE school. I have eaten ALL of the things Bear has. I have had to survive. If I had to pick one person to be with me, it would be my wife. I know she can go the distance, wont give up, is physically, mentally and emotional indestructable and a whole lot nicer to look at than any man in the world.
