Both genders have the same number of ribs. In mythology, there is a difference in number because they are created from men.Their ribs where taken from the ribs of men & that is why they are called women (created from man).

They don't. This is a myth that arises from the story of creation in Genesis.

Answer:

As men and women have an equal number of ribs and an equal number of ribs on each side it is logical to assume that no male rib is missing.

So what is missing?

The term rib is not an accurate translation of the original Hebrew word. Many scholars now think the bone referred to was the baculum (penile bone) as this bone is missing in humans but present in most other mammals even chimpanzees. The "rib" story was invented to explain this apparent anatomical anomaly.

Why do some men have two penises?

in the last few decades, since early manhood, men have had the idea that they must have a bigger penis to fully satisfy a woman. For most men, satisfying a woman is a major priority to them so most take their penis size quite seriously. Penis size has also worked it way into pop culture (songs, jokes, marketing campaigns that mention size) and men are often teased not only by women, but by other men that their penis is small, therefore making men very self conscious about it. Fact is most men are more than adequate to be able to fully please a woman when it comes to size as the average penis is about 6 inches. Technique however, is a completely different question.


Do males have one rib less than females?

No. There are some people that have one or bones than most others, but most all humans, both males and females have the same pair of 12 ribs. No. The Bible simply states that God used one of Adam's ribs which of course did not change his genetic code in any way. No, they both have a pair of twelve. The idea that a man or a woman has more that the other comes from the idea that if Eve came from a rib of Adam's then somehow one or the other of them must have ended up with more. The reality is that males and females each have the exact same number of vital organs (heart lungs kidneys etc.) therefore, of course we have the same ribcage to protect them.


How many ribs does a woman have compared to a woman?

The same number as a male: 12 pairs. Of course, theologically, some would expect the male to have one less, as Adam's rib was used to create Eve according to the Bible.

How can a woman make herself unattractive to men?

Men find women of all sizes, shapes, colors and features attractive. For every woman, there is a man to find her attractive. However, after the first look, men (apart from the most shallow of men) will look deeper than appearance. An attractive woman is one who is genuine, accepts others for who they are and doesn't put others down. An attractive woman almost always has an attractive personality. Make the personality mean or spiteful, and the woman begins to look a whole lot less attractive.

Effects of gender inequality?

That's more a problem that's determined by the individual or group that is targeting the victim. It's not gender specific, it would have to be targeted toward the specific gender. But since woman and men are different there will never be gender inequality in the workplace. Woman are more empathetic than men so they will be more prevalent in field where that is a useful trait. Also it would be bad to push gender inequality on businesses, for example there are far more men in engineering than there are women. If they tried to equal out the number of men and woman hired in that field for a company there would be far less qualified people to choose from. Some men are more qualified in certain areas and some woman are more qualified than men in others. There are far fewer woman in politics than men because woman are more agreeable than men by nature so it's not a particularly good field for woman. But there are far more woman than men in nursing. There are a lot more variables than just gender when it comes to the workplace. Ya some will base there decisions based on gender but it's far less common than it's being portrayed to be. They want to keep us distracted and divided from one another and it's working just the way they want it.

How many men with less than 6 inch penis?

I think this question is too private for you to be asking; there are probably a number of men out there with less or more than six inches, but for one to find a definite answer concerning this is next to impossible. Be happy with what you have and don't be concerned with what size other men have out there.
