Body Statistics

It takes your food seven seconds to get from your mouth to your stomach.

One human hair can support 3 kg (6 lb).

The average man's penis is three times the length of his thumb.

Human thighbones are stronger than concrete.

A woman's heart beats faster than a man's.

There are about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet.

Women blink twice as often as men.

The average person's skin weighs twice as much as the brain.

Your body uses 300 muscles to balance itself when you are standing still.

If saliva cannot dissolve something, you cannot taste it.

Women reading this will be finished now.

Men who read this are probably still busy checking their thumbs.

Congratulations on all these awards you have been getting. Thank you too for mentioning 'all the bloggers' on your buddy list. I am honored to be there.

I always have been wondering about the things of women as opposed to those of men. My interest probably started when I was in the first grade. A (female) classmate tried to explain some differences to me in the privacy of our school storm cellar.

Sooooo, I'll be checking blink rates. I tend to return a blink from a lady, I should be sure to return a knowing slow blink.

A woman's heart beats PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY, PITTY-PATTY.

You are doing great, Sandee. Just having a fun blog.
