It would just have been assimilated in.

But because we've been so drawn into, we have a crossover, here's one week, crossover next week, because of male physiology, when you add women's hormone fluctuations in, people are like, oh, it's too complex.

Yeah.

Well, I mean, we can look from a morphological standpoint where men have more of our fast twitch fibers.

Women are born with more endurance fibers.

When we're talking about muscle, yeah.

So men have more of the ability to do power and really fast, energetic type activities.

Women are more attuned to endurance type activities.

And this affects metabolism.

It affects blood glucose, homeostasis.

And when we're looking at bone and bone density, men have stronger bones.

They can acquire more load.

They hold on to it better than women do.

We see smaller lungs, smaller heart, less hemoglobin in women than men, and that's an offshoot of what testosterone does.

So there are just basic physiological differences between XX and XY that people don't really assimilate and understand.

And the way I like to say it is you go into a shop and you have a men's section and a women's section, and there are touch points on the external that really identify gender and or sex.

But when you look intrinsically, no one is identifying those touch points until now.

It seems to be a surprise all the time.

Yeah.

I get pushed back all the time.
