Men Evolving Faster than Women?

Could It Be?

Wow, this could certainly be a controversial statement, and I certainly wouldn’t want to be standing in a room of staunch feminists if I were the scientist that was trying to make this claim, but some evidence of chromosomal and DNA research is showing that the Y chromosome (this is what actually makes a man a man), which is expressed in the males of the human species, is actually showing that it evolves faster than the female chromosome, which may allude to the fact that men are on track to evolve quicker than women will.

Of all the human chromosomes out there, the Y chromosome seems to be the one that is evolving the quickest, and it’s showing in monkeys, our closest relatives genetically speaking too, in fact that’s how scientists found out about this rapid evolution – from male chimpanzees, who are our closest relative when it comes to animal-human relations.

What does this mean exactly?  Well, not too much on the surface, everything pretty much seems to be the same to us here at the surface of humanity, but below, there is much to study as it can have implication on genetic research from here going forward that can help treat and cure disease and other things.

The interesting part about the y chromosome is that several years back, science hypothesized that the Y chromosome would die out and that men would eventually become exinct, with women inheriting the world. Interesting….
