4 Facts Women Probably Don't Know About Their Bodies

All those facts women have learned about their bodies since they were kids? I think a lot of society was 'myth-taken'.

1. Women have different symptoms for heart attacks.

We’ve been taught since we were kids what heart attack symptoms were: chest pain, discomfort or pressure. But shockingly, the symptoms for women are different—different enough that women might not even recognize they are having a heart attack when it is happening if they aren't aware of the difference in symptoms.

2. Ripping your hymen isn’t supposed to happen

I know. It shocked me too. Every single story that has ever been told about a woman losing her virginity and bleeding everywhere? That all could have been averted. “Popping your cherry” shouldn’t be a thing if you take the time to prepare your body for sex.

3. Women look younger than men

That age-old adage about women being old and needing plastic surgery is pretty false. Women do lose collagen in their skin faster, but since men’s skin is thicker than women’s, it shows more lines and age spots.

4. Menopause doesn’t actually affect the sex drive

This myth is has also been disproved. It was often believed that a woman’s sex drive would go down because of hot flashes and other factors, but that is not the case. It may make women temporarily not in the mood, but that feeling goes away reasonably quickly.
