    Why are women more prone to faint than are men?

    Question #96232. Asked by star_gazer. (Jun 01 08 8:51 AM)


    jbooker8

    		Women's blood contains more water than men's (20% fewer red cells). Since the red cells supply oxygen to the body cells, women tire more and SOME are more prone to fainting.
