It was break time when me and my friend talked about men and women. One of them told me that men have lesser ribs than women. I was like an innocent looking at her with disbelief. I never really believe in that and never would I hear about that. I remember there was a story on the Bible about Adam and Eve. But never thought that it’s for real. I was so clueless….

So my other friend agreed to her. I was about to believe…I couldn’t help it so I searched it on the net. I found a website Creation Tips and somehow found the answer to the question: Is it true that men have lesser ribs than women?

Absolutely the answer is “NO”.

Creation Tips states that:

The best way to test this belief is to compare a male’s skeleton with a female’s. When you do this, you find that men and women have 12 pairs of ribs each.

The belief that a lost rib, or a cut-off thumb, or a chopped-off tail, could pass from parent to child was a theory, long-discredited, derived from the ideas of French biologist Lamarck.

So I feel relieve now, now that I know the truth… ^_^
