Women needs to sleep more than man because they are smarter and use
brains more than man and this has been finally proved by a research that women
have more complex brain activity as compared to men.
A study was done in England's Loughborough University which revealed
that women are multi - taskers and they require higher amounts of brain
activities which uses more region of the brain than men do, so they need to
take more rest by sleeping.
John Horne who is a sleep expert told that one of the major functions of
sleep is to allow the brain to recover and repair itself. The more brain you
use during the day, the more it needs to recover and consequently, the more
sleep you need.
According to study women needs to sleep 20 minutes more than men per
night. It is was further found in the study that man who has a mentally
demanding job, one requiring lots of lateral thinking tasks and decision making
will need more sleep than the average male but not as much as a woman.
Another study was done on 949 people in 2014 where the results suggested
that men's brains had more connection within each brain hemisphere as compared
to women's brains which had more connections between the two hemispheres.
The above study also suggested that men are able to focus more on one
task at a time as compared to woman who can do multi- tasking with more focus
at a time. So women's are better multi-tasker than men.
The director of the Brain Science Centre at the Minneapolis Veterans
Affairs (VA) Medical Center, Dr. Apostolos Georgopoulos told that women's
brains are surely different from men's brains because they have found that
women, in many different tasks, process information about 5 times faster than men and also uses much less
of their brain to do identical cognitive performances.
