Study: Men have grown taller and heavier at more than twice the rate of women.

Researchers from Italy , the United States and the United Kingdom analyzed data from more than 100,000 people across 69 countries.

Each 0.2 increase in the HDI saw an increase in height for women and 4.03 centimeters ( 1.59 inches ) for men.

The trend was also confirmed by assessing data from the World Bank’s Gini Index.

This means that for me to grow, “it takes longer and it’s more expensive, but that makes the male body more vulnerable to perturbations, to problems, to influences by the environment,” Halsey said.

The study shows that any trait that is more prominent in one sex than the other could be affected by a more demanding environment.
