Okay, I'll just come right out and say it. Being a man is pretty great. I'm fairly strong. I don't have to worry about giving birth, and I get to pee standing up. Jackpot.

But when you take a look under the hood of the male body, there are quite a few things that are just downright weird.

Ranging from color blindness and male menopause to what's really happening below the belt,

it's time for us to learn a few little known facts about being a man.

Oh boy, this one's going to be an eye-opener for sure.

You're listening.

You're listening to be amazed.

For centuries, women were told they weren't equal to men in terms of intellect because their brains were much smaller than their male counterparts.

Over the years, though, women have constantly proven that they are more than capable of meeting and exceeding those misogynistic misconceptions.

However, in 2014, a scientific review of all studies that analyzed measurements of the human brain revealed something shocking.

Men do, in fact, have larger brains than women, ranging from about 8% to 13% larger.

They also had larger brain regions associated with memory and spatial awareness.

Women, on the other hand, had larger volumes in areas of the brain dealing with language and emotions,

but here's the thing. There is

no established link between function and size, so bigger definitely does not mean smarter. After

all, an elephant's brain is three or four times larger than a human's, and we have yet to

see an elephant score well on a calculus exam. But how can we be sure that having bigger brains definitely doesn't mean men are smarter?

Well, for those who don't know, the Darwin Awards are honors bestowed on people who accidentally

removed themselves from the human gene pool in the most spectacularly idiotic ways possible.

From fatally jet skiing off Niagara Falls to taking stupidly extreme selfies, each winner

is just that much dumber than the last.
