Study finds men’s belts resemble collision bumpers
A new study has found that modern human men have developed a specific adaptation in their pelvis that helps them walk more efficiently over long distances, while women have maintained a pelvis shape similar to that of our ancestors and early humans, resembling that of Neanderthals. The study showed that the pelvis of modern men has become more streamlined, with a 2.6 cm increase in the height of the hip socket, which contributes to reducing the effort required for walking and enhances their ability to travel long distances. This adaptation may have helped them in activities such as hunting and tracking prey. Therefore, these changes are among the reasons why men can walk more efficiently, with an improvement in energy consumption during movement.
