Women Men Love
A woman is an adult female human. Prior to adulthood, a female human is referred to as a girl (a female child or adolescent). The plural ''women'' is sometimes used in certain phrases such as "women's rights" to denote female humans regardless of age. Typically, women inherit a pair of X chromosomes, one from each parent, and are capable of pregnancy and giving birth from puberty until menopause. More generally, sex differentiation of the female fetus is governed by the lack of a present, or functioning, SRY-gene on either one of the respective sex chromosomes. Female anatomy is distinguished from male anatomy by the female reproductive system, which includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, and vulva. A fully developed woman generally has a wider pelvis, broader hips, and larger breasts than an adult man. Women have significantly less facial and other body hair, have a higher body fat composition, and are on average shorter and less muscular than men. Througho ...

Wings Of Pride
A wing is a type of fin that produces Lift (force), lift while moving through air or some other fluid. Accordingly, wings have Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines, streamlined Cross section (geometry), cross-sections that are subject to aerodynamic forces and act as airfoils. A wing's Aerodynamics, aerodynamic efficiency is expressed as its lift-to-drag ratio. The lift a wing generates at a given speed and angle of attack can be one to two order of magnitude, orders of magnitude greater than the total drag (physics), drag on the wing. A high lift-to-drag ratio requires a significantly smaller thrust to propel the wings through the air at sufficient lift. Lifting structures used in water include various Foil (fluid mechanics), foils, such as hydrofoils. Hydrodynamics is the governing science, rather than aerodynamics. Applications of underwater foils occur in Hydroplane (boat), hydroplanes, sailboats and submarines. Etymology and usage For many centuries, the word "wing", fr ...
