Milton while describing Adam and Eve in one of the most beautiful passages in “Paradise Lost”. Those majestic lines with their lyrical grandeur clearly outline the basic differences between the two sexes, which are visible even to the most casual observer. Like a true artist, Milton painted a perfect picture of the female form in all its voluptuous glory, to enable us to imagine the delicate curves and contours that are sym¬metrically arranged on a slender frame and the quips and cranks and wanton wiles that enmesh the masculine heart.
In complete contrast to the erotic lure of the female body, Milton glorified the larger and more muscular build of the human male which indicates the strength, authority and absolute rule. Of the two sexes, man being bigger and stronger is in a better position to perform various physical feats. Men can run faster, carry greater weights than women, hit a tennis ball harder and deliver a greater punch with their fists in boxing. But their superiority ends here.
For all their so-called softness and curves women like the females of other species seem to have a biological advantage over men in respect of capacity for survival. It is observed that women not only live longer than men but their survival rate exceeds man’s throughout life starting from the womb itself.
