Well now, here's an example of gender bias entirely ?configured by Mother Nature - women are more likely than men to get asthma because we lack the protection of the male ?hormone testosterone . 额，这完全是一个由大自然构成的性别偏见的例子--女性比男性更容易患哮喘，这是因为我们缺乏男性激素睾酮的保护。 We also have more of a particular immune cell which responds to inflammation by producing mucus, leading to coughing and wheezing. Turns out testosterone blocks these injurious immune cells and thereby the development of asthma. 我们体内的特定免疫细胞也更多，这些细胞通过分泌粘液来响应炎症，导致咳嗽和哮鸣。原来睾酮会阻断这些有害的免疫细胞，从而预防哮喘。 |
