I rarely see women getting hurt badly. If I do see, it's one of those that play sports. Wheneer I go to the dr's. Cause I go there a lot, I never see women my age(30's) or young.
Seems men are kind of stupid. We do things before thinking so we get injured

I reckon that activity for activity, women are slightly more likely to get injured than men, the angle of hip and thigh puts a slightly great strain on the knees in certain sports. But men are much more likely to throw themselves at a sport they are not good at without proper training, while women pace themselves.
I'm a keen skier, and I see a lot of men who literally throw themselves down the mountain, and just hope they arrive at the bottom in one piece. The women are more likely to check the piste map and the warning flags to make sure it's doable, and then to take their time so they don't hit any nasty surprises on the way.

I think you answered your question with that last sentence. There is a reason why most car accidents for example are caused by teenage boys rather than girls. Men tend to show off more and have the constant urge to be the MAN , as in being able to do anything or fix anything. Men are also the ones in the jobs that are more physically demanding and have more risks to them than women do. I wouldn't call all men stupid but they lack the sensibility that women have in some situations.
