Not sure that's really ever been established -- or that it's just a "wives tale".



Reaction time and reflexes are largely dependent on the male or female in question. Tests done to gauge this have turned up mixed results due to the difficulty of establishing consistent testing methods. Age, training, and natural aptitude all play a part in this and makes it very hard to say for sure. However, the tests that have been performed state that men are a bit quicker to react than women.
