The article discusses the Hippocratic understanding of the physiological differences between men and women, particularly focusing on the concept of porosity in women's bodies compared to men's. It explains that women are perceived to be more porous and capable of absorbing moisture more effectively due to their body composition, which is likened to wool, while men's bodies are described as dense and compact, similar to thick cloth. This difference is illustrated through examples involving wool and cloth, as well as the structure of glands in both sexes. The article also touches on the belief that women's excessive porosity is not solely a natural trait but is exacerbated by their supposedly inactive lifestyles, contrasting with the more robust and less porous nature of men's bodies, which are strengthened through labor. Overall, the text reflects ancient medical theories that sought to explain gender differences through physical and lifestyle attributes.
