A member asked:

I'm wondering why are women's hips curved while men's are straight?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Wide pelvis: Several reasons a female pelvis is wider for childbirth requiring different angles in the femur (thigh bone) and knee. A mans muscles esp in the thighs are much larger giving a sleeker appearance. Also women store more fat and one of the areas a lot is stored is the hips.
