Abstract
Of the explanations advanced in respect of the observed inequality in the viability and longevity of the sexes in man, the sex‐linked lethal theory advocated by Lenz (1923), Gunther (1923), Geiser (1924–5), Huxley (1924), Schirmer (1929), amongst others, has attracted most support. One reason for this is undoubtedly that it is a genetic theory promulgated at a time when biological thought was being profoundly influenced by the many spectacular discoveries which had been made in this particular science.
