Everywhere in the world women live longer than men - but this was not always the case. The available data from rich countries shows that women didn't live longer than men in the 19th century. What makes women live more than men do today, and why have these advantages gotten bigger in the past? The evidence is sketchy and we're only able to provide limited solutions. We know that biological, behavioral and environmental factors contribute to the fact that women have longer life spans than men, however, we do not know what the contribution of each one of these factors is.
It is known that women live longer than males, regardless of weight. But, this is not due to the fact that certain biological or ماذا يحدث بين الزوجين في الحمام بالصور (glorynote.com officially announced) non-biological factors have changed. The factors changing are numerous. Some are well known and relatively straightforward, like the fact that men smoke more often. Others are more complex. For example, there is evidence that in rich countries the female advantage increased in part because infectious diseases used to affect women disproportionately a century ago, so advances in medicine that reduced the long-term health burden from infectious diseases, especially for survivors, ended up raising women's longevity disproportionately.
Everywhere in the world women tend to live longer than men
The first chart below shows life expectancy at birth for men and women. It is clear that all countries are above the diagonal line of parity. This implies that a baby girl in every country can anticipate to live longer than her older brother.
This chart shows that, while there is a female advantage across all countries, differences between countries could be significant. In Russia women are 10 years older than men, while in Bhutan the difference is less than half one year.
__S.17__
__S.19__
In the richer countries, the female advantage in longevity was not as great.
Let's look at how the advantage of women in life expectancy has changed over time. The chart below shows gender-based and female-specific life expectancy at the time of birth in the US in the years 1790 to 2014. Two areas stand out.
First, there is an upward trend. Both genders in America have longer lives than they used to 100 years ago. This is in line with historical increases in life expectancy everywhere in the world.
Second, the gap is widening: While the female advantage in life expectancy used to be extremely small It has significantly increased over time.
