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.

Everywhere in the world women tend to live longer than men
The first chart below shows life expectancy at birth for men and women. We can see that every country is above the diagonal parity line , this means in all countries the newborn girl is likely to live for longer than a new boy.1
The chart above shows that although the female advantage exists everywhere, اضيق وضعية للجماع the cross-country differences are large. In Russia women have an average of 10 years more than males; while in Bhutan the difference is just half one year.
__S.17__
__S.19__
In rich countries the female advantage in longevity was smaller
Let's look at how female longevity advantage has changed in the course of time. The next chart plots the life expectancy of males and females at birth in the US from 1790 to 2014. Two distinct features stand out.
There is an upward trend: Men and women in the US are living much, much longer today than a century ago. This is in line with historical increases in life expectancy everywhere in the world.
The gap is growing: Although the female advantage in life expectancy used to be very small It has significantly increased in the past.
You can confirm that the points you've listed are applicable to other countries with information by clicking on the "Change country" option in the chart. This includes the UK, France, and Sweden.
