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 every country is above the diagonal line of parity. This implies that a baby girl from every country could be expected to live for longer than her brother.
This chart shows that, although women have an advantage throughout the world, the differences between countries could be significant. In Russia, women live 10 years longer than men. In Bhutan, the difference is less than half a calendar year.
__S.17__
__S.19__
In rich countries the longevity advantage for women was not as great.
Let's take a look at how the female longevity advantage has changed in the course of time. The chart below shows men and women's life expectancies at birth in the US from 1790 until 2014. Two areas stand out.
The first is that there is an upward trend. Both genders living in America are living longer than they were 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 was very small, it has increased substantially over time.
If you select the option "Change country by country' in the chart, confirm that the two points also apply to the other countries having available data: Sweden, France and the UK.
