It is known that women live longer than men, regardless of their weight. But this isn't because of certain biological or non-biological factors have changed. What are these new factors? Some are well known and relatively straightforward, like the fact that men smoke more often. Certain are more complicated. 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. As you can see, every country is above the diagonal parity line , this means that in all countries the newborn girl is likely to live longer than a newborn boy.1
This chart shows that, while there is a female advantage everywhere, cross-country differences could be significant. In Russia women have a longer life span than men. In Bhutan the difference is less than half each year.
__S.17__
__S.19__
The female advantage in terms of life expectancy was lower in countries with higher incomes as compared to the present.
Let's look at how female longevity advantage has changed in the course of time. The chart below illustrates the men and women's life expectancies when they were born in the US during the period 1790 to 2014. Two distinct features stand out.
First, there is an upward trend. Women and men in America live longer than they did a century ago. This is in line with historical increases in life expectancy everywhere in the world.
The gap is increasing: While the advantage of women in life expectancy was quite small however, it has grown significantly with time.
If you select the option "Change country' on the chart, you can check that these two points also apply to the other countries having available data: Sweden, France and the UK.
