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's the reason why women live longer than men? Why the advantage has grown as time passes? There isn't much evidence and اوضاع الجماع - Glorynote's website - we have only limited answers. We know there are biological, psychological as well as environmental factors that play an integral role in women's longevity more than men, we don't know what percentage each factor plays in.
We know that women live longer than males, regardless of weight. But, this is not because of certain biological factors have changed. What are these factors that have changed? Some are well known and relatively straightforward, like the fact that men smoke more often. There are other issues that are more intricate. 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 we can see, every country is above the diagonal line of parity - which means that in every country that a baby girl can be expected to live for longer than a newborn boy.1
The chart below shows that although women have an advantage throughout the world, the differences between countries could be significant. In Russia, women live for 10 years longer than men. In Bhutan, the difference is less than half a calendar year.
__S.17__
__S.19__
In countries with high incomes, the longevity advantage for women used to be smaller
Let's examine how the female longevity advantage has changed over time. The chart below illustrates the gender-based and female-specific life expectancy at the birth in the US between 1790 to 2014. Two distinct points stand out.
There is an upward trend. Both men and women in the US have a much longer life span longer today than 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 terms of life expectancy was extremely small It has significantly increased over time.
Using the option 'Change country from the chart, you are able to confirm that the two points are applicable to other countries that have available data: Sweden, France and the UK.
