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 in all countries that a baby girl can be expected to live for longer than a new boy.1
The chart above shows that the advantage of women exists everywhere, اوضاع الجماع (visit the following post) the difference between countries is huge. In Russia, women live 10 years more than males. In Bhutan the difference is less that half a year.
__S.17__
__S.19__
In wealthy countries, the female advantage in longevity was not as great.
Let's look at how female longevity advantage has changed over time. The following chart shows the male and female life expectancies at the birth in the US in the years 1790-2014. Two distinct points stand out.
First, there's an upward trend: Men as well as 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 increasing: While the female advantage in life expectancy was quite small It has significantly increased with time.
By selecting 'Change Country from the chart, you can check that these two points are applicable to other countries with available data: Sweden, France and the UK.
