Why Men Die Younger Than Women (And How To Fix It)

- Most men die before women do in the United States. American women lived on to 79 years old on average in 2021, compared to men, who only live until about 73 years old, according to CDC data. The U.S. has the highest rate of avoidable deaths, which is measured as death before the age of 75, among men than any comparable country. The life expectancy gender gap can have serious implications for society as a whole.
But there hasn't always been such a large gap between men and women. What became known as "the female advantage" emerged around 1890 and continued to grow throughout the 20th century, except for a decline during the 1918 flu pandemic. This change over time suggests to researchers that there could be an environmental component to life expectancy. That means there are some steps we can take to work toward helping men live longer.
"Everybody, men as well as women, benefit from a suite of particular behaviors," Karraker said. "A healthy diet, getting physical activity, not smoking, no-to-moderate alcohol consumption, maintaining deep, supportive social relationships. These are things that benefit everybody, including men."
Watch the video above to learn why men don’t live as long as women and what we can do about it.

Why Men Die Younger Than Women (And How To Fix It)
In a video titled "Why Men Die Younger Than Women" we get the quote "it's a particular challenge for women". No one takes men's issues seriously.
Well of course it's a women's issue, who is going to make the world work if it's all women and they are all cat fighting and unable to make a decision?
Yeah, even if men die in wars, the media will say women are victims because they lose their spouse/child...
Ik its insane
oh please it’s not a woman vs men thing what are we in kindergarten? you’re perpetuating your own suffering
@@nicoleonlysometimes824 Shut up, when half the video is about how men dying early is suffering for women and hard for women, it really shows what they are really concerned about. This kind of bs won't fly in a women's video.
Title: how to help men live longer.
Content: how to help old women pay for lengthy retirements.
This US is so annoying... Everything is money here... Can't this people be less primitive and think about anything other than money? Other than retirements?... I don't know how they are not sick of themselves. This is a slave to money mentality. Get A Life! Women, women, money, money... Feels like we are dealing with monkeys instead of humans, who think only about their banana and who will give it to them... No love, no respect, no empathy. Only money. Disgusting moral standards...
My dad died at age 64 and my mom is still alive after age 100.
@@crand20033 aye, drained him and moved on. classic succubus move.
The big problem is that we are still thinking like people of the 19th century. Enough of Marxism and capitalism. They have also deceived us with that of "democracy", which is not the power of the people, but of politicians, companies, churches, etc. We need a radical change, like the Resource-Based Economy, like the one proposed by Jacque Fresco. There are no politicians in an EBR society, there are public administrators who are experts in what they do. They have studied administration, various engineering, mathematics, sociology, psychology, medicine, other sciences, etc., but none of them have studied political science or that thing that they now call economics and pretend it is a science, nothing could be further from the truth.
having kids is definitely taxing women's income and career and hence men, also the lower pay for women on avg also indirectly affect men. thats the main reason why women are gonna choose child free, career oriented life. that way men dont need to live longer just for the sake of supporting women. childfree is the future ironically.
Even while describing why men die earlier, they made it about women and how it impacts them!
Women are narcists
It's comparative
because the title asks the question in relation to women? this comment section proves you guys lack comprehension. also it’s national women’s month give us a break
@@nicoleonlysometimes824 We understand that the reason women care about men dying earlier is because they want men to support them. And no, that is not "comparative".
@@nicoleonlysometimes824 no one cares about your stupid month. We're pointing out the complete lack of care about men's issues to the point that even when men die they somehow make it about women.
We are living in an era where a video about men dying ealry is not even about men.
And they even decided to throw in TRANS people in a piece labeled "why men die earlier".
Not surprised one bit tbh
Its disgusting
"Men die earlier than women, women most affected" -- That woman at 1:15
I almost died laughing at that part, which would only have furthered the inequity.
It's almost like the world isn't black and white! and mens and womens issues can be related and intertwined
I've spoken to a dozen guys who strongly believe that it is fair to not let civilian men flee Ukraine, that their duty to fight and die while women run away. It's like Stockholm Syndrome or maybe internalized misandry
That's just like when they start saying women are the biggest victims of wars. You really need to have your head far deep in your ass to think that way
They don't care about us until it starts to affect them
1:15. A video on men's issues and women still find a way to be the victims
I was so turned off by that. It's just in their nature i guess to play the victim
always.
And its the summary of the intro basically inferring that if men lived longer then.....
women have always been the primary victims of war. - Hilary
EXACTLY!! I Was like wtf are you lady saying ??
My 75 year old dad has always said women would die as early as men if more women married other women 😂
😂😂😂😂 that’s a good one
Plot twist: there are studies that prove men who are married live longer bc women absorb all their bulls*t. In fact, marrying DECREASES a woman’s lifespan. Take responsibility for your own negative behaviors, outlook and emotions.
This is actually true
He's right
No kidding. I’ve actually read somewhere that out of all relationships (male-female, male-male, female-female), the most violent and unstable are _lesbian_ (p.s. your dad is brilliant!).
In a video about men dying earlier and having shorter lifespans, we have women complaining about not being financially supported in old age.
Certified *BRUH* moment.
I wanted to hand that ho a ho
BRUH🤦♂️
Ikr, but it would be "politically incorrect" of me or you to call them out on it. Ridiculous.
I dont expect much else from western gynocentric media!😜
man they die early cuz we work our ass off to support our family.
As a man, I'd like to apologize for not living nearly long enough to help fund the retirement of older women. I hope that CNBC & other news outlets raise awareness to the needs & wants of older women, and not waste time in trying to address the lifespan disconnect. Give me a break!
Yeah. That made me raise an eyebrow too. Men aren’t seen as people in society, and it’s scary how little anyone cares.
On behalf of all men, I want to apologize to the women that we die too soon. Our bad, just like everything else.
😂😂😂
My wife is 6 Years younger than me, so she'll live alone 12-15 years after I die on an average. Yeah I apologize.
lmao
Good lord the laugh I just had woooo
Media: woman are oppressed. Men's fault!
Also media: men die early. Men's fault!
It’s clear that it is not that they want males to live longer and healthier, but that it’s a taxation problem. Males issues suppressed as always in comparison to females. When can we just talk about males without the context to females.
Because everything is predicated on men's needs.
Read anything written before 1970. You have been the focus of everything for centuries.
@@vangu2918 According to men.
Men are viewed as tools
@do9138
Men have pros and cons
Women are the same
And we all do things better
Men are builders, Women are healers do not confuse these two for being inherently better than one.
Wait. I thought this was a discussion about how to help men? 😭
It was, some men don’t want help, they want to think they got this, not showing what they call weakness, telling anyone who cries “stop acting like a B…. Men self distrust and they are to blame for most of the misery the world have.
@@mosijahi3096 you do realize this rebuttal has nothing to do with what Gusby is complaining about.
His complaint has more to do with the fact that the video literally ends on somebody saying there should be a political party that caters towards old women.
@@woodchuck003this document is bullshxt!!!! We should Carter more towards preventing men from earlier death!!!!
Yup, and it was almost all about women
Jaja..yes, maybe next video...
For a video about men, the focus seemed to be "What happens to women."
Yeah the outtake was about how no one was trying to market to them and no political party is trying to get the vote from older women.
Even if the media discuss men's problems, they end up finding solutions for womens problems.
Bingo
@@rond5936 Because most of women's problems are caused by men.
@@janicetribbiani7535 Like what? In marriage, Men pay for most things women use.
They trying to make us live longer to support them longer lmao 😂

That’s all your worth anyways. Either way she’s getting your money. Lol jokes on you
@@hr-hq8ji Yup, they only want out money, they get it one way or another.
@@hr-hq8ji ni*** i aint gettin married save your jokes
@@hr-hq8ji I'm single and unmarried
This "story" shows why men are dropping out. Total disregard for men other than getting them to live longer in order to support women because the problem in this story is women living longer in their retirement and didn't prepare.
I doubt that men are taking themselves out in order not to support their spouses in old age.
I'm not surprised that CNBC left out the fact that nearly 100% of workplace deaths are men. The Feminists are not fighting to be in the coal mines or on construction sites.
WE HAVE A BINGO
Great point! And anytime there are segments about male suicide, it's always about how there are wives & daughters who are left behind emotionally & financially devastated. Never about the men themselves. Society really doesn't care about ordinary men except for how they can support women.
Yup. Shows how much society cares about men. Literally made this all about women.
I am 53. My ex-wife is 47. About half my income goes to support her. I work a 40 hour week and then I work about 16 hours a week at a major retailer. On weekends I drive on a ride hailing app. I do all this just to keep up with my obligations. She doesn't work. Who do you think will probably live longer?
That's not okay. Do something about it. time has passed. She can work.
Dave your killing yourself, stop that
@@rickson50 That isn't the point. Once you have a legal settlement saying you have to pay X dollars a month you have to pay X dollars a month along with whatever you need to pay your bills.
You can re-open your case. May have to pay a lawyer, but worth it. She can work too!
Awful world we live in
Because on average men work harder and get more stressed so they earn more but die earlier
They work more dangerous jobs
But it depends on where you live
@Black Lyfe doesn't matter where you live. Dangerous jobs in every city/town.
Dying after 70 is a blessing , i have seen people in 90 suffering as hell......
@@SouravKumar-ys2rw and i have seen people in their 90s still fit and healthy.
Turning someone else's issue into their own is just about the most female thing I've seen in awhile, hats off cnbc.
Came to say the same thing
The rest of the male pop. salutes you
Yes boohoo for them that they probably inherited a house and all their man's financial assets and probably remarried for more money. Like I'm sorry you as a women didn't contribute more to the retirement fund. All this means is that they didn't help their husbands. Damn do I feel gaslighted by this video.
Western society is geared towards women, men are seen as a necessary hassle to prop up women’s lifestyles. Even in a video about men dying early, they still find a way to make it about women.
Maybe I’m confused part of this was about why men die before women, and it ended with how do we cater to older women ( who seem to be a growing power base)🧐 can you make two separate vids and expand on each?
The fact that life expectancy was about the same for men and women by 1890 and women grew theier advantage ever since is probably due to the reduction in maternal mortality.
I'm shocked they didn't mention that! Childbirth is very dangerous for women!
@@banicata was* lets speak in present tense please
@@poppachoppa8956 it still is dangerous....one of the main drivers of going to a hospital to deliver a baby is there is 101 complications that could happen and unfortunately, they typically end in death.
"Every day in 2020, almost 800 women died from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth. A maternal death occurred almost every two minutes in 2020. Between 2000 and 2020, the maternal mortality ratio (MMR, number of maternal deaths per 100 000 live births) dropped by about 34% worldwide" (World Health Organization (WHO), 2023).
@@poppachoppa8956 it's still dangerous, that's why you need OBGYNs even for normal pregnancies
Negative 👎! Men and women are the same now. We can be them and they can be us.
Examples: Magic John's and Dwayne Wade's man daughters. 😶
Just like most machines , if you push them harder for longer they wear out quicker. Men typically wear out quicker.
Exercise is healthy. Biological machines are not the same as mechanical machines.
Sadly, yes and soon the women will be joining the men in earlier death. The workplace has become very brutal and savagely competitive.
@@doggygaming950 the human body Is made of trillions of machines , we exercise to aid the process for those machines to add or decrease muscle , fat reserves based on our intake . We also must help those machines with decrease levels of solar radiation , intake of pollutants which could be ingested , injected , inhaled . So on and so forth. If we could make a machine based on trillions of machines to make one large unit and manipulate their instructions on command.

As long as women constantly nag and complain, people will never recognize this.
The word patriarchy just needs to go away because it describes a concept that benefits women at the expense of men, and vice versa.
Neither. I don't know if there is a term for 'rule by wealthy atheists' but that would be it.

The real reason men die earlier than women? Lifting and lowering that dang toilet seat. You know what's on that ....
You could've just stayed single. Marriage isn't forced upon anyone. Except in heavily religious Countries.
I love how they begin by pointing out that this is challenging for woman! And it’s mainly due to men being irresponsible. Agenda?
I was saying the same thing
Prove that it’s not due to men being irresponsible
Well, they're not wrong though. Men are more likely to do dangerous and reckless things and it costs us.
@@JohnDoe-dk6lx yup I agree. I ride motorcycles. I also earn my living in construction. Have lost friends in war, logging and on construction sites. My point was the piece was so female focused…just tried of the one sided view we get from msm and wonder what their agenda may be?
@@maynardewm society tells men and women what kind of jobs they should take -- i'm sure a lot of men weren't happy about having to go to war...

My wife has told me she will not want to live without me. I don’t want her to be lonely and sad and though I am a very healthy 60 years old I am refining my diet and increasing daily activity to outlive her.
Once you die she will marry a young man.
There you go, that’s what I’m talking about.
She’s a blessed woman to have you. 💯❤️
You don't have to make any changes to your diet, just take out a one million term life insurance policy, then she will not care if you die, in fact, she will welcome it.
Alternatively you can divorce and raise your life expectancy immediately
1:12 . I can’t believe the worry about “WHY MEN DIE” is because it isn’t fair on the women who LIVE LONGER. It is hilarious at this point.
It is not hilarious, it is ridiculous.
The "equity" society in action: Men are trash
"Men don't go to the doctor and don't listen to the doctor" - Both my parents went to their doctors and religiously followed their recommendations. Both died because of it. They both took horrible medications that caused their deaths. Both died in hospitals due to negligence.
I'm guessing people that live the longest understand how to take care of themselves and don't rely on a greedy doctor to prescribe pills to compensate for bad diets and lack of exercise.
Women don’t have as much stress as men do.. men are the builders of the world.. and they work harder to make women live easier lives..
Great Just what I needed to watch lol.
My wife and I are directors of our farm business and own property, plus small pensions. I am nearly 55, my wife is 52.
We have started to save to retire from the farm, and possibly live on rental income, I'd really appreciate you go LIVE and talk about how to earn passive income online and retire comfortably, let’s say $1M.
you should consider financial planning.
@Alexander Webber Do you mind sharing info on the adviser who assisted you? been saving for pension since age 18 - company scheme. along the way I hit higher tax, so I added to my company pension with a SIPP (tax benefits) I'm 50 now and would love to grow my finance more aggressively, there are a few cars I still wish to drive, a few mega holidays, etc...
Also, if the grandma dies first, grandpa usually die a year later. But if grandpa die first, grandma could still live 5-20 years later.
Men fight deadly wars, build bridges and skyscrapers, mine metals and coal, climb and cut down 120 foot tall trees, fight fires and enforce the law in dangerous streets, and lead stressful careers as business owners. These things are not safe nor easy, but are necessary.
One young man asked an older one, why do married men live longer? he answers, son, that depends, if you marry the wrong woman, your life is finished, if you marry the right one your life is complete, BUT if you cheat on either one, your life is completely finished.
I've already made it to the median age for men (73) in the U.S. and I will continue with all the right behavioral items including diet, lifestyle and annual medical checkups, etc. After that it all comes down to genes and luck. I made it past all the dangerous stuff in my youth including motorcycle racing, hanggliding, and remote solo travel in the wilds via backpack, paddling and bicycle. My next goal is 82 the median life expectancy after age 65. I think only working 20 years of my adult life helped a lot keeping things stress free.

Truth is absolutely nobody cares in our society in the US why Men die younger than Women unless you have money, a partner or children that truly care for you. My dad is 87 and if it was not for his children and wife, he would probably have died at his 60s if he were by himself given his ailments, cost of health insurance, medicines not to mention dementia. Being a middle age guy today with no children, I realize I will die younger than my dad. I am ok with that. If I had the ailmnets my dad have or come to develop them by no means I want to live any longer. There is absolutely no good public program devoted to the well being of elderly people especially Men.
nobody gives a s### about men in this "equity"society
Living longer is a "challenge" for women? I would like to have that challenge. The public pension system benefits women a lot. The live a few year longer on average. So they get their public pension a few years longer without having paid higher premiums in the work life. So in that system men and subsidizing women.
SMH !
💯
Bro watching this wants me to die sooner.
😂💯
Why don’t they talk about the fact that the US federal government has an Office for Women’s Health but no parallel (or any) office for men’s health? I am over 70 and have struggled much during my life to find good information and medical expertise on men’s health. When I go to almost any clinic I see posters and brochures about women’s health and usually nothing specifically about men’s health. The emphasis on women’s health by government and non-profit health organizations has been very strong sing the 1980s. It’s time for them to turn SOME attention to men’s health. The US government needs to establish an Office for Men’s Health, if for no other reason than for women-as this video shows. It’s a women’s issue as well as a men’s issue.
Yes. They didn't provide solutions on how to "fix it" but made it all about the impacts on women.
We need support services for domestic violence and suicides.
We need to fix the education system that is biased towards female learning. Boys are losing out on vital education; a job is essential to a man.
More funding on cancer research and health-related issues for men. Women get the lion's share of funding even though men are the majority of the taxpayer.
Flexible arrangements for GP visits, more men work full-time jobs, and no time for doctor visits during the workday.
Support for homeless men that outnumber women.
They forgot to mention work fatality deaths that are the majority of men. Somebody has to do these dirty and dangerous jobs; I don't see female quotas in these areas.
Make divorce and family court fair. Men commit suicide when wrongfully accused and lose their assets and family.
Finally, respect men for their contributions and stop this toxic masculinity rubbish; it affects their emotional well-being.
Men are human beings, too, not just human doings.
There. Some solutions. Was that so difficult gynocentric CNBC?
7:36 this person really is trying to say how disadvantaged women are for living longer? In a video about why Men die younger?
Yes and the irony is not lost on her. Lol
It’s because we work harder, and women stress us out.
Life is harder on men, women want it equal, time to start dying earlier? 😂
Women don't want equity, far from it. They just want the few morsels where they don't have an advantage to turn in their favor. Just ask a woman if they should pay for a date and if they agree with equality, women will say "those are 2 different things' LOL.
"Women in retirement tend to have less savings and rely more on external support" *2 seconds later*
"Its not obvious why women don't have more voting power"
The best way to vote is with your wallet. The less money you have on average the less you can affect change.
Women need to stay single and child free. Don't take on unpaid labor and the burden of children and a husband. You will live longer, look youthful, and feel happier. Take care of yourselves.
"There's no political party that targets them". They both do! They're the largest voting demographic. Any politician that mentions "social security" is ostracized.
Because married men want to die first. 😂
Bruh, in a video about men living shorter lives than women due to more hazardous jobs, stressful careers, and poor mental health, they seriously chose to end it with, "Why don't they sell more things to Granny 😭"
In my own life, I have seen men not taking care of themselves as well, when there is no woman in their life, as when there is someone.
My husband is a Type II Diabetic who had never had heart or stroke issues. His identical twin began as a Type II, but is now on insulin and has had two strokes and a heart attack over the past few years. He doesn't have a wife around to make sure he takes his meds, goes to the doctor, etc. Meanwhile, I've had to hand my husband his pills when he's often forgotten (really, avoided) taking them. I've been the one to make sure he sees a doctor at the slightest sign of any possible issues, and I make sure he wears his mouthpiece for his Sleep Apnea (mostly because he snores so loudly without it).
It does fall under the umbrella of "men don't seek out health care" mentioned here, but I think it does factor in when a partner is there to push for men to seek out care.
I agree. Also I am so fed up by the way the overall society treats us, that I silently and passively fight and revenge it. I will not do any noble thing anymore and will stop all my "niceness" desires. Neither will I work a lot, nor will I invent. This world has me fed up with its attitude towards me, and towards men in general. I will not defend this country. Will protect my interest. And take care of my health. This is my revenge. Done without 1 scream in total silence (well except for a comment like this one). Let's see how this world will "prosper" if all of us revenge this way... This society is a Junkyard of anti-men attitudes that doesn't deserve anything nice from us...
And it begins at birth.

Your brother in-law sounds like my brother in-law, same deal, he would have been dead many times over if my sister didn't check on him several times a night and make sure he takes his pills etc. I think it's different to other health issues though in that it seems to effect their judgment, he doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong with him and he's now on Dialysis .
As more young men and women not getting married, they will eventually take care themself in all their life, so it doesn't matter who dies early in the future.
“Men don’t go to the doctor. When they do go they don’t listen to the doctor’s advice”.
Yep, this sounds just like my Dad 😅. Allergic to instructions
or sounds like men are busy working and cannot waste time with doctors that make you wait for two hours before seeing you. Women on the contrary have plenty of time
I am a guy who likes outdoor activities like hiking, eating healthy food, and having upbeat social interactions. Much of the time when doing things in a group, the other participants are mostly women. Meanwhile, the men often seem to be at home on the couch watching TV, eating crap, and griping about people they don't like. I suspect that behavioral differences such as this may have a lot to do with the longevity difference.
most of the time are women in your groups because they have plenty of time, while their men support them. Did you pay attention to the video???? Women complaining what they will do if their men die. No sadness because the husband is dead ...
My mum and my wife’s mum died before there husband’s. But both men ended up in a old peoples home. Living longer really depends on the quality of that life . I’m retired now and do not want to end up in a old peoples home , where the keep you going just to get £1200 a week from you.
Your wife's mom is called mother in-law 🤔
"When men are married who screams like you, they just want to die sooner" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I have an elder who is over 97. She sleeps, eats little, and used to love politics; now she cannot remember what country she lives in, cannot follow a movie or remember her married name. She spends her time listening to music in a communal hall simply because the nurse wheeled her out because it is easier for them to look after the people in the old-aged home if they are in one room.

I saw one reason explored for why men die younger (suicide seems to be the only disparate cause that got more than a sentence, with a casual reference to a couple other factors) and absolutely nothing about how to fix men dying younger. Or, was I supposed to read this as, "and how to fix the way that hurts women?"
A video about men's issue, but they manage to cram in women, race, trans issue into it.
Gotta give it to CNBC!
“Because of a woman I die a little each day”
-AL Bundy
Because of nature and aging, we all die a little each day.
Being with a Woman is a choice. It is NOT forced upon any Man.
There are other options. Men choose to "die a little everyday."
@@janicetribbiani7535 epic platitude, thanks for your wisdom
women:- why do we women lives longer than men
men:- women and children first xd
That's not men's fault. I've seen hundreds of women shaming civilian men who fled Ukraine while being supportive of women who did the same
The gap in life expectancy is only going to increase here in the USA with suicide, drugs, incarceration, obesity...
And yet here, male can retire for pension at 67 and woman at 62!!! and then they call for inequality! BS!!!
A self made man will have to risk everything to get ahead, because if they are not successful they will be alone and unloved in this world.
Because women blame men all the time.
LOL!!
Cracked the code
My dad is 83 and still alive and kicking. He outlived all of his siblings, parents, etc. His dad (my grandpa) died in 1962 from lung cancer. Grandma passed away at 88 years old in 1998.

Evidence?
what is your point? How your comment relates to the video???
@@MichaelClerk-xd6ft did you even watch the video? Men live shorter than women but my dad is way above average. don’t be so rude.
@@GalenlevyPhoto my point is that you are bringing up a one-case anecdote. The video is about averages over entire populations. Did you watch the video?
Q: Why do husbands typically die before their wives?
A: Because they want to.
*They NEEED to..
My father was very ill but always hid it coz he wanted to give that spared money to his children
I've decided that I'm NOT gonna do the whole death thingy. 😶
That's how religions started
both of these made me laugh so much! 😂
Because women are generally shorter than men and short people tend to live longer than taller people.
I remember a study that was sponsored by Congress in the 1970s on the conditions that affect the health and longevity of seniors.
The report had identified that the most important factors are a positive attitude and a good self esteem.
People with a strong self esteem will tend to take more care of their health: by eating a balance diet and doing physical and mental activities.
A positive attitude is a good help to manage the stress.
People with good health will have a positive attitude and develop a good self esteem, which leads to them eating a balanced diet and doing physical and mental activities.
And then we gave them lots of bad advice about nutrition. It turns out most major nutritional advice since the 1970s has been wrong.
Now blame men broadly (the patriarchy) for all of society's problems (despite the number of men actually responsible for those problems being a small cohort of men overall) and see how their self-esteem holds up. You can only blame someone for the problems of their forefathers, problems they had no hand in creating, for so long before the system starts to break down.
@@simulatethat6099 The 17th-century lawyer and philosopher Nicolas Boileau once wrote (this my English translation) : ‘’What is well conceived is clearly stated and the words to say it arrive easily.’’
My professor has given me that quote when my dissertation was not well written!
@@lambertois11 Excellent! One so well spoken should have no difficulty deciphering my cryptic scribbles then!
I live in sub-continent and my Grandfather used to say that only happiness that men can give is when they are born. Then parents and this society invests 16 to 18 years in them. After that they are expected to provide till they die.
I guess this goes for all the men around the world.
And anyone who doesn't conform to the societal norms is isolated, made fun of and their lives made miserable as a result. All men are is sperm bank and cash cow these days and in times of war cannon fodder.
nope
If you stay single and unmarried you can live better
@@Someone345y True, MGTOW is on rise.
Maybe because most men are in trades/ blue collar jobs? Stressful physical situations?
Why is there no mention of the court system in favor of women impacting male life expectancy? If a man has to financially support two households, the stress is going to have an impact on him. Whether it manifests itself in alcoholism, suicide, or other forms of stress/depression, it is a factor for his livelihood. And the most stressful part is that he can be forced into that situation even though he did nothing wrong (ie the woman is unfaithful).
Amazing how they turned the concept of men dying earlier and having shorter lives into a feminist issue and that women suffer lmao
Reaching puberty slower is a strong indicator or higher life expectancy. If women were equal instead of privileged, men would potentially outlive them
Puberty is a curse!!! True! Delay that curse!!! Speaking of this privilege you think women have? May I grant males the privilege of a monthly cursed period? Every month for many years until I guess age 55, this will be your privilege of miserable hormone cycling. Generally speaking, neither males or females are equal or privileged. We all individually face a unique existence of variable life advantages/disadvantages/opportunities/on and on. Really and truly, we're altogether just these tiny Earthly beings that come into being for only a little while.
@@Starry_Night_Sky7455 that is well said I definitely agree with you.
@Bonnie Hundley It's always a loud minority of women who complain about period. I know only 1 girl like that in real life, other than that, it's just whiners on the internet. You are privileged enough to live 5 years longer due to lower work related stress, that is, if you even bother to work. You make up 7% of workplace fatalities, 24% of suicide and homicides, 20% of the homeless. You still can't legally commit r ape against a man or another woman, only statutory against a child. You initiate the majority of DV cases, yet society talks about 'violence against women'.
@@simpdefendmlady6579 One more thing....remember the recent Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard court case? Well to show you I do understand that yes there are women trying to play the system all the while harming another person that is a man, I listened to that case play out finalizing the jury decision in favor of Depp. It was obvious Heard was the more violent of the two. She was rotten malicious all the while faking being the victim. That was pretty bad! Yes men need to be believed and deserve support resources in the case of DV.
@Bonnie Hundley It may be hard to imprison or take any legal action against women who commit DV, but it's impossible to do the same for SA or r ape. Women's groups around the world have stopped legislation changes that would make r ape a gender neutral crime. Each year, the UK government throws out an online petition meant to include women in the definition of r ape and so on.
It is wise for man to stay single, so we don't need to support gf or wife and live longer.
but humans are built to want a partner
good luck, but I'm going to get one... would be careful about compatibility and everything will be fine

Occasionally 😁
Why Men die younger than Women:
1. Stubborn
2. Take more risks in life, Example: riding motorcycles
3. Take on the more dangerous jobs
4. Black and young
5. Russian young men because they drink a lot
You are welcome. Saved you all 10 minutes.
😮😮My 94 year old mom told me that Single women live longer than married women and married men live longer than single men.
Yep! Backed up by research!
my stepfather died at age 85 and 5 months and he was a smoker for over 45 years and was diabetic. He must've had great genes.
Yes, he definitely had great genes if he didn’t smoke or became a diabetic he probably would have lived til over 100 yrs(e.g. centennial gene).
yes, but how was his quality of life and health the last several years? that's more important than how long you live...
I wonder if outcomes-based health equity policies should then require more resources to be focused on male longevity.
It should but thats never going to happen >_
Nobody cares about helping men. Men are doing worse in school at all levels, but all resources are directed towards helping women in school.
What is shocking about the comments I have read and the video, is that men are like this and women are like that. What we really mean is some men are like this and some women are like that. To generalize removes personal control, responsibility and our differences. I’m tired of hearing that because I am a man, I am must be like all men. The same applies to ethnic background too. I suppose I am not alone thinking this way.
Millennials and gen z are looking at this like, “hold my beer boys”
Nothing about risky behaviour among black men. Only discrimination?🤔
Can't expect to see an objective video on this channel
Here in the US, there is a popular hymn called 'I'll fly away.' All us guys heard that, and took it literally. After all, what's the problem with five years shaved off the worst part of life?
Longer life also means that the worst part of it is pushed back.
That men genuinely are their achievements or lack of them (no intrinsic value) is a big part of this.
"It's a particular challenge for women" because they have to support themselves BEING ALIVE after their husband is DEAD!? How did this woman manage to spin this scenario to make women the victim? 😅
Women are always portrayed as victims.
I understand if you didn't catch what they mentioned cuz they covered it pretty briefly, but something they touched on was that women have for a lot of history been conditioned to be caregivers, which causes gaps in their careers (women are usually forced to disproportionately take care of children, their husbands, and elderly parents or sick family members). Since women are usually made to fill these roles cuz socially it's not usually as expected for men to take them up, they usually have gaps in their career history, which is less put towards a company-offered 401k and the like. Women also typically receive lower pay for the same comparative jobs that men receive, are less likely to be taken seriously for promotions, benefits, etc. Most of this just stems from subconscious bias due to long standing cultural norms (like how women were not really allowed to have a job until WWII, and when the war ended a ton of women were fired so men could take their jobs instead). Women are usually expected from a very young age to focus on the needs of others and put then above their own. There's sort of a morality put on acts of service, culturally, for women. It's not something enforced out of deliberate command in present day, but more cultural habits that have lingered through the years from history. There's a lot of expectations on women to take care of their husbands in similar ways that they have to take care of their kids, or a sick elderly parent and so on. I expect things might change in the future, but a lot of the elderly men alive today are products of the past cultural norms where gender roles were enforced in an ever stronger way. This kind of outdated mentality is the same sorts of attitude that has old men not taking their medicine unless their wives "nag" them, or engaging in unhealthy habits unless their wives scold them and so on. The past gender roles created an environment where wives basically had to be a different form of parent to their husbands. Some of this is men not learning a lot of important life skills needed to take care of oneself because they didn't need to: a woman was always there to do things for them. Since it's more common now for people to go out to college, live on their own, move out, etc, I think life skills are a bit more equal among the sexes than they have been for a lot of history. A lot of the things you probably do normally each day, a man in the 50s would never do. You likely know how to cook yourself a meal, wash your own clothes, etc, but in the past men just didn't do these things most of the time. Women were groomed to perform all these "services". But, as mentioned earlier, all these expectations on women have in history led to inconsistent job histories plus the wage gap issue (which is just data, not a political opinion or anything). I think the video mentioned the women's retirement thing cuz there's different social and economic effects from the lifespan differences, and it affects people's families and the economy. I hope that was explained better than the video. 10 minutes is a pretty short time to go over a more in depth subject but I wish you well friend and hope life serves you well 🙏
It’s interesting they did not mention working. I think for men, retiring and not having a sense of purpose really kills them fast. I saw that with my grandfather. As soon as he retired, he sat on the couch and died early 70s because he had no sense of purpose.
I plan to work as long as I’m alive. Not for income, I have enough, but for keeping my brain and a sense of purpose. I plan to work in charity.
No one dies because they lack a sense of purpose.
It’s more about being active than working. Retirees who stay physically active are healthier then individuals who sit on the sofa all day. That’s why a lot of retirees for example do gardening, or start golfing, or volunteer, going for long daily walks, etc.. to stay active.
Maybe he was worn out, or had a health issue you don't know about. You would need his medical records to be certain. I don't think you have a great plan. You're thinking like a workaholic. I suppose if your profession makes you happy, then well done! 👍 You have found your calling. I hope you have leisure in your life too. That would be double awesomeness.
@@xxxxMonkeyGirlxxxx If someone is not desiring to be active, the person might have health issues. Active elderly people are likely just fortunately healthy, for whatever reason. Inactive people might like to be active but cannot just leap up and get going. Usually older people have an accumulation of orthopedic issues. I say let them take it easy.
@@Minarreal I respectfully disagree. I think depression, and not having a sense of purpose are very much tight together and can cause premature death.
We can agree to disagree: )
I thought this video would be about policies that would help men live healthier and more fulfilling lives. I was wrong.
Woman leave longer than man, man work more years till retirement, yet they repeat three time how woman have a particular problem! Unbelievable!!!
Men stop buying life insurance. Just enough for funeral services
It’s simple, men don’t go to the doctor, we eat everything we want, & we stress way more because no one is here to help men when we are down. It’s comes with the title
noone cares of men
I'm sorry that you don't have a female to help you out by you're able to take care of yourself if you love yourself!
@@edyann this thing about "loving yourself" is a woman struggle, not mans
@@renand3z Ah, ok. I admit that we have much insecurities than males but we're still living longer so who knows. Take care of yourself, please. All of us. Both physically and mentally. Exercising as we speak so have a great one.
Actually, men should die faster, but die a great person with good deeds and well recognition for his charitable character amongst people. The longer you live, the less valuable you become.
I can confirm that risky behavior is more common in men and that has a huge impact shortening our life expectancy. I for example still like fast cars and I get a thrill when I run down the drag strip, it’s dangerous I try to manage it but I really enjoy it. I’m not alone, many men out there are just like me. The ones who aren’t are likely suffering from excessive stress at their jobs, men tend to earn more because we are more willing to work out to death, we are more likely to take dangerous jobs that pay well, i served in the military and it’s mostly men, i deployed to a war zone as a contractor, also mostly men. I would bet as someone else has already stated that the reason women’s life expectancies shot up past mens is probably due to decreased mortality in child birth which is awesome. Also around that time life expectancy for men was probably around 50 years so a 73 year life expectancy is much better, my grandfather only lived to 63, he had kidney failure, had a transplant and lived 10 years after that, so looking at that if I make it to 75 I think I’ll have done good. I am not worried about how long I live but how many healthy years I get, I want to be able to do things and live on my own until I die. Trying to live a healthy lifestyle is probably the best hope we have but I still think women will outlive us, I have often wondered why men seek younger women, we should be seeking slightly older women that way we both die at the same time, just my thoughts.
I have no offspring personally and so I agree. Men with children or are happily married(or both) might try harder to take care of themselves. I'd rather die for a noble cause, such as protecting someone, while I can still wipe my butt instead of waiting to die in bed.
Just my opinion. 🤷♂
I think so about men are likely to take more risks than women!
I'd think the reason men seek younger women after their first ones because the new ones are more sexually attractive...:-)
Well said, as a man being healthy and taking responsibility and not making excuses and blaming women is definitely a good idea.
There are safer ways to get a similar thrill. It sounds weird, but you should consider getting a velomobile. Because you are low to the ground and pedalling yourself and the body is ultra lightweight, (if you get a top of the line ultralight model) it seems like you are going way faster than you are. It is the most fun vehicle I have driven, more fun than ninja zxr-600 believe it or not. On top of that it is good for your health too.
I can confirm risky behavior as well: Often we marry 😄
There are people complaining that this video is about women, when it should be about men. And I think men are commenting this because they are in need of videos discussing these topics. I think men need to hear empathic things as much as possible. I heard that men rarely get compliments on their appearance, for example. Lots of men are insecure and don’t feel comfortable expressing that. I hope we can all be strong and help each other in this crazy world! No point in pointing fingers.
You're right, but the tone of the video was a bit awkward in places.
Why aren't men complimenting men more? My brother's friends compliment each other and they don't have this problem. I, as a heterosexual woman, receive the most compliments from other women.
I am 74, and I have been told I was handsome once, by a female cousin who said it casually in passing. I don't believe that I'm handsome, but I do believe I'm not ugly.
No, men don't need compliments. What men need are considerations and not being neglected. For instance, K-12 is dominated by women, and so boys are being raised by women. We need to address this because boys aren't going to college, because of women. And boys are being raised to feel like garbage while women are encouraged to succeed.
We need to address all the INEQUITIES that men have. But for some reason society fails that. We all assume men can take care of themselves
Men don't want pity or compliments, they want REAL CHANGE.
Other considerations, men suffering from PTSD, men who serve in combat are severely neglected. Men with suicidal issues are neglected. Men who don't know how to create personal contacts and friends need to be addressed.
SADLY, thanks to Feminism and WOKE society, men are not only seen as not having problems, men are seen as the villains and are the problem.
The TRUE REALITY is women live FAR BETTER lives than men in America. But you would never know it watching CNN/MSNBC.
There is 1 idea they never discuss. Men live shorter due to wives nagging them to death.
