because they don't have women to aggravate them-
nyehehe

TonyB looks like men are affected all over the world.

It's so they can have the last word.-
Yes

Men tend to do things that may lead to poor health like smoking, stress at work, drinking, or even sex.
On the other hand women tend to be more health-conscious. But things might change in the future.
And one more thing, men need women to live on.. :-D
hope this helps!-
You got your point there, but sex is a basic need of human and is a form of exercise that makes our heart healthy.
-
I agree, sex is now the basic need... everyone needs it.. :-D

Women shed out their stress, emotions by crying. Men don't do that.Men can't live with out women but women can.
Here is an interesting information on the subject.
They don't get heart attacks as much as men do.

@aries33 I fully agree with you, My heart seems to be very healthy, hehehe.

hahaha

because they kill us.. -
Because 2 X chromosomes make you weaker! Bru-ha-ha-ha!
And because we ladies visit the doctor and get help sooner if we are sick or experiencing something "not right" with our bodies, do preventative check-ups, and thus find problems sooner. You guys avoid the doctor until you are at death's door.-
why can't it be the y that makes the difference?? -
okay...the Y makes us strong (I suddenly hear Helen Reddy singing to me)
-
So what does that make us who are XXY? -
Superheroes? -
Boy I'm in trouble, then. I never go to the doctor unless a limb is falling off or my brains are spilling out....and even then.... -
I never go to the doctor, either, without ignoring whatever symptom is causing concern until I'm absolutely certain it won't clear up on its own.

Not really, Liz. Kleinfelters has rendered a lot of us with retardation and is kind of a mirror image to Down's Syndrome (XYY). But a few of us have refused to lower our expectations in life.

Its because they do lesser work than Men. & Men loves & care for women -
Spite.

because we know where the food is kept? -
Both the man and woman marry each other for the fulfillment of a dream and embody that dream in another. But over the years, the "dream's dream" emerges. Which is more able to do battle in the arena of dreams when illusions are shattered? More likely, the woman is. She has more dreams built up and even more desperation than the man. And she has an inner strength the man doesn't typically have. So the man, being psychically shattered turns to the buddies, the pool hall, or something more destructive and the war between husband and wife is on in earnest. The woman generally draws from what is usually a larger mythical storehouse to simply find dreams.

My hubby doesn't go to the doctor so he needs me to drag his sorry butt into the doctor every now and then. When we moved to PA, he came out first and got very sick (I'll spare you the graphic details), dimissed it as normal sickness and didn't go to the doctor. I finally came out 1 week later and dragged him straight to the doctor who sent him straight to the hospital. It was food poisoing. He was severely dehydrated and he'd lost 20% of his weight already. Ended up staying there for 3 weeks and out of work for 2 months. If he was single and didn't have me, he'd be dead by another week. And that's why women live longer than men!

My boyfriend had been denied the right medication one year and went into a seizure. I did the first aid procedures and got him into the EMS. He saw the billing and told me never to call paramedics again. That does say something, ya know?
-
oh, my....

Interesting list there. But my boyfriend has another girl too. She's great.

man is not afraid to doctors, they are afraid to doctor's bill hehe

you are funny -
you are funny

Women probably live longer than men because they make more effort to take care of themselves (on the whole), they are bombarded with info that they have to keep slim, watch what they eat, exercise etc, get regular check ups and so on.
Men (not all I know) on the other hand are happy to let themselves go to seed, ignore health advice and rely on women to fetch and carry for them. Am sure a lot die early from inactivity (evidence in abundance from all the pot bellies! -

Oops, sorry, didn't mean to repeat it three times!

I think one of the biggest factors is stress. Especially stress on the workplace. I don't let stuff bother me too much especially at work. Not worth it. I would say that out of my coworkers there are more men that stress out then the women. It's not even a job that should be that stressful! If you get that stressed driving a bus or dealing with difficult passengers it is time to get another job instead of complain to all your coworkers and stress out about it!!-
I do agree that men are more affected by stress; especially at work, because of their tendency to keep problems by themselves It is also one of the reason why men are more prone to cardiovascular diseases
-
Hmm... while I do agree that men probably hold the stress in much more than women, I don't think men are under more stress than women. Most working women, particularly, have the same stress levels at work as the men do, but then come home and have additional stress of taking care of the family. Now, I'm not saying some men don't pitch in and do their share, but men tend not to actually stress about making dinner on time, getting laundry done, getting the kids all bathed, brushed and into bed, etc. I think, for a lot of women, the stress just doesn't actually let up.
As far as why women live longer, I do think what a lot of people say about women being more apt to go to the dr if there's something wrong is true. Women learn early on to visit the dr at least once a year for their gyno check-up, and as such, we tend to be more inclined to go if needed. Again, generally speaking.

Here is my thought...
You are correct as to where and what the "general rules" are...
But - since Tony was the first person to comment on this thread...
If it is OK with him - it should be OK with us...
I know - I know - I know - rules are rules - and if there is a big bad rule-breaker it is me... but Hey - I do "gotta" be me! -

Your lifespan man or woman simply depends on how you take care of your body.
I have seen many people of both sexes come and go in my lifetime.
Guys are more prone to abuse their bodies from poor diet, lack of exercise, and stress.
Each and every one of theses you have the power to control if you choose to.-
Men do not seem to own sole right to that stupidity anymore - You have come a long way baby!

Could be genetics and environmental factors. -
Chocolate - women can always live without men but not without chocolate. -
Come on!! You all know the real reason, girls.
