Reply to comment by cutelyaware in TIL that on average women live five years longer than men, and that by age 85 around 67% of the population is female in the US. by Successful-Depth-235
Its partly related to health, but not the way you think. Men smoke, drink and overeat more on average.
But there are many other factors such as the dangerous jobs, xy vs xx chromosome, men dying from suicides way more, etc ... That needs to be taken into account.
