Lifespan gap narrows as men live longer

Men's Health Rand T. writes "New findings by Britain's Continuous Mortality Investigation Bureau show that the gender lifespan gap is narrowing, and men may outlive women by the end of the century. These findings cast doubt on the cherished belief of women's greater lifespan being a biological advantage. The gender lifespan gap, being highly correlated with environmental factors, shows the new focus on men's health brought about by the men's movement is justified and should continue. Two articles about the new data: here and here"

Well, well, the feminists wanted to have all of those things that the privileged patriarchy has, eh femi? Well it looks like your finding out that the #1 rule for the male beast is: GET TOUGH OR DIE! What the heck where you pheminuts thinking when you thought that men had such a great big bunch of advantages over women. We have been taking the assault of all the forces of nature for millennia, because we love you, protect you and give everything to see you and our children are well.

You doubted that, and now you are learning the reality of what it is to be a man living in a hostile world. ... now a sexist and hostile, world, where many men no longer have the love and encouragement of a supportive family to encourage them. FEMINIST LIES MAKE BAD LAWS.

We don't subscribe to the feminist model for men. Why would we want to use that model for men, when it doesn't even work for women?

WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER. THE EASIEST WAY IS HARD ENOUGH!

After working 35 years, and rising through the ranks I can say that. Has anyone every read studies like those referenced by Dr. Farrell referring to the statistics about those men and those women who have gotten up every day for 30 to 40 years STRAIGHT, and drug their tired butts to a job? Guess which sex puts in the long hours. Guess which sex works for 30 to 40 years straight, then dies early. Be sure to include that in that glass ceiling femibabble the next time that Pheminut myth is mentioned.

Men comprise 94% of work place deaths according to the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (Federal Gov't.)

Welcome to the Occupational Death ceiling and all the other reasons men die in greater numbers. I bet you Pheminuts didn't see that one coming, eh? At least now that precious women are dying in numbers closer to those for men, things will improve for men. ...unless we get the same sexist treatment in that area like we've gotten everywhere else.

Let Free Men Ring,
Ray

I'm fond of saying to the pheminuts who are tasting the other edge of the knife on many things:

Brave New World, eh?

This is good news that the mortality rate gap is narrowing.

However, the gap between what is spent on medical research for female and male specific disease is still way to much in favor of the female. This needs to be changed for the better.

Inform your congressperson to support the Men's Health Act for 2003 that is presently before Congress. It is a small step but it is a start.
