Women are more likely to attempt suicide, although more men actually succeed at it. Marriage increases the risk of depression for women, and decreases it for men. By age 21, there are 68 male deaths for every 32 female deaths. And finally, by age 65, there are 7 surviving men for every 10 women. Women outlive men in nearly every corner of the globe and specifically in the US by more than 7 years.
Men are more violent by nature than women.
In 1987 men committed seven times more homicides and aggravated assaults than women. Men also caused two thirds of all road accidents. Numerous studies have shown that aggressive behaviour is closely linked with high testosterone levels. Men have higher levels than women. This level peaks when men are young adults, which is also when they commit the most crimes and get in the most accidents.
