    Women have longer life expectancy than men because it is biologically supported. Firstly, women engage less in behaviors that are bad for health than men such as excess smoking and drinking. In addition to that, women currently better profit from advanced health care and better living conditions such as regular medical check-ups.

    Moreover, from the genetics perspective, when mutation occurs of one gene of the X chromosome, women have another X chromosome for compensation which increases their resistance to biological aging. Lastly, men participate in activities/works especially those that utilize more muscles and energy that result into their worn out state faster than compared to women.
