According to a story from Reuters and posted on Yahoo News, women are more likely to live past 100 than men. Just 2 out of 10 Americans that live past the century mark are males.
The data was collected during the 2010 census and included information about those that make it past 100 are more likely to be white city-dwellers in the Northeast and Midwest. I don’t know if that’s a good thing. From my perspective, living in a big city is not living.
Now, so far as women living longer than men. This has been the case forever. I don’t know if Adam died before Eve, but I suspect he did.
Women living longer than men is not news. I knew that and I know why men die first.
They want to.
