    Ironic that the thread is about men dying on average younger than women, and the majority of the responses are people completely ignoring that fact and instead just taking an opportunity to negatively stereotype men so they can shit on them collectively.

      Men typically die younger than women across the world. Men tend to be higher risk takers and tend to be less social due to toxic masculinity. The strength of your social network is a huge factor in anyone’s lifespan/quality of life. Then in the west you have the “manosphere” (Joe Rorgan, Andrew Tate etc.) as a very popular men’s place for socializing, which is isolating in it’s own right and drives things that are, once again, already predominant traits in men like going to see doctors less and listening to their advice less.

      These are the things I’m seeing brought up and they’re all real known phenomenon. Where’s the lie?

        "Men die earlier because of toxic masculinity "

        That is victim blaming, plain and simple.

        Apply your logic to rape and women wearing revealing clothing and then tell me that your statement isn’t disgraceful and sickening.
