How is it better for a man to be killed by another man, rather than by
a woman ? Your statement implies this.

And, such choices are the reason that women, as a class, earn less $$
than do men, as a class. See Warren Farrell " Why Men Earn More ", 2005.

Wrong. But, thanks for showing that you don't know what you're talking
about.
At the time that women, stastically, have their first cardiac event,
most men have been dead for several years. Yet, women's health care
gets far more funding, nonetheless.
How many " runs for prostate cancer " have you seen Teevee ads for ?
As many men die from prostate cancer as do women die from breast cancer.
But, the latter gets ten times the health research funding that the
former gets.

And, thats why women live longer. There is simply no more telling metric
than who lives and who dies, and when each does. To claim that " Men
run the world so that women can out live them " is to claim total
brain rot.
