[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women outlive men by 10 years. The most unfair situation of all and they are still whining about every much smaller discomfort. Men bless their hearts don’t spill their grievances 24-7 like women. Thank God for the stoic character of our male population. They are hero’s [/quote] Until there is equality in lifespan I don’t want to waste my limited time listening to the caterwauling of miserable feminists.[/quote] Men take more dumb risks, more likely to abuse their bodies with drugs/alcohol/bad food/tobacco, more likely to own guns and be a victim of gun violence, and are less likely to see a doctor regularly. Of course they have a much shorter life span; men make so many worse choices for themselves compared to women. I have two young boys. My biggest worry is that they will make impulsive dumb choices while young that ruins their future. -married high-income man who is trying to make better choices and exercise self-discipline [/quote] Then that needs to be addressed with massive spending on public health initiatives to spearhead an attack against all of the unhealthy habits men have in order to increase their lifespan and close the gender death gap. Women get tons and tons and tons of more healthcare spending already. There is absolutely a gender bias in money spent on women’s health vs men’s health issues. [/quote] No. From a 2021 study Gender Disparity in the Funding of Diseases by the U.S. National Institutes of Health Results: We find that in nearly three-quarters of the cases where a disease afflicts primarily one gender, the funding pattern favors males, in that either the disease affects more women and is underfunded (with respect to burden), or the disease affects more men and is overfunded. Moreover, the disparity between actual funding and that which is commensurate with burden is nearly twice as large for diseases that favor males versus those that favor females. A chi-square test yields a p-value of 0.015, suggesting that our conclusions are representative of the full NIH disease portfolio.[/quote] You’re and absolute moron. You haven’t even looked at lifetime expenditures by gender. Women overwhelmingly consume more healthcare dollars than men per head: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10718692/ Results: Women had significantly lower self-reported health status and lower mean education and income than men. Women had a significantly higher mean number of visits to their primary care clinic and diagnostic services than men. Mean charges for primary care, specialty care, emergency treatment, diagnostic services, and annual total charges were all significantly higher for women than men; however, there were no differences for mean hospitalizations or hospital charges. [b]After controlling for health status, sociodemographics, and clinic assignment, women still had higher medical charges for all categories of charges except hospitalizations.[/b] Conclusions: Women have higher medical care service utilization and higher associated charges than men. Although the appropriateness of these differences was not determined, these findings have implications for health care. [/quote]
