Hey, weren't we all supposed to live longer than our parents?
  • Gee, there seems to be an elephant in the room

    Life expectancy for men is, and has always been, greater than for women. On average, an American woman lives 7 years longer than a man -- that's about 10%. If the situation were reversed, there'd be Congressional hearings, protests, commercials. You'd have the Almighty Eve Ensler writing a play about it. But, as usual, since it's men who are taking the hit here, who cares? You people are such incredible hypocrites. Sometimes reading this site is like reading The Onion -- you know -- "World Comes to An End -- Women Suffer Most."
