In this video we discuss why women live longer than men. Obviously this is the case because women are far superior. They are smarter, stronger, and better looking? No just kidding, but if we look at the numbers, than indeed women live averagely 4-7 years longer.

The evidence to answer this question is limited and we only have partial answers.
However, we know that biological, behavioral and environmental factors all contribute to the fact that women live longer than men. However, we we don’t know exactly how strong the relative contribution of each of these factors is.

- Biological: Chromosomes and Hormones
- Behavioral: Life-style (Smoking, Alcohol, drugs), Risk taking
- Environmental: physical work, working conditions

In the video I explain why and how each of these factors contributes to female longevity.
