4 reasons why men live shorter lives than women

Why do men have shorter life spans than women? This cannot be explained from a medical perspective alone. Finally, sociologists found the answer through social surveys.

First, men don't shed tears easily.

"Men don't shed tears easily" and "Women love to cry". Women's tears make people sympathize, while men's tears make people disgusted. When men cry, they are either a waste or a piece of trash, so men dare not cry.

Everyone will suffer a lot of disappointments in their life. Everyone may have emotional reactions due to loss and sadness. Crying is a natural instinct of human beings and a way for human beings to vent their inner feelings. However, the real society has artificially deprived men of the right to cry, making them lack a way to dispel their inner depression. Even if they are sad, they have to swallow their tears.

Little do they know that this will inevitably cause a psychological burden on men because they cannot relieve their depression, which will naturally affect their health over time.

Second, men don’t like to talk.

In order to maintain their masculine image and win in competition, men always remain highly vigilant and cautious in their interactions with others. They find it difficult to be open and honest, for fear of exposing their shortcomings and weaknesses and becoming closed and lonely.

If you don't like to talk about your suffering, you will "swallow it with all your might."

I have a patient, in his early 40s, a wealthy man, who runs a real estate company, a billionaire, a southerner, thin and small. He said, "Doctor Hong, don't look at me because I am thin and small, I am very strong. Real estate is not easy to do, and I have suffered a lot of hardships and grievances! But I appear to be calm. I told my wife, don't worry, you don't have to worry about anything, I will hold up the sky if it falls." Now he has a myocardial infarction.

Third, men don’t go to see a doctor when they are sick.

The National Bureau of Statistics of China has a number that for the same disease, men go to see a doctor 40% less than women. Men drag their feet, bear it, and endure it. When they are really sick, they go to the hospital. When they go there, they find that it is too late. There was a rich man who suddenly had chest pain during a company board meeting. It hurt so much, but he didn't say anything and endured it. When he couldn't bear it anymore, he secretly massaged it with his hands, but it still hurt. He beat his chest, but it still didn't work, so he drank hot water... In the end, it got worse and worse, and he broke out in cold sweats and his face turned pale. Others saw that something was wrong, and three people sent him to the hospital. After doing an electrocardiogram, it was myocardial infarction. The injection cost 15,000 yuan. It was too late and there was no way to save him.

Article 4: Men have families but don’t like to go back home

For many men today, going home right after get off work seems like a sign of incompetence, so many of them would rather hang out after work and spend the night in bars.

Staying up late often and lack of sleep will affect your health.
