Less stress, less work, less wear on their bodies...

True. It's the only way to have some time alone, it's what keeps us hanging in there ; )
Plus, I think that men stress too much about aging. There are no 50 year old women I know that would chase after a 20 year old guy and want more kids. After 40, I think women network better and support each other more.

From an evolutionary-type point of view:
Women are designed to raise the children while men are designed to pass on their genes. Once men reach the age where they can no longer pass on their genes effectively (40s or 50s) they no longer serve any genetic purpose. Women, however, are the caretakers of the children, which they can do even into grandmother-hood. Grandmothers can also help take care of new mothers. Old women are more useful.
(I hope no one gets insulted by this. This is just how we evolved. We didn't used to live much older than our 30s or 40s.)

It is true and I think it's because women's bodies are more complex then men, so it takes longer for them to break down, or fall apart. So with that theory in mind it would make more sense why men would die first, because we are less complex.

Why yes it's true. Women do live longer than men.

Because they are wierd thats why. And yes they do because they are wierd. Maybe because one was created to take away the lonelyness of other. There has to be some unknown reasons that our mind might "realize" as we go thru life. Just yesterday I realized I'll die. Yeah I never heard anything about dieing in American Goverment. I donno if there is something about death in bill of rights. Realizing something can be biggg.

YES. Because men get tired of answering womens foolish questions and look forward to a couple years of peace before you show up and tell us how we are screwing up the afterlife.

Because women know how to deal with their feelings better than men. Stifled, undealt with feelings turn into cancer.
