Just came across this.
'Why Life Insurers Ask About Gender
Life insurers ask about gender because of the correlation between gender and mortality. Being assigned to the male or female sex at birth is related to how long we live. As a large, international 2019 study in the journalClinical Chemistrypoints out, "Male life expectancy is lower than female life expectancy in all countries."1 This difference began to show up after 1880; by the middle of the 20th century, mortality of those older than 45 became twice as high for men than for women, due to "men's greater vulnerability to cardiovascular disease and differential uptake of smoking." With women smoking more, the difference decreased, but still exists. There are significant differences in the rates between countries and at different times, but in almost all cases in modern times, females live longer.'
So you have to ask yourself why medical professionals at births, or family etc for babies born without medical help, are assigning any babies male and condemning them to a shorter life? That's horrific.
