Sexuality Studies Confirm What Society Already Knows - Page 2
Although reading the Bible or watching National Graphic Television will provide similar information, CosmosMagazine.com reported almost the exact same conclusions in their May 11, 2006 article entitled, “Women Have Always Outlived Men.”
The difference between the woman’s lifespan and her early exit from the sexual scene has been noted since the 18th century, according to Daniel J. Kruger, a research scientist in the U-M School of Public Health and the Institute for Social Research.
"This whole pattern is a result of sexual selection and the roles that males and females play in reproduction," Kruger told CosmoMagazine, "Females generally invest more in offspring than males and are more limited in offspring quantity, thus males typically compete with each other to attract and retain female partners."
According to Lindau, their research only opens new doors to further studies, for instance, in how to make older women more satisfied in their sexual experiences. She indicated advancements have improved male erectile dysfunction over the years.
Hippel’s study showed that increased risk taking in attracting a female mate also contributes to men’s early mortality.
