Our God is a merciful God. He gives demons enough time to repent from their evil ways.
No. God doesn't reason shallow like you.
Men die young cos of pressure on them. Especially those running around different women.

. 1. Only God knows when a man or woman will die. The bible says nobody can add one cubitvro his life span. Many men suffer today yet they live long. Many men enjoy today yet they don't live long. We can do our best but God sees everything.(Awa eda le se tiwa,gbogbo e lo ye Olorun.2. Traditionally men want their wives to outlive men. But it may not be so for God knows who will die first. 3Men takes more risk than women and they expose thier lives to danger everyday 4.The occupation of some men expose their lives to death like palmwine tapping 2,driving 3night gaurds etc 5 . Men don't always have time to pay attention to their health. 6 Men think about a lot of things in their lives food ,housing , protection etc The pressure makes them develop high BP Diabetes etc 7 Some men are maltreated by their wives and fully abandoned which leads to their untimely death. Given all these factors and many others women usually live longer than men.

The major reason is very simple...
Sedentary lifestyle
As men get older they become less active as someone else does most things for them that someone else most times is their wife! The woman.
The women are still active because they are still taking care of the home, activities like cooking, going to the market keeping the house clean washing among others. Adds more years to

An active man on the other hand will live as long.

An example is the old men in the village who still farm, men who are still engaged in exercises.

In summary exercises are good
Washing car, sweeping, mopping, cooking, going for walks and stretching are light and good

I think it's mostly due to health issues. Men tend to be ignorant and nonchalant about their health.

I think women also go through these. Many women still have to earn income. . . hawk in markets, stay in shops, drive uber, spend long hours catering for parties and plan events. Women also farm and endure lots of domestic jobs like house cleaning and providing laundary services from home to home. I personally know of a woman who fell from okada on her way to providing home-service-manicure/pedicure service and fractured her legs. she was bed-ridden for over a year with 2 small children. Earning a living comes with many risks(enviromental and emotional).

The stress of SEXUAL HARRASMENT/ASSUALT is more real for women than men.

Stress is stress. Nothing to do with gender.
If a man is going through stress in a relationship or marriage, is HE THE ONLY ONE FEELING OR CARRYING IT? undecided
Even the children suffer it too. Don't make it feel like ONLY A MAN CAN FEEL STRESS.
When a woman's husband does not come home late at night, who worries? undecided

Is it not a woman that lost her life pursuing a man(husband o) and his side-chick late last year? undecided
The other one (gospel singer and all)died in the hands of her 'religious' husband who was taking all her money. All because she wanted to stay married?
What of the one did left school at a young age and followed one man against all odds, had five children and finally set herself on fire in a do-or-die marriage chasing after a man that will not stay home and fulfull his matrimonial obligations?

All dat no be MAJOR stress? undecided

Why the back and forth?.... going back to Biblical times to support that men lived longggg lives .... did they ever say how long the women lived?... or we just assume they couldn't have lived longer? We don't know so this shouldn't be used as a reference. In modern times we have records of dates of birth and dates of death .... the oldest people alive... are they predominantly males or females?.... that should tell us something about who is built to live longer. One of my customers is 99 years old... now uses a walker... fairly good sight.... no spectacles ... brain full of oil ... mentally sharp... one of quite a few in sight of 100 ..... allll female. If we check ... the oldest people we know are mainly female. From trends... I believe the gap is going to get wider since men ... already behind... are more involved in doing things to shorten our lifespan ... as in our choice of destructive lifestyle and habits.

Most men take more risks than women and bear more losses than women.

The resultant stresses and anxiety is why most men don't last very long like women.

At a minimum 2 things

Firstly biological estrogen which is a female hormone has a protective effect over the heart compared to testosterone. Testosterone leads men to put their lives more at risk than women. It’s also what makes men to be daring and leaders. Ur heart is more most important organ of it stops working it’s game over. Women have a protective hormone over the heart.

2ndly look at the women in your lives and she how they sleep. Women sleep like babies. They don’t like stress at all. Compare the way your father sleep compared to your mother. Women go to bed early and sleep deeper I find. Sleeping good is very good for your health.

I like the whole suggestions and opinions so far,but that's not the main reason (s).
Men should stop masturbation from Today,it takes absolutely 21 days for a man to rebuild himself after a single ejaculation.

Men,listen and listen attentively,if you want to last long here on mother earth,reduce the amount of sex or sex related stuffs like masturbation you give consent to in a month,
God bless every man out there🙏🙏🙏💪💪

This is like saying, a tree should stop letting it ripe fruit fall or shedding it leaf, because it takes almost a year to regenerate.

cheesy grin cheesy grin cheesy grin

. . . .Problems noted. Women do not nag for nothing you know. Show me an unhappy woman. . . that does not nag?
Solutions please. I am tired of seeing my fellow grand-mas as single-widows without their husbands.
They did not have smelly vaginas or indulge in exessive nagging sessions that could not be handled. . . .in their marriages!
I have 5 friends who lost their husbands last year alone. . . .got me thinking. They were all below 60!

1. Should we give men estrogen and women some testosterone injection to achieve some form of 'homeostasis'?
2. Should men change their sleeping patterns? What is preventing men from going to bed early if not sneaking around at night sexting side chicks? What prevents them from going to bed early?

Social media addiction is just as BAD as any illicit and abused drug. A man should know when to put down his 'toys' and go to sleep!

Been there.. . .done that. But, I will NEVER put any hobby before my personal or professional obligations. . . . NL or any other forum included!

All about being a responsible and well-adjusted adult!

I honestly don’t see any problem with this. Men are protectors in nature so are prone to fight. A flock of eighty hens will always remain safe from predators because its single rooster will put itself in harm’s way. Human males are no different. With the modern world comes ease of life. What was once men dying from wars and silly conflicts is replaced with slumping to death at middle age. More females around means more hands to see children grow to teenage years. Society i.e. the human race benefits in the end.

Disgruntled lifestyle whereby default Nigerian men are expected to bear emotional, physical, financial burden of the family alone is a huge factor we must not ignore! It's not easy!!!
