The mileage may not matter if it has a very good service history. However, it will burn more engine oil.

Nigeria lost because of the English fans. The shout was much and Nigerian players became tensed. It was obvious before and after Alozie played and missed hers.

Oga go and apologize to him. Even though he would wish you back, he would not apologize because African men have ego. So save him the situation and apologize to him. The more time you waste, the more complicated it becomes.

This match has confirmed that Odoi will not improve. Chelsea should just sell him.

You are worrying over nothing. Don't just create discrepancies for yourself. Allow everything to tally till you finish your service.

Why are Yorubas too jealous?

The better side won. They played like a fox.

The male disadvantage

The fact that boys are more susceptible than girls to a range of health conditions is often summarized as the “male disadvantage”. This is not restricted to childhood: the female advantage carries into adulthood. It’s part of the reason why women tend to live longer than men.

The leading explanations for the “male disadvantage” lie in the biological differences between the sexes. More specifically, differences in maturity, sex chromosomes, and hormones.

In circumstances where both sexes are treated equally, we would therefore expect infant and child mortality rates to be slightly higher for boys.

Boys are at higher risk of infectious diseases

Boys are also at higher risk of infectious diseases such as syphilis, malaria, respiratory infections, tetanus and diarrheal diseases. This is more generally true for a broad range of infections, spanning person-to-person, vector-borne, blood-borne, and food and water borne diseases.

We see this clearly when we compare mortality rates for boys and girls in the earlier chart. But why are boys more susceptible to infection?

Overall, boys have weaker immune systems. There are two key hypotheses for why.

The Y-chromosome in boys increases their vulnerability. Biologically, males and females are differentiated by chromosomes: females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males one X and one Y chromosome (XY). Having two X chromosomes means that the newborn has a stronger immune system because X chromosomes contain a larger number of immune-related genes. This means that, since females have two X chromosomes, they have a stronger immune response; boys on the other hand, are more vulnerable to X-linked infections.

This makes males more vulnerable to many infectious diseases. They are also more susceptible to specific genetic diseases where the defective genes are carried on either the X or Y chromosomes; this is because boys have only one X chromosome so a single recessive gene on that X chromosome results in the disease.

But the stronger immune response of females comes with a cost. It’s the reason why women are more susceptible to autoimmune disorders such as HIV/AIDS.

Sex hormones may be another key reason for weaker immune systems in males. Males have much higher amounts of testosterone which seem to inhibit two major parts of the immune system – B and T-lymphocytes.

Estrogen, on the other hand, acts as an effective regulator of this. Overall, male hormones weaken the immune system relative to females.

Boys are at higher risk of birth complications

From comparison of mortality rates in infant boys and girls, it becomes clear that boys are at higher risk of complications in the first few days of life: preterm births, asphyxia, birth defects and heart anomalies. But why?

First of all, boys are more likely to be born prematurely: the share of boys born before full-term pregnancy is higher than for girls. This occurs naturally, but is exacerbated by the rate of induced preterm births. Boys tend to have a higher birth weight than girls – which can increase the risk of waiting to term to deliver – meaning that more boys are induced before the end of the pregnancy term. The chart above shows that more boys die from preterm births. The fact that preterm births are more common for boys contributes to this.

Although boys are, on average, heavier than girls at birth, they are less physiologically mature at birth. This means they are at higher risk of having delayed physiological function (such as lung function) and adverse neurological outcomes. For example, poorer lung function in newborn boys has been shown for both term and preterm infants. Studies have suggested that even in the case of straightforward pregnancies, lung maturation in boys lags that of girls by approximately one week. These differences in maturity at birth are not restricted to lung function.

The reason for this difference has been an important question for decades – the answer is still not clear. But there are some leading hypotheses: surfactant production for lung function has been observed earlier in female fetuses, leading to improved airway flow in the lungs; estrogen has been shown to affect lung development positively in females; males, on average, have a higher birthweight meaning they may trade-off increased size for functional development; and the uterus may be less hospitable to male fetuses – the introduction of a Y chromosome in females can create and immunoreactive response to the central nervous system.

This, combined with a higher risk of premature birth may explain why boys have higher rates of asphyxia, respiratory infections and birth may explain why boys have higher rates of asphyxia, respiratory infections and birth defects.

Important Notes

(1) The sex ratio at birth is not equal: in every country births are male-biased. There are biological reasons why there are slightly more boys born every year than girls. The ‘natural’ sex ratio at birth is around 105 boys per 100 girls (ranging from around 103 to 107 boys).

(2) In some countries, the sex ratio at birth is much more skewed than would occur naturally. Today and in the recent past, this is particularly common across Asia and North Africa. Here there is clear evidence of gender selection through prenatal sex determination and selective abortion.

(3) In countries where there is a clear son preference, the sex ratio at birth becomes increasingly skewed with birth order (the third or fourth born children are more likely to be boys than the first or second child).

(4) In nearly every country, boys are more likely to die in childhood than girls. There are biological reasons for this: boys are more susceptible to birth complications and infectious diseases.

(5) In countries where there is strong son preference, mortality rates for girls are higher than would be expected: this can occur either through direct infanticide, but also through neglect and unequal treatment.

(6) The sex ratio tends to decrease over the life course (from becoming male-biased to female-biased). This is because women tend to live longer than men.

(7) It’s estimated that today there are over 130 million ‘missing women’ in the world as a result of selective abortion and excess female deaths.

( The banning of sex determination scanning and gender-selective abortion may have limited the increase in sex ratio at birth in some countries, but did not fully address the problem.

(9) Development can have opposing impacts on sex ratio: there is evidence that the son preference declines with education, but this often goes hand-in-hand with declining fertility rates and increased access to selective technologies (which can increase the sex ratio).

Really??

What do you mean? Why would you call someone such a name?

Sadly you erroneously believe that MAN=HUSBAND......

All men are not HUSBANDS but all HUSBANDS are men.

When you understand this, you will rest and move on with your life.

Before you argue, pls find the meaning of HUSBAND.... then you will know that NOT everyone qualifies

Go and open any primary 5 English textbook. Read and master comprehension passages. I think you need that.

There is a woman for every man. If you decide not to marry, you are denying that woman meant for you a good husband.

My brother you gather point

These are some of the reasons why husbands are scarce in Nigeria. Men kill themselves in cult wars. Most men that travel abroad end up marrying foreigners. Men are the ones that mostly go to prison. SARS killed many men. For the few available men that have survived all these, only a fraction of them can afford the exorbitant marriage rites expected of them.
