The forgotten sex: why is men's health ignored by policy makers? British men have died at a younger age than British women since at least the time of Queen Victoria’s accession and they will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

In both the UK and globally, there is currently a four-year difference in life expectancy between the sexes. The Daily Telegraph
