It's enough to start a new battle of the sexes, but when it comes to needless and untimely deaths, men win hands down.
A 20 year study of the Darwin Awards, an annual review of the most foolish way people have died, found almost 90 per cent were 'won' by males.
...
Of 332 independently verified nominations 14 were ruled out of the analysis because they were shared by male and females - usually overly adventurous couples in compromising positions.

Gee on the side of women we have Pelosi. On the side of men we have Einstein.
I guess we've never really been hungry.
I’ve never seen a man wear a shirt which buttons in the back.
Well, you gotta figure Mr. Pelosi, Mr. Ma’am (feinstein’s husband), Mr. Helen Thomas, all collectively bring down the average IQ of the entire gender. Heck, look at the thousands of men lining up to poke that gutter skank Sandra Fluck. But I’m talking collective IQ here not individual.
That's why liberals redefine the family and kick men out, Then there is no logic in the group, only the needs of big government remains.
I love it. Men and women laugh equally, because they KNOW it is the God’s Honest Truth!
And using Darwin awards as a source of a count of accidental deaths? As noted above, Darwin scores the most amusingly unusual ways to die, not the dumbest. The Darwin awards don’t count women who say, “Ooh, he’s really violent... bad boys are so hot!”
A woman is actually quite easy to understand.
Just remember that as far as she is concerned, everything is always about her.
Well, young boys and men have the capability to do things that seem completely brain dead to non-young boys/men.
Part of it is just a tidal wave of testosterone.
Sometimes it is stupidity.
Sometimes it is just in their makeup.
When I talk to my wife about the things I did as a boy and young man, she appears a little disturbed. She and her female friends never did anything like that.
But most guys understand this completely. We have not only seen it over and over, but lived it ourselves.
Sigh. And a little of that lives on in every guy, no matter how old you get.
That means if you walk into a large room with one hundred people in it, fifty men and fifty women, the dumbest persons will likely be males, but the smartest will probably be males as well.
I think the real reason is it depends on which brain they are using.
Not if you’re married.
It's just a review of the Darwin awards -- and they are a gag.
Damn!, you got me there
How many millions of men have lost lives or body parts doing that? Actually, men, even many smart men, are much more likely to do risky things than women. They're also far more likely to do outright stupid things, but the fact remains many males like to take risks whereas females are more likely to play it safe.
Like my wife who likes to apply the imaginary brakes on the passenger side of car when she sees a car pulling out on the road. The car might be a half mile away, but she'll still brace and put on the imaginary brakes while telling me to slow down. I usually try to calm her down, but she'll never stop worrying about the car that's going to pull out and slam into our car.
I know I have my faults. Sure as heck my hubby has a few, too. We may grrrr! at each other once in a while, but the majority of the time we try to laugh it off.
But we really are more stupid that women. We let them out of the kitchen and have been paying for it every since.
