muawiyah is misinformed and parroting pro-abortion nostrums about the danger of childbirth and also incorrect information about age of marriage and first birth.

If the death rate of women was higher than men, Nature (or Nature’s God) wouldn’t have resulted in the 105/100 ratio. The fact that the natural biological ratio is weighted towards men is indicative of who has the higher death rate through the ages.

Hunting is more dangerous than gathering. The most dangerous agricultural jobs were done by men, not women. Farming is still in the top five for occupational deaths.

Men also drink more, engage in more risk taking behaviors, gambling, fighting, racing, etc.

The biologic imbalance relates to "at birth" ~ by the time you get to puberty, it's different.

As far as any of that being pro-abortion, it's not. Population statistics can certainly be misused to advocate for abortion, but you can use them to advocate for anything you want ~ like selling more bread, selling less meat, using fats, consuming sardines ~ you name it.

BTW, the conception ratios are exactly on the button.

Regarding early childbirth, that's always been a problem ~ everybody knows it. It's not an argument for abortion but rather a warning to the pedophiles to leave the young girls alone or you will be executed by the village elders faster than you can believe.

At the same time girls brought up under the rigors of heavy farm labor reach menses later ~ for what that's worth.

Your reference backward from lifestyle to birth ratios is BS. They are not linked and the higher level here is not universal. The world average is a 1:1 ratio ~ there are countries with more girls born than boys.

The adult ratio reflects conditions of life for each sex, on the average.

Now the relationship between Conservatives and Liberals is definitely skewed by actions taken at or before birth. Liberals kill their own kids at such a high rate that Conservatism in America is now demonstrably something that provides a family a biological advantage.
