In most countries there has been a strong trend for people to live longer over the past 50 years. But in the case of white Americans aged 45-54, mortality appears to have gone the other way.

>>Long story short is that white American men between 45 and 55 are dying faster than before, but only because now most of them are closer to 55 than to 45. It’s a mathematical artifact, there is no real story here.<<
So it is MATH’s fault!
I say we march on Washington to change math to match our political outlook!!!
The Million Man March for Math! Anti-Formulas and Arithmetic (ANTIFA)! Regression is Mean! Equations solve NOTHING! Quadsexuals for Quadratics!
Every day there is no wall, I die a little inside
I wonder if they are married ?
If so, they die because they want to.
Math is a white construct used to oppress colored people!
bkmk
“I wonder if they are married”?
Happily married or just plain married? Married to somebody you would die for, and they for you...or just “married”?

I gather you are not joking, was married 18 years and divorced last year, I have not been this happy in 15 years, life is great, I look and feel 10 years younger.
I imagine you are joking but statistically married men live longer than single.

Well, I’m in that age group and I’m not dying anytime soo
it only seems longer.

My Doctor told me there was a very detailed study and the reason this is true is...
nagging.
Guys, let’s face it. Most of us will only go to the doctor at the point of a gun. Even if our leg is dangling on a single stand of skin, we figure an ace bandage and a beer will do.
When we are sick we man up with NyQuil and Jack Daniels. Preventative trips to the doc? Fuhgetaboutit!
So, our women (and statistically it is married women who do this) take us by the ear and march is to the doc, who then ca do the medicine thing that makes us better.
Had it not been for my wife I would have ignored this mole on my shoulder until God knows when. She saw and noticed it was changing. She marched me to the doctor and after a few specialists it turned out to be a melanoma that, thank God, was completely removed. It was about 9 cm and I have an 8 inch scar. Had it grown more who knows how much of my upper torso would have to be removed — if operating was even a possibility.
So, yeah it all makes sense.

This is part of the media need to dispute any idea which supports conservative candidates. So white men are not dying earlier, it’s women. But they are dying from opioids, also a Trump issue.
There are two times I had to long term fight to get my husband to the doctor (usually I leave him alone, honest)
Once it turned out he had acute leukemia which turned into months of chemo and a bone marrow transplant. He was days from death.
The other time he had pneumonia. As a man with a compromised immune system and badly compromised innards it probably would have killed him.
So yes I have saved his life twice in my opinion, giving God the ultimate glory of course.
If he had lived alone he’d have stayed put and probably died, both times.

God usually acts through people. Take credit where credit is due. God gets His glory of course but you played no small part :)
Great example of what I was saying :) :)
Wow! I had an 11 mm one and was crapping myself.
Its because they want to outlast her and finally have the last word and some peace in the house.
