Chimps live up to 60 years in captivity, 35 to 40 in the wild. Bonobos live about 50 years in captivity, and presumably less in the wild.

| 1 | Why Do Men Die Younger Than Women?I disagree. Older dudes with a lot of resources getting it on with young women are believed to be the genetic basis for humanity's long lifespan compared to other apes. As it so happens, that genetic basis doesn't live on the Y chromosome. So both men and women live longer. But because of other physical factors, that advantage appears to result in longer actual lifespans in women than men.

| 1 | Why Do Men Die Younger Than Women?Well, aside from all the cultural things, the fact is men and women are physically different. For one thing, estrogen seems to help with immune response in the elderly. For another, men are bigger, and things like arteries don't scale well. A man has all these extra pounds of body mass engaging in cellular metabolism and creating a build-up of cholestorols that cannot be broken down, and this creates dangerous blockages faster in a bigger person.

They both seek to increase government intervention to help close the "wage gap" between men and womenSince social workers' pay (and teachers' pay) is set ultimately by the voters, I support these pay raises when I can. Part of the decline of male teachers is the anti-male atmosphere in schools and another part of it is that it pays so poorly that it interferes with a man's ability to attract a wife or meet her expectations. It is less glamorous to men than it was because of the descending pay and decreasing air of respectability. Also, lower pay attracts less qualified candidates.
