909 views

Hey! I’m wonderin that how does the population ratio is still more or less %50-50 (%49.5 female vs %50.5 male) even that the knowledge we know;

1- Men is being killed, and killed in past in wars.

2- Men is working on heavy-duty jobs that killed men.

3- We also know that the expected life span of a female is higher than men.

​

So, there should be some imbalances, right?

Men dies in wars, in dangeroues jobs and has less life time.

​

So, how does the ratio keep its balance?

Women died in childbirth. Historically. And women had like, tons of children, so the chances were high. Women were also murdered a lot, and still are. Also, natural causes. And the same causes as men like famine and disease.
