When a man starts living with a woman, his life automatically shortens down!

Men are more likely to smoke, work more etc. Our bazars are full of chimney smokers.

Cultural upbringing, men are more socially active, get more exposed to surroundings thus more prone to diseases. Also, studies show that men are less likely to go see a doctor whenever they fell ill.
Usually men don't take care of the body as much as women does. All these factors contribute to shorter life expectancy.

Humble brag... but from what I'm learnt from studying medicine... lots of sex and sleep has relation with men living longer than average expected lifespan... so yeah make love and love your bed and also excercise regularly and respect your body and you'll live long.

The West meaning Europe? I live in Europe and know. I have been to Morocco, Bahrain, Dubai, Turkey etc etc. The bazars in BD are full of chain smokers its absolutely disgusting especially those Derby cigs.

To the hospitals I have been to in BD (say Apollo or Square & Noorjahan in Sylhet) all of the cancer sufferers were either Lung cancer or Skin cancer as the most common types.
