In other words, why men die younger than women? It is because men are afraid of getting old and helpless and so they prefer to die before that happens? Perhaps they fear to be left alone by their women and so decided to the leaving first Many explanations are given for the fact that men die earlier than women Men are stronger physically, yet women can hang on longer to life Both men and women emotional creatures but women are not afraid or ashamed to cry while men refuse to so They are afraid of being thought “soft” Some men , when they are upset, play loud music or dig in the garden to relieve their feelings Many men like an orderly life so that they bury themselves in their work or want a wife with some children or long to take part in wars where there is a definite chain of command There is a leader to give orders and a known enemy to fight against and defeat All these make men feel they live in a rational world So the majority of men like a rational world Rationality is fine but it does not include everything that makes life joyful and fun or even messy and frustrating When a man refuses to cry he is refusing to accept that his emotions are part of him Of course some men not fellow this pattern Bob Hawke is capable of crying in public whereas Margaret Thatcher is probably of crying at any time We need to cry because that shows our ability to suffer If we not suffer we are not really alive at all Suffering can be creative or destructive If we can all learn to cry and laugh and shout and dance openly, we are living creatively and adding something to the human race We often say men suffer more from stress and therefore they die early Are we not saying in another way that they not know how to suffer in the right way- with tears and laughter instead of silence- and so they are miserable and just give up?
