American Women are living to age 100
A growing number of Americans are living to age 100. Here's a look at some of the characteristics of people who live to age 100:
It is overwhelmingly women who live to age 100. In 2010, 82.8 percent of centenarians were female. For every 100 females age 100 or older, there are only 20.7 males the same age. Females also make up 61.9 percent of those in their 80s and 72.2 percent of people in their 90s.
Why do you think Women live longer than men? Some say women take the best part of the food before the man eats...others say women are more social...some say women tend to take life easier....yet some others say the women cause their men to die...what do you say?
