I’d bet my bottom dollar this meme was not created by a women. I don’t know any who would find it remotely wierd that women live longer than men.
Feel like men should be asking the first question and the second panel be “also men”
It’s just guys joking about the stupid shit we do

It’s a joke. It’s not supposed to mean literally every man is like that lmao
Removed by mod
It is though. People just don’t find it a funny joke in that case.
It’s not a burger if people are not eating.
It’s not a car if people are not driving.
It’s not water if people are not swimming.
Gatekeeping jokes.
Usually the one on the right is presented as being something stupid more than unique and quirky.

This comment section is a bunch of removed that can’t take a joke.
Relatable
This meme doesn’t apply to OP. OP is general observation, not statement of gender norms.

Hes giving an example of how men on average have a tendency to do higher risk activity. It’s a statistical observation, not an encompassing one. OP is giving a specific example where the statistical observation applies. Higher risk could be smoking, drinking, gambling, driving faster, gambling. You could counter me by showing a statistic where men on average do not engage in higher risk activity.

I don’t understand that view. Care to elaborate?
Why shouldn’t people use removed as an insult? Because some handicapped people are removed? Or is it that all handicapped people are removed and removed is just another word for it.
I always thought removed means slow in the head to an degree that makes you not functional anymore. So a removed person wouldn’t be insulted by the word as they would be to removed to comprehend the meaning.

Could you not use a slur please
Removed by mod
Because it is now considered offensive, the word is commonly referred to by the euphemisms “r-word” and “r-slur”.

“Homo” and “removed” are both slurs when used in a derogative way. As an autistic person who also happens to be gay, both words are hurtful when used in the way you use them. Please do better, especially if you’re not part of either minority group. Then it’s just embarassing for you to use words that you really shouldn’t be using.

You can’t make any word a slur. Slurs are specifically words used to show prejudice or to oppress a group of marginalized people. You’re not going to use the n-word, are you? So don’t use words that historically and still is used against intellectually disabled and developmentally disabled people.
Your “deal with it” rhetoric also doesn’t come across as anything else but a lack of good argument. You know you could just be a nice human and have empathy for people who are hurt by the words you’re using instead of being a stubborn asshole.
In my country the phrase “jævla homo” is a slur against gay people. So just because a word has multiple meanings doesn’t mean it isn’t a slur when used in the right context.
And please spare me from your passive-aggressive winking faces. It doesn’t come across as anything else but childish.
None of that is relevant at all; you’re just saying a bunch of patronizing faux rationalist stuff.
Removed by mod
Yes it is. For example if you read the article I’ve linked, you’ll notice it does include the adjective.
But even if anyone is offended, that doesn’t make them wrong. Being unharmed by slurs implies privilege, not rationality.
When your gator disguise fails because you can’t abandon the comfort of your crocs.
Wait, there’s a joke here about crocs
Evolution is crazy
Would this work? Would the alligator realize something is wrong through some sort of alligator uncanny valley? Do we know?
I know birds tend to be dumb as a brick. Many would mistake a rock for an egg, and crocodile/alligator are their brothers from another mother. So…
Not all birds are dumb, you have parrots there, so a bit of a bad comparison
I lived for a year in central FL in a little house on a big lake that had a lagoon in the back yard where a momma gator raised her broods, so I would often come home to find 50 or so little alligators sunning themselves. For fun I would try to sneak up on them; my strategy was to stand stock-still and only move towards them a little bit whenever the wind blew. This actually worked and I could usually get right up next to one of them and then I would reach down and tap it between the eyes, at which point it take off into the lagoon which prompted all the other little gators to take off too.
Great fun, until one day I happened to glance down while doing this and thought “huh, I don’t remember there being a huge log right there.” It was of course the momma gator, about 10’ long not counting the tail. That was the last time I ever tried the sneaking-up shit. FWIW alligators really don’t ever attack adult humans and they never do on land - but that might just be because nobody (but me) is stupid enough to poke their children in the head.
Only one way to find out ;)
The BBC used a fake crocodile to get closeup shots of Nile crocodiles.
That being said, I don’t think this would work, simply because they aren’t going to move like an alligator, and they are doing this stunt with the intent of getting a reaction out of the animal.
I realize this is a meme, but isn’t it mostly linked to how many men died in wars last century, which disproportionately skews the numbers?
It’s a lot of things in reality. Past numbers are skewed by war, but also men are bigger risk takers, less likely to seek medical care, less likely to seek mental healthcare, more likely to isolate, more likely to drink and use drugs (and when they do, a higher average amount), more likely to commit suicide, and the list goes on.
I want to throw in the following explanations I read (I haven’t fact checked them but find them interesting for this post). Women are statistically smaller than men and smaller individuals of a species live longer than larger ones. Men on average have faster metabolisms than women which is said to contribute to faster aging as well.
The obvious explanation for the life expectancy differential is that girls are more likely to catch a toilet-seat borne disease.
Women recieve better health care.
There is such a better joke to have with knowing that those lizards do not die of old age but instead eventually become too big to support themselves.
Snake? SNAAAAAAAKE?
They’ve done studies on this. Single blokes die sooner because they haven’t got a Mrs to nag them. “Nag”.
