• ANSWER-Research suggests that men's higher mortality rate in part reflects their traditional gender role
• Men to tend to indulge in more risky behaviours than women like alcohol,smoking,drugs etc.And yes,the gender role of men to be the bread winner of their family and provide financial security is an added pressure on men,which increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases in them more than in women.
