Why is Russia today a country of widows?
The reform of the pension system undertaken by the authorities actualized the question of how many Russians can actually live to achieve a well-deserved rest. According to some reports, 8% of women and 32% of men do not have time to get their pension money at least once. True, everyone is used to seeing grandmothers on benches near the porches, but where are their grandfathers?
Let's try to figure out why Russian men live much less than their women. Why is Russia today a country of widows?
If you call a spade a spade, men are for the state a low-paid labor force and consumables. At the beginning of the two thousandth Cabinet of Ministers approved a list of “male” professions: underground work and high-altitude work, metallurgy and electric welding, and others, a priori carrying a considerable risk. Men, unlike women, in our country are liable for military service and at the call of the state must take a machine gun and go to fulfill their duty to their homeland. Experts explain:
The public organization “Male Movement” pointed out some factors that put additional pressure on men, including “reproductive lawlessness”, the need to pay child support, as well as more stringent liability measures provided for by the Criminal Code for men.
At the same time, the “strong field” bears the burden of maintaining a family, which in our difficult economic conditions forces it to spin from dawn to dusk, for wear. The result is logical: men hunch back at work, exist in constant stress, and after a couple of decades, many of them begin to suffer from cardiovascular and oncological diseases. At the same time, ways to relieve stress (alcohol and cigarettes) make a significant contribution to accelerating the death of life. Is it any wonder that the "stronger sex" in Russia, on average, lives ten years less than the "weaker"?
Authorities point out that the Russians themselves are to blame for their short and difficult lives, since oncology is the result of smoking, and heart disease is the result of systematic drunkenness. Due to the state of intoxication at the wheel, fatal accidents often occur. Therefore, according to the logic of state officials, Russian men, in order to live to the cherished 65 years, must themselves be sober, hardworking and optimistic.

In Russia, a boy from early childhood is taught that a man should not cry, should not be afraid of pain, should be physically such a King Kong that drinking alcohol is normal, that smoking is generally like breathing.
