Remember all those articles claiming the coronavirus disproportionately affects women? New study shows men are almost twice as likely to die from coronavirus. (archive.is)

"Men die in twice the numbers: women most affected."

Of course women are most affected: it's their fathers, their husbands, their sons who are doing the dying, isn't it?

It's long known that it's more lethal to men. The articles that said it impacted women more were because women work in industries like healthcare and daycare/education.

Because inconvenience to women is more impactful than death to a man, I guess.

Sums up society. Not a left leaning (and up to date with currentyear views on race/sex/etc) woman? You don't matter.

We’ve pretty much known this for a while, women generally have a better immune system because of chromosomes. I remember early into this pandemic the argument was that “women are stereotypically caregivers so they come in contact more,” but they never allow that logic to apply to black individuals when it comes to police. Women seem to like being perpetual victims, especially feminist women.

Remember all those articles claiming everything disproportionately affects women? LOL What about how black people are most vulnerable to Coronavirus infection? Anecdotally, I can't help but notice when I'm out and about that the majority of people I see not wearing masks or social distancing are black, but we won't talk about that.....

We've known since around the second week that men were disproportionately affected by the virus and had a higher fatality rate. If you remember, the MSM were still writing articles about how women were most affected -- because the men die and left them.

Hillary Clinton once argued that women were the primary victims of war because they lost their husbands, fathers, and sons (as opposed to the men who merely died).

Even far-left Snopes rates this as "true"

I remember one from like April that actually said this but tried to say "women most affected". I think I bookmarked it, but I can't find it. I should have bookmarked it under "men die; women most affected".
