    Point conceded. I haven't worked that type of job so I don't have first hand experience.

        Lol I feel that. I think you are right tho, ignoring safety regs is probably part of why men get struck more. Tbh when I first read it I was skeptical too because might not men being taller on average play a part it in too?

        Ultimately I think toxic masculinity is still a main cause.

        Another point the author made, she cites this but I didn't actually check the source, is that there is no medical reason men should live significantly shorter lives on average than women. She attributes this to toxic masculinity as well.
