The mortality rate for young men in society is six times what it is for young women, from violence and from accidents, just the stupid stuff that young men do; jumping off of things they shouldn’t jump off of, lighting things on fire they shouldn’t light on fire, I mean, you know what I’m talking about. They die at 6 times the rate that young women do. Statistically, as a teenage boy, you would be safer in the fire department or the police department in most American cities, than just walking around in your hometown looking for something to do. – Sebastian Junger, TED video
