Impossible. If you rank avoidable deaths by quantity, men arrive in all the top 10 categories, so I’m pretty sure no-one would want to make this list anyway.

Yeah, but I don't know what this has to do with children.
If there were a political bandwagon around ranking child death causes, I'd probably still not trust it, and I view murder differently from accidents anyway.

Agreed on all counts. Even discussion of the statistics on firearms-related mortality tends to sidestep the proportion of suicides. People seem forever to be more interested in pushing their own positions than the hard work of solving the problems, even just one person at time.

Don't say that out loud.
Clearly nobody is suggesting that on average men flock towards more dangerous higher paying professions which until recently also meant higher wages.
Wouldn't want people to make the connection between risk and reward as a factor in economics.

Yes, CEO is a high-risk profession (you can really hurt your back golfing all day), but coal miner is not.
Plus what does this have to do with mortality in children again?

no, you hurt your general well being by working very late, too little sleep, being stressed etc.

They complain about CEOs but they are like 0.1% of the population. Men also flock in the bottom jobs. They don’t even see 90% of the men.
But yes, the transition between CEO and homeless is surprisingly sudden. It’s indeed a risky job.
