I am a Japanese master's student studying statistics in the Netherlands. I did not even know about a few of the things you mentioned in the article. This article is so impressive.

So very interesting - and what is it about how one sits that affects ageing? Don't know how I missed reading this earlier.

Thank you for this very interesting analysis. After reading it, I looked into Japan's political structure, the parliament and female representatives. The issue of women outliving men in a male 'dominated' society does have dangerous consequences and requires some policy changes.
