The Politically Incorrect Gender Crossover Effect

The Politically Incorrect Gender Crossover Effect
Bernard Pyron
In this society and culture, it is some accomplishment for a man
to live to be 85 and not be mentally or physically disabled.
The politically incorrect gender crossover refers to a minority
of men who live to be 80, 85, 90 or older and are not
cognitively or physically disabled in some way. Toward the end
of the article cited they bring up the male hormone gender
difference between men and woman, that men have a higher
testosterone level than most women. The ideas on the Gender
Crossover Effect come partly out of the telemere theory of
aging.

"In nearly every culture on earth women outlive men —
significantly so in the oldest years. But the men who do survive
to become elderly are hardier than the women. A US National
Institute of Aging study showed that 44% of men over age 80 are
"robust and independent" compared with only 28% of women."
See: Perls, Thomas (2004). The oldest old, in: Scientific
American, The science of staying young,Vol. 14, No. 3, 2004, p.

"The common idea that advancing age inevitably leads to extreme
deterioration does, indeed, seem to require revision......The
economic burden of caring for people older than 85 could be
vast, especially if a
huge percentage of them need special care. Yet it may well be
that health bills for the oldest old will be lower than
previously
expected. Some of the first evidence supporting my suspicions
came
from a study on Alzheimer’s disease that I conducted with my
mentor, Lewis A. Lipsitz of the Hebrew Rehabilitation Center for
Aged in Boston. "
"OUR FINDING SUGGESTED that, at
least cognitively, the oldest old were in-
deed in better shape than has usually
been assumed. What, we wondered,
could explain their good condition? We
suspect that the answer to this riddle is
that, for whatever reason, some people
are particularly resistant to acquiring the
disorders that disable and kill most people."
"This selective survival hypothesis
may also clarify various other once puzzling findings
demonstrating unusually
good cognitive and physical health in the
oldest old.......Early signs of the gender crossover can be seen
in studies of 80-year-olds " Men who survive to this age without
major health problems often continue to
live without needing special care. Richard M. Suzman and his
colleagues at the National Institute on Aging found that
men older than 80 years in one such
study were more independent than were
similarly aged women. Their report indicated that 44 percent of
the men in that age group were robust and independent compared
with only 28 percent
of women. Additionally, Kenneth G.
Manton and Eric Stallard of Duke University estimated the active
life expectancy, that is, the years of independent life left for
members of the U.S. senior population. Their findings showed
that after age 85, men could expect to
live a healthy and active life longer than
women could."
"The testes have been regarded as the source of maleness at
least since ancient Rome, where eunuchs & women were not
permitted to "testify" (testis is Latin for "witness"). In the
male, LH stimulates secretion of testosterone by the
interstitial cells of Leydig in the testes. FSH stimulates
spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules of the testes."
"There is no sudden "andropause" event in males that is
comparable to the menopause event of females. Instead,
testosterone levels tend to decline gradually with age. This
decline occurs most dramatically in those with cardiovascular
disease or a predisposition to adult-onset diabetes. Although
sperm count declines, fatherhood has been verified for a male as
old as 94."
There are some very recent movements in empirical science that
are relevant to the Politically Incorrect Gender Crossover. One
of these recent discoveries is about Chromosome Telomere Length
as being determined by Amount of Stress, Certain Nutrients,and
Exercise. Chromosome Telemere Length theoretically determines
lifespan and overall health.
The second recent scientific work relevant to the Gender
Crossover is the focus upon nutrients which determine health at
the cell level, and Pyrroloquinoline Quinone or PQQ, and NAD +
Cell Regenerator and similar nutrients. These are supplements
used by an elite - and it may be that a more effective - and
more expensive - version of hese supplements are available only
to the elite, while the version of these supplements sold to the
larger number of people do not work as well.
The higher testosterone level among men over 85 or over 90 who
remain physically and mentally active is an hypothesis, and
subject to research, which probably will show a more complex
relationship in these men between testosterone levels and their
remaining physically and mentally active. There are a number of
other biochemicals, hormones and brain transmitters which can
have an effect upon mental and physical capabilities.
Many men who have high testosterone levels do not live to be 85
or 90. Some who do live to be 85 or more have physical and
mental disabilities. It may be that men who make it to 85 or 90
and are not physically or mentally disabled in some ways have
higher testosterone levels. There are other factors involved.
The first other factor that comes to mind is intelligence, and
the second is the three factors which contribute to longer
chromosome telomeres - certain nutrients, regular exercise and
ability to reduce stress. Men who live to be 85 or 90 and are
not disabled probably have longer telomeres than average.
