The UN estimates that in 2015 there were 101.8 men for every 100 women in the world. The gap is insignificant, but only at first glance - the number of men has been constantly growing since 1960. In addition, the ratio of men and women in the world is extremely uneven. In the Arab countries, there are much more men than women, while in the countries of the former Soviet Union, on the contrary, there is a shortage of the male population. We found out in which countries the fair sex prevails.

Latvia

84.8 per 100

In the Baltics, there is a clear shortage of men - residents of Latvia cannot find a companion in their homeland, so they often leave in search of other EU countries.



Lithuania

The ratio of men to women: 85.3 per 100

The closest neighbors of Latvians, Lithuanians, also rank first in terms of the number of women in the country. The situation with childbearing here is also sad - fewer couples find each other and fewer children are born, and this with a rather high mortality rate.



Martinique

: 84.5 per 100

A small island in the Caribbean Sea can be safely called an archipelago of women - here is one of the strongest disproportions in demographics in favor of women.



Curacao

The ratio of men to women: 85.6 per 100

Another Caribbean state in which demographic matriarchy reigns - men can be brought here by whole ships.



Guadeloupe

The ratio of men to women: 86 per 100

The former French colony, like others like it, suffers greatly from a lack of harmony between local men and women, due to which the population of the archipelago is constantly declining.



Ukraine

The ratio of men to women: 86.3 per 100

Slavic women are very beautiful, and in Ukraine there are many more of them than men. That is why Ukraine is consistently a proven supplier of "wives for export".



Belarus

The ratio of men to women: 86.8 per 100

Absolutely identical indicators for another Slavic country from the former USSR. In Belarus, there is a real hunt for quality men, who are clearly lacking here.



Armenia

The ratio of men to women: 86.5 per 100

Armenian women are beautiful and passionate, which cannot be said about Armenian men. That is why more girls are born in the country, from which world stars like Kim Kardashian may well grow.



Russia

The ratio of men to women: 86.8 per 100

In Russia, as in other Slavic countries, in recent decades there has been a steady increase in the number of women, while men are becoming fewer and fewer. The reason for this is the lifestyle of Russian men, due to which their average life expectancy is almost ten years shorter than that of women.



Estonia

The ratio of men to women: 88 per 100

Estonians are considered the closest relatives of the Finns. Local beauties are fair-haired and blue-eyed, but there is no one to appreciate this - there is a clear shortage of men in the country.



Salvador

The ratio of men to women: 88.4 per 100

Since the early 1990s, the Central American state of El Salvador has been in an economic crisis. During this time, the number of able-bodied men of reproductive age has fallen significantly - the trend towards an increase in the number of women is very acute here.



Hungary

The ratio of men to women: 90.8 per 100

In the 1990s, Hungary acquired the unofficial status of the main supplier of beautiful actresses for adult films. This trend is not surprising - there are not enough men here, and those that are are so spoiled by female attention that they lose their hunting skill.

It so happened that in the Slavic countries there are more women than men, but there are countries where there are much more men and it is difficult for them to find a wife.

UAE

This wealthy country of 9 million also suffers from a shortage of women. Statistics say that for every 100 women there are 247 men.

Philippines

The Philippines is considered one of the poorest countries in the Pacific, which is why many Filipino women go to work abroad in Australia, Asia, and even the Middle East. As a result, the ratio of men to women (currently 1.02 to 1) is growing. Recent statistics also indicate that the number of couples getting married has declined, suggesting that the issue may be due to the lack of women.

India

It has long been known that Indian families prefer the birth of boys. Nevertheless, India has a colossal gender imbalance - there are 37 million more men than women in the country.

Libya

For several years, Libya has been waging a protracted civil war, and this has a significant impact on the population. If we add to this the traditionally restrictive role of women in Libyan society, it is not surprising that many residents of this country do not want to marry their compatriots.

Greece

Thanks to the beautiful nature and perfect weather conditions, Greece is a popular holiday destination for European youth, but despite the influx of emigrants, there are fewer women than men.

According to UN estimates, in 2015 there are 101.8 men for every 100 women in the world. The number of men has been gradually increasing every year since 1960. The Pew Research Center has prepared a new map showing that the distribution of the sexes is uneven. For example, in the countries of the former Soviet Union the number of women exceeds the number of men. And in Asia, Arab countries and North Africa, on the contrary, there are more men, reports.

Latvia, Lithuania, Armenia, Belarus, Russia, Estonia and Ukraine are among the countries with the most large quantity the female population.

The same countries lead in the difference between the life expectancy of men and women. In Belarus, for example, men live on average 65.3 years, and women - 77 years. The difference between these figures is greater only in Syria, which is engulfed in civil war.

Differences in sex ratio change with age. Thus, in the Russian Federation, the gender ratio differs in different age groups. More boys than girls are born there every year. In the group up to 31 years, men also predominate. But already from the age of 32, the female population is increasing. And this difference is increasing every year.

This gap is due to historical reasons. The history of the 20th century has seriously influenced the demographics in the USSR. According to the first census in Russia in 1897, there were 98.9 men per 100 women. The same balance is today in the US (98.3 men per 100 women).

The percentage of women in Russia began to grow during the First World War, civil war, famine and the Great Terror with the USSR. In 1939, there were 91.9 men for every 100 women. The Second World War had a huge impact on the proportions of the population, because it was mainly attended by men. In 1959, the ratio was already 81.9 men to 100 women. On the territory of Ukraine, this figure was 79.7 against 100, and, for example, in Azerbaijan - 92.3. In 1989, in the USSR as a whole, there were 89.5 men per 100 women.

The difference widened in the 1990s due to male mortality in early age. This was due to alcoholism and other addictions.

Initially, according to the laws of the Bible, each creature was created in pairs. Now this statement is irrelevant. According to studies, there are approximately 101.7 men for every 100 women.

Since 1961, the number of men began to grow sharply while women fall noticeably behind. Statistics are very dependent on what men and women do, as well as on the level of development of a particular country.

We will talk about states whose residents can be capricious when choosing a life partner. After all, there are a few more representatives of the stronger sex.

Sweden

Sweden is known for its high life expectancy, natural beauty and good people. It would seem, how can there be a shortage of men and an excess of women in such a country?

There are two reasons for this turn of events. The first is that in Sweden big problems with housing, or rather with its presence. So everyone is trying to move to another country.

And the second is that in connection with high emigration The number of men greatly outnumbered the number of women. So, if you want to find your love, you can safely go to Sweden, find some Swede there and live a happy life with him.

Italy

Men here love their homeland so much that Ready to sit in one place for the rest of your life?, improve the nest and wait for old age. Such love is transferred even on vacations, which they like to spend at home without leaving the border.

With regard to women, this is not very common, since they rather strive to build a career faster and, in order for them to succeed, they choose foreign tours.

It turns out that men stay, and women leave, and thereby reduce the number of women.

Iceland

The number of men in Iceland is more than one and a half percent. Long time on the Internet there was a rumor that the country has reached serious extremes.

The Icelandic government allegedly announced a $5,000 reward for marrying local men to nonresidents.

However, a refutation of this fact was later announced.

Norway

In Norway, scientists will not put their minds to how to fix the situation with gender gap of twelve thousand. Therefore, they understand how Sweden has to do in their case.

Finland

Finland's statistics are appalling. As the current numbers show, two hundred fifty finns between the ages of 24 and 55, they live their lives without meeting the same one.

UAE

This country has a total of nine million inhabitants. According to statistics, for every hundred women there are two hundred and fifty men.

Iran

In Iran, as in Italy, women choose careers. As a result, more than three million are unmarried and even leaving the country. This is estimated to greatly reduce their numbers.

USA

USA this deficit exists only in a few states and cities. For example, Las Vegas, San Francisco and Dallas.

Qatar

At first, life in this country was not rich. Later, the situation changed due to the fact that most of the population of Qatar is occupied by male workers.

As for women, representatives of a limited number of countries can enter here. Namely Great Britain or Canada.

India

As for the sex ratio, in this country preference is given to men more.

As in the population of China, there is such a principled position that boys babies are valued more than girls.

They do not hide the fact that violence against women is the norm here. In general, there is a gender imbalance in this country.

Canada

The situation in Canada far outweighs the problem in Norway. Statistics say that in Canada men two hundred thousand more than women, and all for the reason that many Canadians go abroad to work and never return.

Switzerland

Switzerland is popular for male expatriates. Because of this, she does not lag behind others in this issue.

England

Sitting at home and waiting for the husband to bring in earnings is not about stubborn English women. That is why many of them build their careers, and most often they do it outside their homeland.

China

And finally, finally, the country that is located at the first place with the problem of male predominance. The figure of this difference exceeds all expectations, because there are forty million more men in this country than women.

It can be summarized that China ranks first in terms of gender inequality, and India ranks second. The countries listed above follow. Between themselves, they divide places on the list depending on how and where business women travel.

This community has about 600 Brazilian women aged 20 to 35 years. The main livelihood in it is agriculture, many women in the commune have husbands and sons, but they are forced to work in other cities and only a few are allowed to see each other on weekends.

A year ago, representatives of this wonderful settlement addressed the men of the planet through the commune's Facebook page and the local press, with a proposal to move to them for permanent residence. The main intentions of women are romantic relationships and marriage.

2. Tuareg (live in Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Algeria and Libya)

The Tuareg have the concept of "Asri" - this is the absolute freedom of morals for all unmarried Tuareg women, regardless of whether they are girls, divorcees or widows. The more lovers she has, the higher her reputation. A girl cannot be given in marriage against her will.

3. Northern Mariana Islands (Pacific Ocean)

There are 756 men per 1000 women living here. And in age group from 18 to 64 years of age, there are even more women - 686 men per 1000 women.

4. Kyiv (Ukraine)

In this city, 54% of the population is women, which allowed the city to receive the title of the most attractive city for bachelors from all over the world.

Such female superiority may seem like a trifle, but in reality such a figure is considered statistically significant and capable of influencing the “balance of power” when searching for a soulmate.

5. Budapest (Hungary)

The female population of this city is 53%.

6. As for Russia, it’s not bad for bachelors either

The biggest “gender imbalance” is in Ivanovo: there are 190 women for every 100 men. In Yaroslavl - 179 women per 100 men, in Chita - 177, in Kursk - 174, in Nizhny Novgorod and Tver - 173, in Tula - 171, in Barnaul and Perm - 170.
