Actually yes, that's a very good guess. Men are more likely to be employed in outdoor jobs such as roofing, are more likely to engage in outdoor recreation like hiking or golfing, and are less likely to quickly seek shelter because they don’t want to look like a sissy:rollseyes
That's why men are more likely to be struck by lightning - I'm not a chauvinist btw ;-) LoL
