The health of Australian men
Australian men have a lower life expectancy, are more likely to be overweight and experience higher rates of a range of chronic diseases in comparison to women.[1,2] Despite the contributions that unhealthy lifestyle behaviours make to the burden of disease, approximately 50% of men are insufficiently physically active, 97% do not consume the recommended serves of vegetables, and 71% do not consume enough fruit. About 13% of men aged 18 years and over smoke daily, and 26% consume alcohol at levels that exceed the lifetime risk guidelines.[1] In 2020, the leading causes of death for Australian men were coronary heart disease, dementia (including Alzheimer’s disease) and lung cancer.[3]
Death by suicide is more than three times as common in Australian men in comparison to women.[2] Traditional masculine norms (e.g., stoicism, self-reliance, toughness) have stigmatized help-seeking behaviours,[4,5] and further evidence suggests that service providers’ perceptions of masculinity may also hinder men’s willingness to engage with mental health support services.[6] Likewise, men’s engagement with the healthcare system is often suboptimal and characterised by delayed access and shorter consultations.[1]
