[Answer] 6. Which of these, on average, costs a lot more for young men than for young women in the US and Canada?

...1. Car insurance 2. Rent 3. University education 4. Shoes Car insurance for male drivers is, on average, higher than female drivers in the US and Canada. This is especially true for adolescents and new drivers, even those who are insured as secondary drivers. This is due to statistics that show that males typically make more costly insurance claims. Males tend to drive more often and farther distances than females, and are therefore more likely to get into accidents at all ages. Young women may have their fair share of 'oops'es behind the wheel, but young men are typically more reckless and therefore their accidents end up being more serious or expensive. Generally, insurance costs for males will decrease as the individual gets older and gains more driving experience, unless there are accidents and tickets on their record.
