While I do find those statistics alarming one has to take into account the circumstance and other factors that follow through into a statistic. More women are left to be independent to care for children, more women find it hard to come up with certain funds, the father just died. So when one says "Women on average" you account that those women are in there. Now when you change the statistics from "how many married women consume health care" and "how many single women consume health care" and "how many never married women receive health care" you'll see that the those that are single (many factors contribute to a woman being single) completely overshadow the other factors but when you say on average you factor that the women that don't even use healthcare like that should all of a sudden start paying more just because their single counterpart statistic does? Of course not, that's as big a myth as women getting paid less in the private sector because there is no proof in history of human affairs were true equality has been reached and in some cases the women are making more than men even. So no, women shouldn't have to pay more healthcare than men, because if that happens you're just promoting gender inequality and giving more feminist a reason to hate men, this will spur interest groups to lobby women pay even less than they were originally earning. The last thing you want to mess with is taxpayers money because when they find out, hell breaks loose. Men paying the same amount as women is justified because you're both receiving equal benefits, if I'm paying 20 dollars for more of a product and you're paying 20 for not as much, it is not my problem if you want to pay more to consume more you forget that the more is consumed the more they pay, the amount payed isn't constant at all as interest rates pay a big role, while women may be paying equal to men their interest rates are an entire different story. You pay 20 for a product I pay 20 for a product on paper we are paying the same but my interest is 3% but you're interest is 8% as a woman. Calculate interest multiply the money by the interest percentage rate by the year (if in months divide that Monty by 12 then factor in) and you'll see why statistics are generally surface level you have to dog deeper so women should not pay more than men in health care at least not principle rise, interest is something else.
