WOMEN ARE MORE ADDICTED TO TECHNOLOGY THAN MEN
10.54% of adolescents are addicted to their phones. The addiction rate among females is 150% higher than that of males.
Female college students spend an average of 10 hours a day on their cell phones, while male students spend nearly eight. Thus female college students spent 25% more time each day on their phones than males.
Phone addiction is 10% higher among women than among men.
The number of mobile phone addicts increased 123% between March 2013 and March 2014. The increase was 10% higher among women than among men.
34% of teen girls ages 14-17 say they mostly go online using their cell phone, 10 percent higher than teen boys the same age. This is notable since boys and girls are equally likely to be smartphone owners.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “unsure”. That’s why an article from April 2013 said that “researchers are still unsure why girls go online on their phones more than boys do”.
The prevalence rate of internet addiction among 1,100 mostly female Taiwanese polled was 10.6 percent.
Gender and five personality domains could significantly predict 13.5% of the scores on the Mobile Phone Problem Usage Scale [F(6,497) = 13.00, P < 0.001]. “Females, high extraverts, high neurotics, and low open-minded are liable to score higher on the scale [Table 2].”
The author of the article averred “One note of caution: It’s important to remember that Roberts’ study shows that most people who are “addicted” to their cell phones are primarily using them as a way to stay connected to other people. In a 2013 blog post for Psychology Today, psychology professor Ira Hyman, Ph.D., writes that researchers may just be observing the rise of a new norm in social interaction: immediate, hyper-connected and here to stay.
“Feeling a need to be socially connected hardly seems like an addiction to me,” Hyman writes.
An article from September 2014 said “Men sent the same amount of emails as women but spent less time doing so. Roberts said this indicated that men were sending “shorter, more utilitarian messages than their female counterparts.”
In December 2015 “Females were reported to score higher on the problematic mobile phone use scale (Takao et al., 2009).”

Even more countries had falls in life expectancy at older ages in 2015. For females, life expectancy at age 65 fell in 25 EU countries, and it fell in 21 countries for males.
