Of course for auto insurance the cost differential worked the other way due to differences in accident rate.<br />If we're going to get health insurance premium rates that amalgamate and average the insurance costs for men and women, and apply the same rate to both sexes, why not do the same for Auto Insurance?<br />I know, different issue, different ox, different goring.Windy Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951254236693386401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-59948550232556344792012-03-23T14:42:20.624-06:002012-03-23T14:42:20.624-06:00I charted out rates for a particular set of polici...I charted out rates for a particular set of policies in my one region of Missouri. From birth to age 13, rates are identical for males and females. They both start quite high and quickly drop to a valley from age 5 to 13. From age 13 female rates increase more rapidly than male rates to nearly 50% more at age 35. After 35 the gap begins to narrow again, and after age 57, male rate suprass female rates until age 64 when this set of policies are no longer available.Hal Dustonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03579515713751458192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-17706668184356100262012-03-23T11:11:07.582-06:002012-03-23T11:11:07.582-06:00I have thought of this as a possible consequence o...I have thought of this as a possible consequence of requiring coverage for birth control for women...and the likely outcry from women's activists. And my response is- what about higher auto insurance rates for young men versus young women?Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00357283233480561620noreply@blogger.com
