Do men get less wrinkles than woman?

I heard that men get wrinkles WAY later in life because there hair follicles offer a support system, also they have oily skin and there skin is 40% thicker than woman's. This is what my Biology teacher told me

men get just as much wrinkles as women...although our skin is tougher...we work them harder than women9 play sports, expose them to sun / smoke etc....harsh environements such as construction and such)....it's just tht men dont care as much as women when they do get wrinkles :P

Always believe your teachers!

But there are many other factors: men who smoke wrinkle far earlier - a 50 year old smoker looks like a 70 year old who doesn't smoke.

And exposure to sun is the worst - so if you work outside, like a farmer for example - you'll get wrinkles far earlier than an office worker who doesn't sunbathe.

Duh men don't have boobs so girls have more wrinkels than boys.

Most likely true but I think men carry aging better than women when it comes to looks.
