These graphs depict the risk of being diagnosed with cancer given a person’s current age and sex. The data are based on the condition that the person is currently alive and does not have cancer. As noted on the graph, predictions for 100-year-olds are not available, so the 70-year and 80-year lines are dashed to represent an interpolation between available data points.It is clear from these graphs that, in general, women are much less likely to receive a cancer diagnosis!Data source: http://seer.cancer.gov/csr/1975_2012/browse_csr.php?sectionSEL=2&pageSEL=sect_02_table.13.htmlhttp://seer.cancer.gov/csr/1975_2012/browse_csr.php?sectionSEL=2&pageSEL=sect_02_table.14.html -- source link
