Winslow, whose wife died recently, told his friend Ted, "I would like to meet a woman who has lost her husband and marry again. She would understand what I'm going through." Ted's response, having read the latest statistics in the paper, was "Good luck with that. You know there are about _____ times more of us than them."

The exact number of widowed women in the last census in 2018 was 11.41 million in the United States. While there were 3.47 million men.

Also, men have more percentage of presenting deep depression and meaningful psychological conditions that affect their life negatively.

The orchard walls are high and hard to climb, And the place death, considering who thou art, If any of my kinsmen find thee here
Verizon [17]

<em>The orchard walls are high and hard to climb, And the place death, considering who thou art, If </em><em>any</em><em> of my kinsmen find thee here.</em>

<em>Any</em> is the indefinite pronoun because it means something like "it does not matter who of my kinsmen as long as the person is one of my kinsmen" although Present Day English demands agreement as third person singular (<em>if any of you agree</em><em>s</em>) in the passage the agreement is third person plural because from the point of view of meaning [<em>any of my kinsmen</em>] can be replaced as <em>they</em>  and the verb <em>find</em> agrees with this plural idea.

Present Day British English has this kind of agreement called collective noun which grammatically can function like the pronoun <em>they</em>, for example as in <em>the committee </em><em>have</em><em> started the meeting</em>). The word <em>police</em> is another example of collective noun by taking third person plural agreement as in the sentence <em>The police </em><em>have </em><em>arrived</em>.
