If people lived 8 years on average, instead of 80, how would everyday life be different than now?
What about 800 years instead of 80?

8 Years: Lots of sex daily. The continuation of the species is a primal urge. This is under the assumption that during the 8 year lifespan we age differently. In no way am I condoning sex for an 8 year old.
800 Years: Less sex daily but possibly more sex overall. Plus the raise in suicide rates once we find out we cant retire until were 700 years old.
For one I think we'd lose track of the things we discover a lot faster. For another I'd be dead a long time, and a lot shorter than I am now.
Don't fancy being pregnant at age three.
I don't think we would notice a difference since living to be 8 would be the norm.
