What do you think of men who marry much younger women?

No, women are biologically at their best for procreation in mid-thirties while men hit this stage in mid-twenties. This also makes more sense since the average woman outlives the average man


Well that's not true. Fertility in women declines from about 30 onward and are most fertile between about 20-24. The mid-thirties are an upper limit.

Men are fertile into there fifties-sixties, there is just a higher proportion of men who will have developed sperm disorders by that age.

Well they have to do that. A 30 year old man should marry like a 19 or 20 year old. A 40 year old man should marry a 20 year old woman, and so on. You have to catch them in their prime while they're still biologically viable, i.e. before they put on a lot of mileage and expire. Women are more or less finished by the time they're in their late 20s, no point in marrying them at that stage in their lives.

It's pretty dumb for a 30 year old man to marry a 30 year old woman, or for a 40 year old man to marry a 40 year old woman. Why would you do that to yourself.

You do not think that's a big age gap? A 40 year old man is obviously more mature and experienced in life. They might want different things at that time in life. He might not be able to keep up with his wife and want a quieter life and so on

Older guy / younger girl is a simple extension of the obvious fact which is that women just love money.


not always

pathetic. Clearly needs someone naive they can manipulate more easily and is more easily impressed by their tiny penis and general selfishness.

I think the age different is completely insignificant. By the time someone reaches 20, they've already been an adult for a good 5 or 6 years already, they're fully mature in every aspect, they're very, very far from being a young child. And 40 years old isn't old. Just because someone's 40, it doesn't mean he's a lazy old man who wants to do nothing but sit around all day.
