First of all, that's generally a situation with a younger woman and an older man. I'm not going to comment on the reverse situation because it's very rare.

It violates the social norm again. Like women cross-culturally prefer men who are about four years older. And there's a variety of reasons for that. The major reason is that a wise woman isn't looking for another child. She's looking for someone who she can rely on to be productive, generous, loving when she's incapacitated or more incapacitated in pregnancy and with young children.

And so women, even the scorecard by looking for men who are mature and no wonder. And young men have to understand that. A 17-year-old male is not a very marketable creature. Now, there are exceptions to that. You know, spectacularly attractive people who are outstanding in some manner can leapfrog the game. But basically, men gain advantage as they age. There are women who I've met who

are looking for someone who's quite substantially more mature. And there are advantages to that, I think, for a woman. Because as men establish themselves, they know more, they have broader social connections, they're more competent, and they have more resources. And the other thing, you know, is by the time you're 25... You're about as old as everyone else until they're like 70.

You know, you hit that period of maturity where roughly people are the same age. And so if you're attracted and you're both willing, then I don't see that as a problem that's any more insurmountable than personality differences or the other things. idiosyncrasies that couples have to contend with.

I don't know if there are experiments of this sort, but they'd be easy enough to run. If you're after a one-night stand, then why not have a 22-year-old? No, that totally understands. Well, no, but that's it. That's the whole story. But if it's a relationship... for anyone who has any sense.
