When a husband marries his much younger wife we all focus on the inappropriateness of the age gap. Similar stories are brought about by the much-less-common pairing of a younger man with an older woman.
It’s well known that men tend to marry women younger than themselves which is a pattern that is leading to increasingly unbalanced male-to-female gender ratios as you move up to older and older age groups.
According to Susan Krauss, once a man is literally old enough to be a woman’s father or vice versa, for older women, public opinion starts to shift from acceptance to scepticism.
Women tend to date older men because they are more experienced and intelligent. This is because the older they are the wiser they are because of the many experiences they have been through.
More importantly, older men communicate better. This means that they hold very interesting and inspiring conversations as opposed to mincing words when speaking. As a result of this, they also are good listeners which is what women love as a character is their partner.
Most women do fear sharing their men and hence the main reason for them to get an old man is because there is little or no competition. This is due to the fact that the man is already aware of what he wants and hence he is not seeking attention from ladies.
