It’s a Roissy-approved truism that oftentimes the things that feel good to us are also good for us.
A recent German study found that men live longer if they marry younger women, and that the longevity benefits accrue with each additional year the woman is younger than the man. (Hat tip: reader Conscientious Observer)A man’s chances of dying early are cut by a fifth if their bride is between 15 and 17 years their junior.The risk of premature death is reduced by 11 per cent if they marry a woman seven to nine years younger.Every man reading this is saying to himself “They needed a study for this?”. Every woman reading this is saying to herself “I cream for Roissy!”.And in a shocking… shocking, I say!… discovery,
older women are bad for a man’s health.The study at Germany’s Max Planck Institute also found that men marrying older women are more likely to die early.What about the fabled cougars and their false bravado boosterism for the delights of hard-up boy toys?The results suggest that women do not experience the same benefits of marrying a toy boy or a sugar daddy.Wives with husbands older or younger by between seven and nine years increase their chances of dying early by 20 per cent.Hilarious. As for women dying younger when married to an older man, that’s a feature, not a bug. Since he’s older and has a shorter lifespan as a man, she’ll die right around the same time as him. Hollywood romance!

The study’s authors theorize why this might be so.Scientists say the figures for men may be the result of natural selection – that only the healthiest, most successful older men are able to attract younger mates.“Another theory is that a younger woman will care for a man better and therefore he will live longer,” said institute spokesman Sven Drefahl.I have a better theory. When a man is banging a hot chick half his age he wants to stay alive as long as possible! Incentives matter.Roissy Maxim #93: The rare [/b]
older woman-younger man pairing[/b] is like a lab experiment gone wrong. It violates the natural order of things, and leaves its practitioners emotionally twisted and in a constant mental race to hyperrationalize their subpar mate choice.[/b]
The younger man in such a bizarro world December-May coupling has no interest in her rusty muff beyond dumping a few fucks in her until someone younger and hotter comes along. The older woman knows she is an expedient hole and will never be loved by her boy toy, nor will she ever truly be able to love him. (Women are wired to experience difficulty falling in love with younger men.) Hers is a loveless future of cats and belly roll lint.And so what you see are weirdo new-age divorcees and rode hard and tossed away wet single moms bleating most loudly about the glories of the younger man, because in point of fact they cannot attract the sorts of men they most want. They wave away their sad predicament with a bowl of sour grapes and transparent sloganeering. There are certain types of women nearly all men avoid for anything more substantial than a few rolls in the hay. Two types that are always at the top of that no-go list are eccentric, deranged divorcees and bitter, emotionally arid, caustically unfeminine single moms.Go forth, brothers, and sweep a younger woman off her feet. You now have the stamp of science validating your lechery.
