Man's age / 2 + 7 = Woman's age. So, a 40 year old man should date a 27 year old. A 32 year old woman attracts 50 year old males.

As women generally outlive men by as much as 10 years, that formula would certainly give the female many good years alone after the old boy has dropped off the vine.

I think this formula only works if the man has already demonstrated his ability to look after the woman and potential family. Today this relates to him having money and resources. then she is on a sure thing without taking the risk.

I can see why an older man would be interested in a younger women. Beyond security... cannot see any other reason for why a young women is interested in an older man unless he is Frogenish.

Who made this crap up?

When you are young, most people choose (and marry) a partner around the same age. Both plan to have children. IF that doesn't pan out, second time around for a 40 year old female and a 30 year old male sounds fine to me.

Young, blonde females with false breasts seem to attract the Old Man. However, there are also older women who have relationships with males 30+ years younger. It seems to depend on the $$$$$$$ angle.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a Toy Boy.

A man with a woman 10 years older inevitably one days thinks "I could be with woman 10 years younger" and leaves.
