[quote=Anonymous]Probably because women arent necessarily interested in marrying younger.  In fact, women are much more likely to file for divorce AND less likely to remarry, which suggests that women are not enjoying marriage as much as men are.  Often this is because men do not contribute their share to the household, and younger men are probably, due to immaturity, more likely to be guilty of that.

So, again, it's not that men have an extra POOL to choose from.  Women could (and do) date younger men, when they want to.  But, again, women on the whole are MUCH, MUCH pickier when it comes to dating, and thus much more selective.

So, a hot little 21 year old dude probably doesnt hold much long term interest to a 40 year old lady, no matter how good in bed he is.

But the same cannot be said for men, who will generally 1) put up with much more in relationships, and 2) have been conditioned socially to think it's fine to pay for all of the costs of the relationship, so they dont really care if a 21 year old is a complete financial burden rather than a contributor.

Again, these are outliers.  The vast majority of men do not remarry younger.  but as for the difference in data between men and women, these are hypothetical explanations
