Re: Cher's new 36 year old boyfriend...

I get that they are 2 consenting adults and all that, but I'm not really a fan of May-December romances no matter which gender is older.

It has become more acceptable and it's cool these days for younger guys to date a cougar.

I say it's about time. Not all women want to dry up and blow away with age. Good for Cher and her new beau!!!!

Are mature men so repelled by mature women that all the ladies have to choose from are very young men?

 

A few might prefer this upside-down chronological pairing, but I am dismayed that "unusual" young men are all that seem to be available for the older woman.

 

Perhaps it is only in Hollywood and among the elite that such an imbalance occurs.  I don't know...

 

 


@golding76    Most of the "mature" men are either dead or senile.

@Nonametoday    Cher is going to need financial support?  Surely you jest.

 

Most likely her money is the source of attraction for the young man.

While most couples that marry early are pretty close to the same age, it's usually because they met in high school or college.  These were the people they had access to socially, so that's who they married.

 

That changes dramatically with second or third marriages.  A divorced man's ex is probably close to his age, but his next wife will be years younger.  They don't continue to pursue women their own age. 

 

As for women, at some point vitality means a LOT more than actual age. 

 

Another consideration is that if older men are looking for a wife, they are really looking for a care giver for their last years.    An older woman sees through that, so men have to opt for a younger woman.

 

For many, many centuries marriage was about security in families and countries, and social status.  Love was almost never a top priority.

 

IMO, people should do what makes them happy, regardless of the age of the people you date.

Just curious if those who frown on Cher's relationship with this much-younger man feel the same way about Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones who've been married over 20 yrs now.
