May 17, 2010 (Pen Men at Work): Research has demonstrated that the females, who get hitched with younger males, have a tendency to pass away before their time. The younger her much-loved male companion is, the harder it is on her wellbeing.

Males, in contrast, seem to flourish when they walk down the aisle with someone younger. In fact, the younger his wife, the longer a male breathes.

The finding will be a source of astonishment to mounting numbers of ‘cougars’. ‘Cougar’ has a few definitions. One of the definitions is that a cougar means a female, who is 35 years of age or older, who chases younger males, normally more than eight years her junior.

The aforementioned discrepancy was unveiled by an investigation of the matrimonial and demise-related records of two million Dutch males and females.

It embodied that men, who wed younger females, reside longer than those, who prefer a spouse of their own age.

For example, a male (sugar daddy), with a wife seven to nine years his junior is 7 per cent less prone to die at any given time than one, who opts for a female of the same age.

The larger the age gap, the longer his existence. On the contrary, a female, who catches a chap seven to nine years younger, is 20 per cent more prone to die than the one, who got hitched with a chap of her own age.

For any female, who weds a man more than 15 years younger, the risk rockets to 30 percent. This data has been reported in the journal Demography.

The investigators from Germany’s Max Planck Institute for Demographic-Research articulated that it is not comprehensible why wedding a toyboy is so terrible for a female’s healthiness.

But they have judged that males generally derive benefit from having a much younger wife since she will be able to take care of her husband as he ages.

She is also more likely to thicken her husband’s social circle and welfare, heightening his cerebral and bodily health.

Simultaneously, women may abridge their lives by wedding a toyboy because their husband is expected to be less enthusiastic to look after them through old age.
