The Older Woman Younger Man Relationship
August 9th, 2008 by GiGiLike it or not, we are still living in a male dominated society. Take a look at Aleta St. James, the lady who had two kids at the age of 57. A man at the same age fathering children wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow.
This same mind set can be applied when referring the older women dating a younger man. When a mature woman dates someone her age or older she is likely to be congratulated on her relationship. But if the guy is a younger man, it may be considered unacceptable and even scandalous.
It’s not unusual for the younger man dating an older women to brag about his relationship to his friends, but very often the relationship is kept hidden from his family. Many young men don’t appear to have the guts to tell their families. They believe that their family and in particular their parents are not ready for their older woman/younger man relationship.
Is it possible that society is bogged down by numbers and is completely overlooking the benefits of any relationship that gives the partners love and satisfaction? It is highly likely that the families of these May to December romances have a long way to come before the young men will feel confident enough to step up and declare their love and fascination with older women.
