Well if I may pipe in... I have a girlfriend who married her bo, she was 20, he was 40, not to mention he was the cheif police of a respected vicinity. They are still together 25 years later with two full grown beautiful children. Likewise a gentlman friend of mine was with a woman 14 years older than him for 15 years, at the time he was 32 and she was 46, seemed a bit odd at the time, but they did ok together.. I have to wonder if the idea of an older man loving a younger female doesnt fall into the (jealousy) category when voices mingle in gossip. Men who have the edge are usually older, but not shy of the idea iether. They know what the female desires in many arena's of her life, so this could be key to why you see the older man with the younger female, he takes care of business. Its a little farther and few between with an younger man, but I am only speaking from my own experience, not really knowing what the percent rate is. I dated a man who was 10 years younger than me when I was single, he had a great job and was all together a very nice person, but to young in the mind...to many things to pick up on as far as being with an older woman. Its a catch 22...some win some dont.
