Let me float this theory:
1) Guys are pretty much at the bottom of the totem pole when they are young. Between ages 16-24 if you're not in college you're probably working some crappy job, maybe even living at home. You might go out and get dates, but it's really hard to impress the ladies when you're driving around in your beatup El Camino. You are less desirable, then say, a 30-35 year old whose making good money, has some job security, and maybe even owns his own house.
2) Women on the other hand, are very desirable in their early years. Especially the attractive ones who can choose any guy they want and are never deprived in the attention department. Generally, they tend to feel more committed around the guy with the stable job whose making the decent money and whose got a little security in their lives (i.e., the older guys). And in our society there is no question that the younger women are more desirable than the older women.
We've seen or heard the scenarios. Older guy divorces wife --and this may sound like a cheesy enquirer title-- to be with a younger woman. And on the flip side, younger girls dump young guys to be with older ones. Is this a current trend, or has it always been around?
So it sounds true to me that men's stock increases with time while a women's stock decreases.
