Are you saying you don't know why 40 year old plus men marry 20 something women?
Mrs JC dragged me to a tile store the other night. There were two couples in the store.

There was us - my wife is 2 years younger but looks 15 years younger (since I provide so little stress in her life).

I'm pretty sure the woman in the other couple was 40 years younger than her male partner. Yes. this tile store was in a very affluent area.

Many know this, but we had an outspoken child marriage advocate on this site not long ago.

I would laugh any time somebody else got a temporary ban...yet the guy who wants to marry 12 year olds stuck around for years.

Catherine O'Hara was gold!

Catherine O'Hara is pretty much always gold.

She deserves an Oscar for holding it together during John Candy's reportedly improvised Funeral Home story in Home Alone.

I suppose it could be interpreted that way but I was really insulting myself... not that Mrs JC doesn't look great (just in case she happens to be spying on me in here).

Edit: Also, I do not live in the affluent area.

That’s fascinating, and I have some questions. Where did you pull those?

Just a quick google of divorce rates by age at marriage. I didn’t confirm it by any means but it makes sense. In general, people are more stable and rational as they get older. Once again, in general, people change way more in their 20s than they do 30 and beyond.

Anybody have the pic of the Iowa State fan with a poster that said something like, "If a West Virginia couple gets a divorce, are they still cousins?" Seems like it ought to be posted in this thread!
