 Well there's no need for everyone to get in a snit about it. I'm basing this on most of the men I've known. I'm sure there are exceptions, much like your aunts. I was referring to the stereotype. Stereotype's aren't just pulled out of thin air, you know. They are what commonly occours with a type of people, in this particular situation, men.
 But aren't we getting a little off topic? The original conversation was why Minerva and Severus shouldn't be together. I really didn't mean to get all these people infuriated with me because of my own thoughts and opinions, and I'm sorry if you felt I was claiming that 70 year old women and 40 year old men just SHOULDN'T be together. I was just saying that Minerva/Severus don't seem like a particularly 'cute' couple, and I was only talking about Minerva/Severus parings, not every couple similar to the 'woman is older then the man' relationship.

year old men found 70 year old women attractive. 


I have one aunt who is happily married to a man 18 years her 
junior.  She is 60 and he is 42.   They are very much in love and 
each of them looks the age they are.  Many couples with typical age 
pairings could take a lesson from these two.

I have another aunt who was married for 30 years to a man 11 years 
her junior, yet again another successful happy marriage.

So there!  Just because most people follow a stereotypical pattern 
doesn't mean everyone does, and, more importantly, doesn't mean 
everyone SHOULD.  Different strokes for different folks.
