Seriously, why don’t you report that marrying an older man is bad for a woman’s health? It’s the exact same study. This is just sexism of the very worst kind.
There’s no logical reason to report one half of a study’s results. Leaving out the risks for women’s health is dangerous for women. It looks like guys just want a justification for dating younger women.
What am I going to do about this study? Keep my husband healthy so I never have to date a guy 15 years older than me. This way we can both live a long time.

Iris, I’m so sorry you feel like I’m only posting about half the story. The truth is, regardless of age differences, married men live longer than single men and married women don’t live as long as single women. Those are the statistics, the reasons for this are up for debate.
I agree with your solution though, love your husband, live a good life, stay healthy and enjoy your time together for as long as it may be!
Wish you the best,
Dr. Adam Sheck
