  • we Asian knows the answer

  • Marrying a younger woman is much better than a woman your own age or older. My ex was one year younger, my current woman is 12 years younger and it is MUCH, MUCH, MUCH Better.

  • another thing is that men more or less always feel the need to protect their girlfriends, and if she's older that makes her more capable of taking care of herself. which makes the man feel less needed (and its a fact that men LIKE to feel needed^^)

  • the worse single life is still better than the best married life DONT GET MARRIED BOYS!

  • 1. Women don't mature faster than men. 2. Women aren't smarter than men. 3. There are 100 reasons a man should marry a younger woman. The easiest is Human biology. Women have a small window of opportunity to have children. They want marriage years before men do. Easier to marry an older man who is on the same page.

  • Isn't there a "half your age plus 7 years" rule someone made up??

  • Most younger women, say 25 or 30, aren't interested in men 50 or over

    unless they have money, and lots of it.

  • My boyfriend is 8 years older than me so this doesn't apply to me.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

  • HMm how will others perceive us. eh, I want a career and do not want to get married if possible young and i want to have a family till i am like 38-45,but my fertility will be low. EHH IDK, i hope it works though

  • i really really want to be a mother, have an international career, am not sure how this is going to work out. i again really want to be a mother of my own, so i am definitely going to get a sperm donor(s). i want like 3-5 children of my own. UH how is this going to work out. HMM, how am i going to explain this to my children about their birth arrangements, to their identity, what if their sperm donor is from another races.

  • @mollykjody

    I'm sorry. I don't understand, Why not just have a family of

    your own like other people do? Is it because you fear you will never find the right person to marry?

    I just don't understand why you would need a sperm donor. (s) If you don't want to talk about it, I

    understand.

  • how does it work if you are in a lesbian relationship? i look at men for admiration and gender equality, but i do not really have any interest as in a relationship wise. I am 19 years. i prefer to date older women like maybe 28 but mostly around 37+ or something along those lines. i know this is really forward and too much, this is just for me though.

  • Younger equals sexier for longer... this is obvious. If I date someone who's 18 now, she'll still be 28 when I'm in my mid 30's... and that means things will stay perky, smooth and pretty. I date someone who's older they're in they're 40's when I'm in my mid 30's. The difference between 28 and 42 is likely to mean a lot when I'm 35.

  • Asian Beauties DATEMEDEAR.INFO

  • After 30 women go down hill at 200mph and catches men so quickly, and women look nasty after 40

  • Am I the only monkey among us who only heard her say the secret for a happy marriage "for men" is a wife at least 5 years their junior? I thought marriage was a two way street.

  • anas is like 12 years older than me and i would tottally marry her

  • age is nothing but a number.... it's all about feeling good

  • The reason is because women are attracted to higher status men, and men gain status as they get older because they've progressed further in their careers and in their ability to provide for a family.

  • @allenm541 ............ true

  • @aguilarale7 how old are you then?

  • This girl is stupid

  • I love how the ad that popped up was "find a sperm donor today"

  • What's the advantage of marrying younger? Uggghh... they're younger so they're HOTTER. Duh. They're not gonna age as quickly and thereby, lose their youthful looks. It's not obvious? Really? A hotter, smarter wife who's not getting old any time soon will definitley improve the quality of a marriage.

  • i dont see huge tits hurting a marriage either lol

  • May be it is because women age earlier. you must have seen many couples where wife seems to be mother of her mate.

  • "the secrets to a happy marriage is gigantic tits" AHAHAHHAHA go Ana!!!

  • why is ana complaining she has a job and a nice rack

  • Ana is so hot.

  • my dad married someone eight years younger than him. so he should be good for life.

  • come on cenk dont pretend you dont know the reason. its because younger women are hotter, how is that not blatantly obvious. ana wtf stop taking it so personally, such an emotional response from her.

    come on tyt keep it real thats why we tune in, we dont want faux naivete from cenk and we dont want bitchy "big tits" comments from ana.

  • @cm1155 yeah it's because thier hotter but it ALSO means they stay hotter longer.

  • the secret to a good happy marriage is

    FUCK HER IN THE ASS!!!!

  • shes hot

  • i think the trick to a good marriage would probably be not to cheat and always remain faithful ALWAYS. and be on the same mature level or whatever i guess.

  • Women mature faster than men so the 5 years difference really put both people's maturity on the same level.

  • that's a good argument for teenagers, but people who are in their 40s are the same maturity level regardless of their gender

  • i thought she was about to punch a man

  • Another example of economy vs morality, with economy winning. The morality is what we all want (equality, same age for ideal marriage), while the economy is what really goes on in the world (men are more attracted to youthful looking women, so the longer a man's wife retains youthful looks, the less temptation to go out and cheat or find someone else, etc). Hey, call us pigs, but we produce 50 million sperm daily for a reason.

  • Dumb blond young chicks are sooooooo much more fun than old grouchy smart woman, FACT.

  • Why marry younger women? Because when you're 50 she'll be 45, better then having a 55 yr old wife at 50. Amirite?

  • Ana. I don't care if you are older than me. I'll still marry you and we will be extrememly happy.

    Well... at least I know I will.

  • you know sometimes I wonder if these so-called study orgs get their PH.ds from a black market sometimes

  • because women mature faster than men

  • sorry Ana, you're probably smarter than your boyfriend too. You've gotta see the reality of the study... Jayar's got it this time.

  • JR always chimes with a good point.

  • Fuck Ana

  • I think it's better to marry a woman at least 10 years younger and not as smart as it is being reported.

    Young dumb chicks are so much more fun than old smart woman. Seriously, as any guy.

  • clits and dildos

  • ANA HAS A BOYFRIEND??? aaaa Im gonna kill myself

  • 3:26 - Obviously men like younger women and are more likely to keep them Ana you dumb ass! Wow, she is so subjective and never shuts up about these things. Ana, be glad your boyfriend is 8 yrs older. He is more likely not to leave you. Count your blessings.

  • Men mature older. He's right. End of.

  • sucked in feminists

  • cuz old women tread men like the lil bro or children. younger women are imature -er ,but its a flip of the coin 50-50

  • It's a good thing I'm older than Ana. Ana muffins!

  • You know what cracks me up about this vid? You've got the American 'guy' (Cenk) being slightly sexist where he kind of wants to 'hear' that it's cool that 'younger women go for men'. Yet you've got the silly feminist moron, Kasparian, who's twisting up the data by making out British scientists ONLY 'did' the study in order to 'portray' men are going to be 'persuaded' by this so that they will go for younger women- and saying she 'doesn't believe it'. It's about as daftly absurd as you can get.

  • The study sounds about as daftly absurd as it gets.

    I'm 22 years old. I think even where the study was done It'd be illegal for me to marry a woman 5 years younger than me. So this study would HAVE to deal with age ranges and take them into account.

    Plus a 23 year old is FAR more likely to make more money than a fresh out of high school 18 year old. On top of that 5 years is enough to get a college degree and land better jobs.

    Plus the study may be saying "younger wife = less likely to cheat"

  • But the study was done in relation to ALL serious couples from the range of 18 to seniors. Generally most people get into a serious relationship from the age of about 25 onwards. The fact that you're 22 years old, and not likely to date a 17 year old is completely irrelevant. Your age range is just in a minor segment of ALL the age ranges. And let's face it- how many 22 year olds start a serious relationship for life at that age. I'm know some people do, but they are in a minority overall.

  • Lastly- the study ISN'T 'saying' quote you- "Plus the study may be saying "younger wife = less likely to cheat"".

    It's just giving objective statistical findings from the group that were surveyed. That's how science works. The scientific survey may not be any good in the way it was done methodologically- we don't know. But the point of doing these surveys is to produce data. It's not to 'say' to people 'this is how you should be'. That's the mistake Kasparian made. She's clearly NOT a scientist.

  • It's not an objective statistical finding unless you know more about the study.

    If I go out and ask the questions "Are you happy enough to stay in your marriage?" that would affect the answers as well as the data.

    If I were to go out and ask instead "Are you as happy as you should be in your marriage by your standards" that would swing the data another direction.

    The sizes of the samples from the age ranges and what specifically made a difference. It's not scientific if not done correctly.

  • god... this girl is so retarted

  • Wife is older...

    Although she is more accomplished and brings home the bacon, mostly because she is very likable, we both agree, I am much smarter....I wouldn't consider a younger woman and never have.

    26 years later and OMG she is so fuggin hot....and I look older than her.

  • so the part about women being smarter makes sense, BUT the part about them being younger makes no sense? Ana is getting her bias all over the floor.

  • uhhh duh anna..the answer is that their pussy is fresher, thats how we think!

  • ...women like older guys...be cause they have money , maturity...bla bla bla

  • i would like a wife older than me..smarter than me..and with more money:))...and of course ...big breasts:))

  • I agree with MrDragon1968

    Lost a lot of respect for Ana Kasparian.

  • Ana WTF do you have against the UK?

    I used to love you man! I DID!

  • The point of having a younger wife is that you can still have children when you are relatively old.

  • Man...!! Ana is so damn gorgeous, its freakin ridiculous.

  • I always thought studies said marriages are more successful when the woman was the older one.

  • I don't know why, but I find it funny whenever Cenk refers to Ana by her last name.

  • You mean like 9 years old like they do in Turkey?

  • I have seen studies that show the younger a woman is, but over 18, the less likely their kids are to have serious medical problems.

    That is why, in terms of evolution, men tend to go for the younger women.

  • I remember reading studies in University that show the ideal optimal age for a Woman to have a healthy child is between the ages of 16-18. Not entirely ideal for this day and age, but biologically speaking of course.

    There's also the fact that Men are able to have children at a much later age than Women are. Hence most societies have adapted to this and probably the reason why on average Men have been older than Women in most "family" units.

  • There's another interesting point. Given that some men can sometimes have a tendency to go running after a younger women after their wife gets past a certain age may also skew the figures for married couples of the same age. In a way, the report may actually show that men can be a bit shallow once they get past a certain age. But as always some women- like Kasparian get defensive and emotional if they hear something they could 'interpret 'as 'sexist' by making assumptions.

  • I just lost a lot of respect for Ana Kasparian- who's normally reasonably intelligent. I don't know the validity of the study, but if you read the article it's the journalist that embellishes it with a 'happier marriage'. All the study did was say that those two criteria exist more in longer lasting marriages. She's assuming a British University would twist facts in a scientific study emotionally for subjective reasons. Also- marriage 'structures' are DIFFERENT in the UK? Eh! How exactly?

  • Ana always sounds like a hater and bitter when they do stories of women relating to looks.

  • Here younger = more attractive and better sex

  • thats a good clip TYT keep pumpin em out

  • I don't buy the notion of women maturing faster than men. I know chicks of various ages and I believe they don't fully get their shit together until 30. Even then, they can still be a bit immature.

  • i think jr was right, no matter if your 25, or 55 the man is always more immature at heart.

  • Tv told you that.

  • Nope, life tells me that

  • She has nice titts ......... damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

  • That sounds about right.

  • It may have something to do with families -- children. Men tend to lag behind women when it comes to interest in starting a family.

  • It CRACKS me up that the intelligence thing didn't bother her...WHAT if that were flipped; marriages do better when the MAN is smarter/better educated. She would have lost her mind. Yet when it suggest the woman should be smarter she instantly "understands" that & has no problem.

    All this when she can"t handle some statistics that imply relationships work out better when the woman is younger.

    Her gender hypocracy is showing.

  • As they age past 35 women lose their interest in sex more than men do. This is the reason for mid-life crisis in men. Notice how it happens around the time the wives hit their menopause? A younger wife means the husband will be around 55 to 60 when she goes through menopause. By that time his sexual desires have calmed down some too.

  • Yeah, I could believe that study. I generally vibe better with younger, intelligent girls than older, dumber women. LOL...it goes without saying

  • Although I do find a brain on a woman better for a long term relationship. It's been shown in studies too that the sex life is better! Too lazy to get a source.....

  • No this is not true for every case but is true in the majority of cases so to each their own. Also Anna acted in that manor because of her emotional immaturity. Can't have something she doesn't strongly disagree with without getting really animated.

    *waits for female keyboard warriors to come out of the wood works*

    Lol I'm far from perfect btw and am only 5'8 at best. So flame away ladies if you need to self medicate. Gave you ammo to play with:)

  • It's because a man is afraid of his gf becoming old and unattractive before he does or at a more rapid rate. Also the older women try to use their age to gain leverage from arguments etc. Trust me I'm 26 and just broke up with a 31 yr old. I was like she looks fantastic now but in 5 yrs she might age horribly and might not even be able to have kids! Sorry just being honest. Women about 2-3yrs younger seems to work the best as I see it. Emotionally, maturity, lifestyle wise it's usually good

  • you know, after watching her enough, while i still think she is attractive. i would never date a women like her. she takes life to seriously. and she is invested in beliefs to much. women like that make great friends but not very fun partners. they are not very fun seducing ether. the slighest thing can set them off. very unpleasing

    but intelligent women are a plus, but not bull headed intelligent women and she falls in that catagory

  • It's definitely maturity IMO.

  • Growth in maturity doesn't ever end, Ana.

    One can also call it experience.

  • Why did Ana take this so seriously? Chillax, babe.

    You say age, and a woman goes crazy.

  • Comment removed

  • Man Sometimes Ana is just so over the top. The reason is purely developmental. Women Develop and MATURE faster then men. about 3 to 5 years in advance. SO MAYBE, two people that are on the same maturity scale, would be better suited for each other. I hope she reads this. Sometimes man she drives me nuts

  • WELL SAID, VERY WELL SAID.

    you hit the nail on the head and even though it was said before i think its important to say in again.

  • How about the fact that generally speaking men age better than women looks wise. I think beyond the maturity factor a 40 year old man can be at the peak in terms of his looks, where as women at 40 may start to come down. Let me say that I am not saying 40 year old women are not atteactive

  • another comment i totally agree with but from a totally different angle. i didnt actually think of that

  • Ana is so naive

  • ana has gone off on her feminist bullshit again.

  • Ana's hot.

    End of story.

  • Most women I know, including myself, are definitely happier with men who are around 5-8 years older.

  • thats may experience. i tend to date older women because its more difficult and i'm a young person and a very mature person. older women are more interesting, but there is a natural adversion to them actually taking me seriously. i think it about the person and what they need. and the average man is behind the average women in emotional mental development. but for men that are attractive, intelligent and mature, they should think less about this study, and go with women, not girls.

  • ana has a boyfriend? I want him to disappear.

  • If you're not a male Hispanic, you don't stand a chance. She has a taste for Latin men.

  • I am hispanic and a male...and freshly 18, ANA I LOVE YOU!

  • Lucky bum. She says she has only dated Latin guys.

  • Because younger women are hotter????

  • Ana is an idiot.

  • yes, but shes hot so she gets away with it.

  • Agreed, ana is a MEGABABE, do she can be as retarded as she wants.

  • Age affects the whole dynamic of the relationship, if the woman is older than the man she is at some point likely to feel like a mother to him in some way, or end up feeling like the older more dominant one and that doesn't do it for most women and can feel emasculating to the guy. If the woman is younger the man has the age dominance and that is easier for some women to accept. If the woman is smarter she will still be able to hold her own but is less likely to see him as a little boy.

  • A reasonable, well-thought out YouTube comment? Hurry children, look before it flies away!

  • I was going to say young women are hot and boobs are cool, but somehow that came out instead.

  • But there are also saying women should have men who are older and not as smart. Sooooo what's your point Ana?

  • epidemiological studies do not inform about causation - only correlation.

  • Hey guys, subscribe to my show, The Third Hour. A progressive talk show similar to The Young Turks

  • This is off subject, but I think TYT should know about this. The birther case that was supposed to go to trial in January. the one that all those birthers were hanging their hopes on was DISMISSED. Orly Taitz and fans are all claiming that someone got to the judge, of course. That this is proof that the courts are corrupt, etc.

  • I'm stunned that the research study didn't take performing good blow job on the husband into account.

  • I have known one fact for years, and constantly been unquestioned for around 10 years for me. That fact is that girls are attracted to older men, and on top of that men that are like their fathers.

    I have seen it a few times with people I know, My sister married a guy like our father, and divorced him for the same crap that my mom divorced my dad over. and a friend dumped her younger boyfriend and them around two months later married a guy 20-30 years her senior.

  • Haven't really been paying attention to this, but has Ana ever changed her mind on the show? Cenk has plenty of times, if im mistaken can I have a link.

  • damn, ana's boyfriend must be pretty old, no offense. how old is she... early to mid-20's? and hes 8 years older? so hes almost 30+? weird.

  • Well women are generally more into older men.

  • Men come and go...and usually in that order!

  • You gotta factor in that a woman's body clock is constantly ticking.

  • hahaha...ana is pissed oooooooff!

  • younger girl doesnt mean young

  • Man what's wrong with Ana she falls right into the study? What's her beef?

  • I think this study falls into the "No Shit, Sherlock" category.

  • if U R in your twenties, marry a twenty year old, then just trade her in every ten years. you will be happy, but broke. simple!

  • I like younger women because they are more fun, attractive, and less bitter towards men. But I think 10 years younger is the way to go....and MORE INTELLIGENT. Many older women may be smart and sexy, but they have lost their joie d'vivre.

  • I'm 16 and I'm mature as fuck.

  • The fact that you feel the need to say that on YouTube makes me seriously doubt your claim.

  • Well... how about turn it to the men being five years older?

    It doesn't have to be in the semen spewing eye of the cock all the time does it?

  • Sure, I'm just saying that it's kind of annoying when people use this kind of thing as an excuse to say that they are just not going to believe the study's results. The study is certainly valid with respect to the population being sampled from, at the very least. And in research on human populations you typically don't get external validity from one single study. Rather, it's done through meta-analyses of many studies, with samples taken from different populations in the different studies.

  • What about divorce rate for someone who is about the same age.

  • Anna knows damn well what they are saying about marrying a girl five years younger. It's easier to keep an uneducated, young girl around to follow your orders.

  • "If neither has been divorced...it fares better"

    WOW, real great scientific analysis there...LOL.

  • A brain becomes fully developed at age 25... I dunno if it's for both sexes but that is true..

  • My Marriage Algebra: 

    female_age=[(male_age/2)+7]

    simple it works.

    Also the female_age >18.

    PS:Anna think about a 55 year old.

  • Yeah, but the UK is going to be pretty representative of a typical developed Western nation. If you think it should be done in other countries as well, then fine, but this is no reason to just cavalierly dismiss the results. Incidentally, I know of a number of studies showing that in cultures ranging from tribal to developed men generally tend to be older than their spouses by at least several years, converging with these results and suggesting this is a biological and/or cultural universal.

  • The secret for having a long marriage is... not being a total douchebag.

    And that goes both ways. It takes two to tango.

  • Hah, I wouldn't be *that* harsh on her, she is smarter than the average hot chick. But yeah, she does have an annoying tendency, as I've also seen in other places, to dismiss studies for no real logical reason whenever she doesn't like the results or finds them counterintuitive. Yeah, she wouldn't make a good scientist; science is all about not prejudging what are "good" vs. "unacceptable" results of your research are going to be, and drawing conclusions from the data rather than intuition.

  • Anna... don't you know that when we have sex, we always like to ask "Who's your Daddy?"

    Maybe your man isn't hitting it right and can't ask you that question.

  • Why is Ana so butt hurt about this? She is like what... 28? I could see her with someone who is 33.

    The bottom line is... you will have a good marriage when men aren't emasculated (i.e. controlling crazy bitch of a wife) When men marry younger women, that doesn't happen as much.

  • just accept some parts are stupid about a survey, things based on coincidences are always going to be flawed if you try to explain why it is that way, or if you try to contort it, for example if you say "people who own houses life longer" this is false, but rooted from the survey that says people who have homes live longer, you can't turn things like this and contort it, however there could be some truth in it because homeless people (bums) live a lot shorter

  • there are studies done on this. men don't reach there peak until they are 35 yrs old while women peak at 25. of course there all exceptions but that fact is for the general public.

  • plain and simple... Males views females value to physical attraction, and younger females have more physical attraction to males... Females think they're value is based on how smart & have other non physical qualities, it's not. Females view males value in wealth, security, power. These are generalities that are true in the U.S. culture. And especially true for men who truly have wealthy and power (and sometimes fame). Look at every rich famous guy, most of them got hot young chicks. right?

  • "My boyfriend...."

    The fuck bitch????

  • I'm a guy and I agree with Ana.

  • Marriage structures are different in the UK? Wrong!

    The woman in this makes a fool of herself. She gets why its nice to have someone smart, but not younger? Younger women are more fertile, there's an evolutionary mechanism for preferring younger women. Younger women appear more attractive to a lot of men. Most marriages comprise an older man and younger woman.

    Also, I'm in my 20s and I see zero evidence that girls in their 20s are more intelligent or mature.

  • You see zero evidence that girls in their 20s are more intelligent or mature? Well then you agree with the "woman" then since she was resisting that same point introduced by the guy in dreads.

    And btw finding younger women attractive says nothing about whether a long term relationship will work. Once you make the choice of mate Ill assume that the woman was attractive enough to mate with in the first place..Unless of course one is a superficial boob that moves on as soon as a few lines appear.

  • Okay, all I was doing was pointing out what hadn't occurred to any of them: why a lot of men are attracted to younger women, and why most relationships comprise an older man and younger woman. Personally, I prefer older women and find younger women less sexy, but that's me--that's not the norm.

  • You worthless lickspittle

  • i just watched /watch?v=Nd4N7Cet2v0

    i mean WTF??

  • We all need to remember that correlation does not imply causation. Just because marrying younger woman is CORRELATED with marriage success, it does not mean that marrying younger woman CAUSES marriage success. This is just a preliminary research study, and more studies would need to be done to find out why this correlation was found.

  • I think a youthful nature is more accurate than literally X-years younger. Obviously most people act somewhere around their age so that makes sense but none of these studies are 100% applicable to everyone. They're loose guidelines at best. I hope no one bases their lives around them.

  • 5 years difference is just right.

  • Whilst it's true that women mature quicker than men mentally that's only evident during the teenage years(girls start maturing at around 11-12 whereas guys mature at around 13-14); eventually they even out. Though it would be stupid to assume that *all* guys mature slower than girls and vice versa.

  • "im not fox news, I just report."

    I know fox news is bull shit, but you don't "just report" cenk. (youre probably kidding). However, as far right as they are, you report just as left in your news. Don't you see the hypocrisy people? I mean honestly, bitching about republicans and loving the presidents "public option" is objective reporting?? C'mon people...wake up...most reporting these days is wayyyy to subjective. That is exactly why there is such a strong divide in this country.
