Well, there’s several reasons. For one thing, I think it’s a prescription for social disorder: if you tell young men, “The girls you grew up with can have relationships and families now, but you have to wait another twenty years”, you’re going to wind up with something that resembles, well, sharia. But the other reason is that I doubt that many older men would really be interested. When you’re in your ’40s or ’50s, nearly every 22-year-old of either sex is pretty immature. I’m a man in my early ’50s and, yeah, I know some young women that are pretty cute and all, and if I were single maybe I wouldn’t mind a fling or two. But a relationship with one of them? No way! They’d drive me crazy.
