Experts warn that settling down with a ‘toy boy’ can reduce a woman’s life expectancy.
However, older men with younger wives appear to live for longer.
Researchers said that while cougars, older women in their 30s and 40s who date much younger men, may believe that having a younger partner will help to keep them youthful the opposite appears to be true.
The phenomenon is epitomised by celebrities like Demi Moore, whose husband Ashton Kutcher is 16 years younger than her.

How can they accurately say that while Demi is still alive? (8+/

Yes but it pushes her way up the rankings for those playing the dead pool, so how far behind Lindsey Lohan and Amy Winehouse is she now? :D

I'd say lifestyle plays more a part in mortality than how old your partner is.

A young partner has more energy so can exhaust you faster? mind those pesky heart attacks!

I would have thought it was down to higher anxiety over wrinkles, "what if he finds a woman closer to his age?", "does my bum look big in this?", having to get up earlier to put the make up on before he wakes up. etc.

Look at the examples cited. I'd wager that Demi would outlive those other two.

They are not representative of the population tho.
Drugs being able to reduce your life span doesn't mean younger lovers can't as well

It also doesn't mean that younger lovers can.

I know that they might or might not. but the fact that some younger people have a shorter life span is not relevant.

in any case : Toyboy! :twisted:

How about some older people with younger partners living just as long as anybody else? Could that be relevant?
