Men are likely to live longer if they marry a younger woman, new research suggests.??A man's chances of dying early are cut by a fifth if their bride is between 15 and 17 years their junior.??The risk of premature death is reduced by 11 per cent if they marry a woman seven to nine years younger.??The study at Germany's Max Planck Institute also found that men marrying older women are more likely to die early.??The results suggest that women do not experience the same benefits of marrying a toy boy or a sugar daddyNike air max.??Wives with husbands older or younger by between seven and nine years increase their chances of dying early by 20 per cent.??This rises to 30 per cent if the age difference is close to 15 and 17 years.??Scientists say the figures for men may be the result of natural selection ?C that only the healthiest, most successful older men are able to attract younger matesnike shox nz.??"Another theory is that a younger woman will care for a man better and therefore he will live longer," said institute spokesman Sven Drefahl. ??The study examined deaths between 1990 and 2005 for the entire population of Denmark.??
