    SC>> I was chatting with a 42 year old guy just the other day who said   
    SC>> his wife left him for a 21 year old like it was a bad thing. Men   
    SC>> have been doing that for more decades than we have ever lived and   
       (.....)   
    NB> Sounds to me as though that could have been a definite possibility,   
    NB> that his wife could have been younger...  Of course, another   
    NB> possibility would be that /he/ was running around with younger women,   
    NB> but found it annoying when his wife used the same "sauce for the   
    NB> gander"....   
    SC> I like your "another possibility". I really didn't get that from him   
    SC> but I'm sure he wouldn't have admitted it if that was the case. I have   
    SC> heard said kind of men doing that then complaining when it happened to   
    SC> them though. Oh well. :-)   
      
   Ye olde "double standard" still oft applies....  in a number of   
   different ways...
