As women, we ridicule and berate men for having a female companion half their age and are quick to assume their relationship is one sided with the men paying for everything.
We never call the men victims when they run out of money and the young girl moves on to someone else...we laugh and say they should have known better and it serves the men right for not being with someone age appropriate. We may have seen the same thing happen in LC's trip report...some are cheering him on, but probably wouldn't feel sorry for him if it all turned out badly....as women we feel the older man should have known better.

So, as the saying goes...."with age comes wisdom" and the young men are half the women's age...sooooooo.....
Why should it be any different for a older woman that should have known better?
Nice post. Refreshing to see you point these thigns out because after all, fair is fair.
