@NephTalks @LostViking85 @doodlate @Iwanme4skin @bbenw8 @don_tickels @BigTitMaster @greentexts_bot Here's a second study showing that there's a noticeable bump in the severity of depression for every 1-2 years age difference between couples. Still waiting on you to provide one though https://t.co/M8B6cZgYTA

@sensei9393 夫と妻の年齢差は、妻が年上のカップルにおいて抑うつ症状の増加と関連していることが示された。さらに、抑うつの程度は、夫に比べて妻の方が高かった。 https://t.co/CNZQ7uXXIF

@Raul_Aztec @ZubyMusic @JannaM59 https://t.co/xwgSiZ9nLm https://t.co/28STKgFT6d Easy answer to confused minds, "woman like older man and man like younger woman", it's just as simple as that, people are delusional if they wanna change these facts because they would be fighting against nature itself.
