It's weird that the obvious interpretation of the 'single by demographic group' graph isn't discussed at all. Specifically, there's a bulge of single men at the bottom of the age distribution and a bulge of single women at the top.
While the average age difference of married couples isn't extreme, I would suspect that when you start getting towards the 'margins' of sexual desirability and social opportunity to meet people, the age differences skyrocket.
This seems rather more likely than the idea that there are hordes of Chads each dating multiple women.
It might also be a good thing for guys to remember; some of the advantages of still-on-the-market older men plundering down into their age group (e.g. 30-somethings dating 20-somethings) might be fairly easily simulated (dressing properly, housekeeping, having a job, not being a horny weirdo all the damn time - or at least not showing it quite so much). From experience a lot of guys in their teens and 20s are pretty rough around the edges.
