The article only examines the issue in terms of what “makes biological sense” for men. It discusses the fertility of women and advantages of “going for” women of different ages but neglects to highlight any of the biological advantages from a female perspective. It ignores the fact that to ensure the highest rates of evolutionary success it doesn’t make sense for 16 year olds to procreate with much older, less fertile males. It questions why men aren’t sleeping with 16 year olds, ignoring the fact that 16 year olds choose who they sleep with.
