Women become less attractive after 22(2)

这些数据可能是十分消极的,但是瑞德先生同时也澄清说这不意味着所有过了22岁的女人都会被男人束之高阁."这只是人们意见的一个调查,而不是说他们就会这么做."他对NPR解释说,"当你真正看着人们做什么的时候,那才是现实.因此这些40岁左右的老男人,他们可能会鼓起勇气做的只是约30、35岁的女人出去而已."

On his blog, OKData, he delves into this pattern even further, explaining that as men get older they tend to search for younger and younger women. 'The median 31-year-old guy, for example, sets his allowable match age range from 22 to 35 - nine years younger, but only four years older, than himself,' he writes. 'This skewed mindset worsens with age; the median 42-year-old will accept a woman up to 15 years younger, but no more than three years older.'

在他的博客"丘比特数据"上,他更深入地分析了这个模式.他解释说,"男人越老越喜欢年轻的女人.31岁的中年男人,可能会找22~35岁的女人（比他们年轻9岁,而只大4岁）.而这种扭曲的心态会随着年龄的增长而加剧：42岁的男人可以接受比他们年轻15岁的女人,但是不能比他们大超过3岁."

Apart from data about age, Mr Rudder's book also details a number of other fascinating ways we interact and perceive each other. 'If there's one thing I sincerely hope this book might get you to reconsider, it's what you think about yourself,' he writes in the introduction. 'Because that's what this book is really about. '

　除去关于年龄的数据,瑞德先生的书中还详细介绍了一些人们互动和相互认知的方法."如果说我想通过这本书告诉读者什么,那么就是,我希望你重新审视自己."他在序言中如是写道,"因为这就是这本书的真正意义."
