Is there a biological, or other, reason for the strange fact that men reach their sexual prime in their early 20s but women do so in their early 30s?

I don’t think this is biological but rather cultural.

Compared to today’s standards, the marriages of our parents and grandparents sucked. Men were controlling, women thought they had to submit so they did. Once I got older and actually started to get to know these people that I came from, I had a really disturbing realization.

My grandparents are horrible people. All of them. On all three sides of my family.

They played nice for the grandkids when they were young but once they hit 25 or so, the kid gloves come off and they start laying in with judgment, bullying, conditionality of love, the whole business.

It makes perfect sense for me to see that women that finally come off of their first marriage in their 30s and 40s feel confident and sexy. Whereas the guys are feeling beaten down by the world so they don’t have anything left for sex. Americans have been steadily bickering away family wealth ever since the second world war ended.

It won’t be Trump that makes America great again, it’ll be the collective realization of Millenials that families matter and that we should be focusing on them. It might take us until our thirties / forties to finally settle down and get started, but I predict that families of the 2020s will be way stronger than the ones of the 2000s.
