    In movies and tv shows, men are always matched up with younger women. And those women are always out of the league of those man. And those man always have to look rudiculous, geek, nerds and semi-stupid. There's a pattern that seems to be very hard to break.

    For exemple, the new show 'Love' on Netflix; the dude look like a total nerd. Or another exemple, in 'How I met your mother', Ted and the other guys always get girls way out of their league. In cinema, Jennifer Lawrence is always matched up with man 20-35 years older than her. And the exemples are infinite.
