I would say that most of the stigma is after they enter the relationship, especially when there are major age differences of 10-plus years. They're labelled gold diggers for that.
The others are pretty much of a similar age. I can also see some patterns between couples or survivors who were also serving in the army too, or they stayed home to take care of the family. I can definitely see some very general patterns there. Being unemployed for pretty much 30 or 40 years, they are also carrying another stigma. It's not like the gold digger kind of stigma. I think definitely there would be some different labels or stigmas surrounding this population.
Thank you for the question.
