Perhaps the myth of the midlife crisis is true- men are more likely to cheat on their partners just before they approach a significant birthday, with 49 year-olds signing up to extra-marital affair website Ashley Madison in unexpectedly large numbers.
也許中年危機的“傳說”是真的——就在男人剛過了人生中重要的生日之前,他們更可能欺騙自己的妻子,Ashley Madison外遇網(wǎng)上出人意料的有大批49歲的人注冊為用戶。
Perhaps this spike in cheating is in response to worrying about becoming old and undesirable - or having the rise in libido typified by the midlife crisis.
也許外遇的這種峰值是對于變老和不再被人需要的擔憂的回應——或是中年危機典型的性欲增加的表現(xiàn)。
Other big spikes were seen at age 33/34 and age 44.
另幾個峰值是33或是34歲和44歲。
The 40s are the hardest time40幾歲最不好過
This study, which took place in three countries, surveying thousands of people, indicates that it is.
在三個國家展開的這項研究中,成千上萬參與調查的人都表示這是真的。
There is a steady downhill trajectory in wellbeing for most people, starting in their late teens, and staying low until their late 40s, where it starts to increase again.
對于大多數(shù)人來說,在他們告別少年時都會開始一個幸福安樂指數(shù)既定下降的軌道,在他們快50歲的時候保持著很低,然后才會再次上升。
The lead researcher of the study, Terence Cheng of the University of Melbourne, said "Human happiness hits the lowest point around the ages of 40 to 42".
首席研究者——墨爾本大學的特倫斯·鄭說:“在40到42歲的時候,人們的幸福值到達史上最低?!?/div>
This would indicate that the midlife crisis is real.
這表明了中年危機確有其事。
Men tend to make up for it with cars, clothes and yes, affairs男人試圖用好車、服飾來彌補,當然了,還有外遇
The term 'midlife crisis' was thought up by psychologist Elliot Jaques in 1965. He described it as “the adult encounter with the conception of life to be lived in the setting of an approaching personal death”.
“中年危機:這個詞是由埃利奧特·杰奎斯在1965年提出的。他描述為“成年人遭遇的,接近死亡的既定中的生活概念?!?/div>
We think of it as generally characterised by middle-aged men feeling mortality's cold grip and trying to escape death by indulging in sports cars, inappropriate clothing and young girlfriends.
我們把此看作是通常中年男子感到死亡的冷血魔爪伸向自己時,他們通過迷戀跑車、不相稱的衣服和小女友,來試圖逃避死亡的一種特征。
This is a caricature of the problem- but perhaps men at the end of each decade feel that much closer to death, and decide to reclaim their life by having affairs.
這是該問題的一種諷刺繪圖——但是也許每十年底,男人都會覺得離死亡越來越近,并決定以外遇的方式重活一次。
