    Not trying to be weird, but to understand - roughly what age range and location are you talking about?

    I’m a divorced 52yo woman living in the Chicago suburbs and this is news to me.

      I’ve never heard of it before either. It doesn’t seem weird to me. Just, the assertion that it’s overwhelmingly common does not sound right.

      My frame of reference is 30-45 year olds in Texas, but also everyone’s parents who are 70+ now. What do people do in Chicago?
