The rise of Ben 10 in campus

There is a certain culture that has set root in institutions of higher learning: junior girls always go for senior guys. These leaves the junior men scrambling for crumbs, the lower quartile that did not make it to the arms of the seniors. On the other side, are the senior girls, who are either married, spending money with people’s fathers or courting the cold as their mates make the gold-rush for younger women. This leaves these two groups with no one but themselves to sate their needs. 

The younger campus man is slowly becoming the fan favourite as opposed to the senior guys. This is because; 

They are not demanding
They understand your schedule and appreciate that you are mature and busy. While they may occasionally flood your phone with texts, they understand that you will not be available unlike older men who expect you to inform them about everything, down to your washroom schedule.

They have reached
As opposed to settling for younger women that were passed up, they have reached by bagging older women. As such, the dynamic is a lot between idolizing their women and giving themselves silent fist bumps for a fete not easy to achieve

They don’t have girlfriends or wives
Honestly, commitment is the last thing on their minds. They are looking for a quick itch to scratch before they carry on with their uneventful lives that involve deciding what colour of earphones goes with their sweatshirts. Also, it is highly unlikely that you will have to deal with a cray girlfriend or wife somewhere threatening you to leave her man alone.

They know their position
The greatest catalyst of failed campus relationships is that people often overrate their importance and positions in each other’s life. More often than not, a campus relationship is a contract, a plane that crashes before it leaves the airfield. Younger men understand that they are just another stop to the destination, a necessary convenience.

They are young and devoted
Simple as that. Just like a younger woman fetches higher market value, so does a younger man. They make the perfect arm candy and will go above and beyond to prove that they deserve your attention and presence.


As such, the younger man is growing more popular as the days go by and the society becomes increasingly permissive. To the senior girl looking for someone to warm them one last time, there couldn’t be an easier and better pick than the agile, uncomplicated and way enthusiastic younger man.
