Hypergamy

Hypergamy (colloquially referred to as "marrying up") is a term used in social science for the act or practice of marrying someone who is wealthier or of higher caste or social status than oneself.
The word "hypogamy"〔not to be confused with the botanical term ''hypogamous''.〕 typically refers to instances of the inverse occurring: marrying a person of lower social class or status.
==Prevalence==
Forms of hypergamy have been practiced throughout history, including in India, modern China 〔三高男〕 and imperial China, ancient Greece, the Ottoman Empire and feudal Europe.
Today most people marry their approximate social equals, and in much of the world hypergamy is felt to be in slow decline: for example, it is becoming less common for women to marry older men. However, even in relatively gender-equal societies it is accepted that young women will often partner with powerful older men.
