I suppose you've both seen the writings of Alan Carter (http://the-programmers-stone.com/about/) and it seems to me that it just might be a way of getting these two seemingly differing viewpoints aligned.
If stress is the biggest factor then age or marital status might have very little to do with it. At least directly. Married people might have learned to handle stress well and younger people might be less affected by it.
That is to say, you both might have seen the "less stress affected" crowd and drawn conclusions about it.
