In the following paper a well-posedness of an age-structured two-sex population model in a space of Radon measures equipped with a flat metric is presented. Existence and uniqueness of measure valued solutions is proved by a regularization technique. This approach allows to obtain Lipschitz continuity of solutions with respect to time and stability estimates. Moreover, a brief discussion on a marriage function, which is the main source of a nonlinearity, is carried out and an example of the marriage function fitting into this framework is given.
