Words like all/ever/never should be hardly used. My buddies sister is in her early 20's. I remember when she was born. To me she is just a baby. A foul mouthed baby. And when she posts things of sexaul nature on FB, it gives me the heebie jeebies.

Nope. Prefer gals my age.

Hell, the way they are uused to market Everything, I am attracted to 20-year olds!!!!
And we Hope that older men have become better people.....it's uphill, at best.....

Healthy young people are aesthetically attractive to the opposite sex regardless of gender; but as I get older, it takes more than physical appearance to appeal to me.

While I appreciate beauty, it's impossible to get past the fact that most twenty-somethings are younger than my children now.

Love sucks, hope is dead. Most men never grow out of club snatch. This is why homosexual relationships are more likely to be satisfying. The more I age, the more I realize that love may not be a thing at all, its a temporary mechanism of human breeding.

Well, my husband is 17 years younger than me, so there goes the "all men" theory.

In my 20s, guys my age were impossibly immature. So I dated men up to 13 years older. My daughter had the same problem in her 20s.

Today three-quarters of American men are overweight or obese (and 65% of women).

Finding a fit, active man who can keep up with me is difficult. Often I date men who are 10 years younger.

We are attracted to young, vibrant, people...their vitality and attraction are obvious to all, but that is an appreciation of their beauty, and is a natural human reaction, . That goes for both sexes, I can see the beauty in young men and woman alike, and appreciate that beauty. That doesn’t mean that I actually expect them to find me attractive in return, or even wish them to do so. I think it’s too sweeping to generalise and talk about “all” though, in any context, there are always exceptions , especially when discussing anything as subjective as human attraction. Some young women may be attracted to older men, others not. Our preferences and tastes can change throughout our lives, depending on circumstance and experience. There will probably always be some men who prefer younger women, even though they themselves are old.

Answer to number one is yes. But decorum dictates that one shall not ogle.

I've always been attracted to men 10-15 years older.

Sure hope the part about men is wrong. I've heard a lot of men say that women in their 20s are too immature and needy.

If you think we are hardwired for reproduction and 20s is the apex of reproductive capacity of women...
Of course cultural and mental traits can override this.
Too young women (early 20s) catch my eyes, but soon my mind reject as too young, probably not interesting enough to be worthy.
And the opposite with woman on the late 20s/early 30s. That catch my eyes and they look like interesting a lot.
But this is a first reaction half a second after it is gone, for both.

Get my phone! I call bullshit!

Like them older aware of cougar they hit on me and I'm in 70 s want to share my oxygen honey lol

Don't agree with this statement. I like to have sex with guys in the 23 to 30 range. An older man may attract me intellectually - maybe.

Girls learn how to walk before boys, talk before boys, and mature before boys. So they tend to be attracted to 'older men', rather than boys the same age or younger. Boys discover that girls younger than they are , are attracted to them. So, their first sexual experiences tend to be with younger girls. It all has to do with the female maturing faster than the male. It's all biology! Nothing new here. But I wonder how much money they wasted on this study?

This doesn't sound like a legitimate study or at the very least not well done, maybe a very small control group. Too generalized. What qualifies as older? 5, 10, 20 years? I have, with the exception of once, dated around my age or younger, up to 20 yrs younger. But it isn't the age that attracts me and I think that's true for most people, male or female.

I fancy who I fancy and always have

Madison Avenue has sold us on the beauty of youth. Even wrinkle cream ads feature models that are too young to have wrinkles.

Because women have a tendency to become overweight and as a rule do not age as well as men. This does not apply to all women but generally. The Cary Grant or George Clooney image is what men can sometimes look forward too.

Can you post the study? There are biological reasons for this in the same way mammals, without viable mating alternatives will mate with siblings and even offsprings. The older men is about protection which is a fundamental female evolutionary desire. Not me...3 out of three fellas all younger
I do the protecting around here roars

Not from my experience - not at all.

It might have something to do with genetics, how women want an older later in life and men prefer women in their 20s. Simply, it might something to do with filling there needs. I think I might be having a mid life crisis since I desire more women there 20s, instead of ones closer to my age or older.

Of course men are attracted to 20 somethings, what's not to be attracted too! Plus I also find a lot of older women quite attractive as well. And I can say from recent personal experience the sex is just as good either way.....

Can't escape what's in your DNA.

I think some of these studies are skewed in some way. To say "all" is kind of presumptuous, like maybe they're trying to frighten or discourage people. I've seen all sorts of couplings.
