Ok I like women 18-25 and it seems that the women who hit on me and flirt with me are like mid 30's to mid 50's . I think it is nasty to a point. Older women have always been attracted to me since I was a teen but now this is kinda getting creepy. So why all of a sudden is it so much more so now? If it because of to and the promoting of programs and movies that are about the lives of older women dating much younger guys?
I also experienced that when I was in my teens. Older men used to like me (upto now) but I don't really need a father-like image in my life! Unfortunately, I'm still single and guys of same range as me don't get attracted to me. Not sure why. LOL!
So cheer up.. maybe someday you'll be able to find the perfect one. You're not alone ;)
You're in the marriage zone. xD At least that is how guys see it. Younger women can be counted on for casual relationships, but as women approach and pass 30, many (not all) tend to start thinking about marriage and kids. If a man doesn't want any o' that, he'll stick to younger women who not only aren't interested in kids, but who are looking for an older, man who is more "mature". (And by mature, they mean financially secure -- ambitious and upwardly mobile). - A month ago

Yeah marrying age. But when I was in early 20's guys tend to label me as a marrying type of a girl maybe bec I am not that playful during that time. It could be the impression I am giving away to men. Maybe same case to the Grayman. Not really sure though ;) - A month ago
I like younger women because I do not like the baggage of ex-husbands and or kids. As well as many women 25 + feel they have been misled or wronged in some past relationship and take it out on who ever they meet next. My life is not going to be playing Dr. Phil with someones issues from there past, younger women seem not to play the " I know how all men are" card. - A month ago

Well, there's your answer. older women don't want guys who are moping around about their missed chances with "the one" either. maybe you should expand your dating criteria to at least include your own age. http://www.girlsaskguys.com/images/btn-subcom-up.gif i'll also bet you like younger women simply because their young and won't go south for a another 2-3 decades. but what do you expect? you like girls who are 10 years younger than you and girls who like you are 10 years older than you. - A month ago

If you're weirded out by the cougars, imagine how weirded out the girls in high school and their first years of college must be by you... - A month ago
I think it definitely is affected by what is the common "fad" of the moment and prevalent in Hollywood maybe. You see a lot of celebrities dating younger guys i.e. Madonna, Demi Moore. Then, it seems to create a phenomena in the dating scene. Women want to feel "younger and more attractive" so targeting a younger male will fulfill that desire or need.
However, I think in some isolated cases, these women mesh better with a younger male. At the same time, he appeals to her in some fashion and it works out.
I guess you missed the 40's and 50's in the age grouping huh. Please read the whole question before giving an answer just based on the first two sentences. - A month ago

I read it all. The thing is even a girl in her early 40's makes you a hypocrite considering that your interest is girls way younger then yourself. if you're interested in women 10 years younger then yourself then what is so wrong with women 10 years older then yourself? You're just as creepy to highschool girls as "cougars" are to you. It's all I'm saying. - A month ago
I think it's seen as more sexy for whatever reasons recently in society, so it's the "in thing" now. I would like to think it's a fad, but it may actually start becoming more and more common as divorces skyrocketed, women are no longer typically married in their 40's and 50's, they like to feel younger and sexier, so having sex with a younger guy is seen as really hot. It's almost like the guys equivalent of "taking a girls virginity" - being kind of a bragging thing.
Just look at how many stories are out there about women teachers seducing underage students. Before, I think it was because it as seen as so unusual, but now, it just seems like people are accepting the idea more.
Generally, I used to see a lot of really creepy 50 year old guys hitting on my 20 something year old girl friends. Generally speaking, I don't see many cougars where I am, - I don't have to deal with many creepy older women... but I'm sure they're out there - just not the places I go to.
Some women just never found the right man. Now since they are so old they want a young boyfriend to make them feel young and relive their younger days. It's a common fad these days...
Used to be that the man would go out to work, the woman would stay home with the 2.4 children waiting for the moment that hubby walked through the door so she could greet him with a cocktail and make...
Women are ridiculed or ostracized for not being in a relationship. We have that ever-ticking biological clock. We are ridiculed if we are unmarried after a certain age. It seems okay for men to be...
