How come men prefer younger women?

[Anonymous]

it seems like there are many men today that prefer their significant other to be many years younger than them and not older than them.

[MotorcycleMan]

Well, in general they look better, they are not as set in their ways, they are more active, and they are more appreciative because younger men tend to be not as caring/attentive/wealthy/experienced.

We want youth and beauty they match up better with us because you women are so much more mature than us. We want to be able to have kids with you. Women our age can’t

[Asker]

Yessss exactly! My husband is older than me and we definitely talked about expanding our family

[Iron_Man]

That is so awesome I’m very happy for you this makes me excited too because that means I have a chance

Well I would say my range right now is around 21 to 27 in preference. But if a 19 year old into me and we had solid chemistry, I'd probably say yes.

Younger girls are usually much better looking because they're more active. Older women tend to just let it go and not give a shit. They just use the logic "Oh there are more important things than physical attraction; I want him to love me for who I am as a person."

Younger women are more carefree and not set in their ways. They're also usually have less experience and don't blame all men for every shitty relationship they've had. They also usually don't require an "x amount of income" or financial stability which is as it should be. Loving someone for just the main qualities. Money can always be figured out. It speaks more about a girl that is able to be with and stick with you at your low than one that got you at your best.

That being said, if an older woman has all those qualities... cares for her body and works out often, has similar views, interests, goals, way of communicating, sense of humor, etc... I see no reason why I wouldn't be with her. I could be with a 40 year old if she had those qualities.

Women mature emotionally, sooner and younger than guys. A 30 year old man tends to be at the same emotional maturity level as a 22 year old woman. Plus a lot of guys are in denial about their aging and still view themselves as though they were in their early 20's so they tend to seek out younger women. It's also an ego thing. I admit that even at 61 when a much younger girl flirts with me even if just playfully it's a huge boost to my ego which lately has been found rather wanting in that department.

The increased number apparently being with much younger is due mostly to women delaying partnering up, marrying >30. Two similar cars on the lot, one older, with higher mileage, dripping oil vs. an almost new trade in and the cost is about the same. Which would you choose? There is all the maturity stuff, etc. but is appears that the instinctive attraction is fertility. It is breakfast, umm you are hungry; would you choose the farm fresh eggs in frig or the dusty bottle of picked eggs off the shelf?

For the same reason women want rich men, tall me. Etc...

Biology.


If a man wants children, why would he be attracted to women to old to have them?

If a man has been looking for a family for years, when should he give up dating entirely? I wasn't comfortable dating women much younger so I stopped looking in my 30's sad to have to give up on having a family or a relationship, but it wouldn't be fair to her, I'd be resentful if I had to fulfill all the stupid social rules (like always having to be the one to initiate a relationship) men have to bow to, but not get what I wanted (sex with someone I find attractive and children)

When I was younger I was often turned down by women my own age that prefered older men with money, I never berated them for their preference.

Simple, I can say this one from experience. The moment I ended up in my 30s, women in their mid to late 20s started throwing themselves at me. Meanwhile, women who are now in their 30s, who frequently looked over us when we were in our 20s, are getting desperate to make babies and play house, and they don't actually care for the person, they just want to check the marriage and babies box.

Supply and demand. Why should I end any freedom and "settle down" when I don't want to nor do I have to.

Men have the same choices in their 30s that women had in their 20s. Funny how that pendulum swings both ways.

[Sarahr123]

Because they’re attracted to their youth. Don’t worry about it too much I mean some young boys prefer middle aged or even old women.

I personally prefer men older than me so I hope to be married by 26 because I think the market will close my late twenties if I was someone 5-6 years older than me. I mean most men seem to marry before 35 so if I am 26 he should be 32 ish.

[Overmind]

Not all of us. Younger women have a very unattractive quality (some not all) & that's being confused about what they want. They love to play silly games & expect you to go along. That doesn't always work out by the way; I'll cold approach another woman right there on the spot. Payback for when I was younger & too dumb to understand what was going on, that was torture ladies! :)

[Anonymous]

The older a woman is the more relationships she's had. And she generally blames the men for every failing in them. Ergo generally the older a woman is the more bitter she is towards men.
Young women are a blank canvas they learned to be jaded yet. They just like having fun.
Which would you want. Lol

[rondon06]

In general men are biologically designed to be attracted to youth & beauty but it all depends on the age of the man. I'm in my early 20s & like younger women & women of similar age to me but at the same time women in their 30s & 40s are also very attractive to me but they're still young compared to much older men. I'm surprised by how attractive some women in their 30s & 40s actually are 🤤🤩

[Fromdusktilldawn]

Not sure. I am attracted to younger girls faces only, they look cute but on the other side they are immature, b! tchy and don't have a really female body yet. Girls older than me mostly attract me through their body and they are more reasonable in the mind

[DeltaCharlieEcho]

Because women become increasingly unpleasant to be around when they get older. The prime age for women is 22 and you become less valuable everyday after that.

[FilmGuy93]

More fertile, better energy, less emotional baggage.

[Yourfriend2021]

It seems like younger women are more active, cute, and not set in their ways with crazy ideas and personalities.

[DaveToo]

We want to live in the past where our own youth resides.

[Redstang88]

Don’t know, always preferred girls my age or a bit older

[Louquin95]

Not all men but I like dating women my age

[Asker]

Thank you

[dudeinohio]

I dunno... that's the way i've always felt... dunno why

[moviedude714]

I would think that's been human nature throughout history

[beefy40]

A 18 year old women looks more attractive for men. Most women don't like younger looking guys, it's programmed in us.

[bamesjond0069]

Younger women are superior in every way pretty much.

[anylolone]

Same reason why women actually prefer younger men, if you measure their physiological responses.

[In_Trance]

Men are attracted to youth; women are attracted to stability

[Avicenna]

Fertility and less likely to already have kids

[Luckycharms12]

That's not always true some men go for older women

[JesseJayNeak]

It's called a preference for a reason

[xiphantom]

admiring their firm bodies

[Anonymous]

Its alwways been this way

[COMMODOREII]

Healthier kids

[Jamie05rhs]

I do not.

[Diversity_Hire]

That's nothing new.
