Why do millennial men give younger women special treatment?

[Alwayreckles93]

[Anonymous]

It is important to avoid making generalizations about entire generations or assuming that all millennial men give younger women special treatment. Individuals' behavior and attitudes can vary greatly based on personal experiences, cultural influences, and individual values.

However, in some cases, there may be reasons why some individuals, including millennial men, may give younger women special treatment. These reasons can include:

1. Cultural norms and expectations: Societal norms and expectations around gender roles and dynamics can influence how individuals treat each other. Some cultures may place a premium on youth and beauty, leading to preferential treatment for younger women.

2. Power dynamics: Age and experience differences can create power imbalances in relationships. Some individuals may use special treatment as a way to exert control or feel superior in relationships with younger women.

3. Personal preferences: Individual preferences and attractions can vary, and some people may naturally gravitate towards individuals who are younger than them.

4. Insecurity or validation-seeking: Some individuals may seek validation or boost their self-esteem by seeking attention and approval from younger individuals.

It's important to note that these reasons are not exclusive to millennial men, and individuals from different generations can exhibit similar behaviors. It's crucial to approach relationships and interactions with respect, equality, and consent, avoiding generalizations and recognizing the importance of mutual understanding and shared values.

Seeing as we are talking about the general inclinations of a population that dictate what people without a conviction of any rules to the contrary.

The question is why do younger women, tolerate older married men? What are they expecting to get out of it? its obvious men are programed to spread their seed as widely as possible. So that means any woman the younger the better.

But the woman must have some desire for support or value for her larger investment.

How is it that a woman can see an older married guy as offering anything if not for the idea he might marry and remain with her instead? An idea that is silly on its face as to do so would prove he is not trustworthy.

But also presuppose a culture that would let him.

"Its obvious men are programed to spread their seed as widely as possible. So that means any woman the younger the better." With the way it's worded comes across has having pedophilia tendencies. An age limit would have been a good thing.

[Opinion Owner]

@MysteriousDarkness I do not imagine the the word woman could include a child.

[Apple1996]

Millennial and older generation men are all just disrespectful assholes. They treat young women better to manipulate them into putting up with their bs since they know older women won't deal with it.

I stay very far away from these older aged men for relationships and friendships since they are only trying to use women. I'll stick to only hanging around gen z

[Alwayreckles93]

Im 30 and I wouldn't even date a 37 year old ewww way to odl to be my dad.

[Alwayreckles93]

I meant he i old enough to be my dad.

[Apple1996]

I don't blame you. They are for real bad men

[Apple1996]

I couldn't ever see myself with someone way older. Maybe a year or two at most

[Apple1996]

@WanderingLoveWizard I think it's that those guys give off old dad vibes

[WanderingLoveWizard]

@Apple1996 Old dad vibes 😂
Sucks to be them I guess

[Alwayreckles93]

@WanderingLoveWizard What are youoffended because old men like you want to chase useless younger woman?
What do they have to offer at the table. Im 30 but people tell me i look 18 . I own a paid off houe a paid off truck im living debt free. What about you? I bet you are full of debt.

[WanderingLoveWizard]

@Alwayreckles93 If you're gonna troll, at least do it well. You make it too obvious

[Mansearching]

I've treated every woman with respect. But thats me. Even though we're 20 years apart, if we were together (hypothetically) even includes @alwayreckles93 respect will always be first on list to do.

[Apple1996]

@Mansearching yeah you are a bit older then millennial so not as bad but still some of your generation can be disrespectful. It really depends

[Mansearching]

I agree on that note. Some can be very rude.

[Mansearching]

@alwayreckles93 pardon? Hey im 16yr older, yes. I'm in debt, yes. Do i pay all my bills yes. Some are self inflicted and some aren't. Please don't blast people who are in debt.

[WanderingLoveWizard]

@Mansearching Anyone who's doing anything with their life has debt, don't worry about it.
The only debt I have is a mortgage, but even billionaires have debt. They take out loans for business ventures when they don't wanna pay it all at once.
The only people who don't have debt are children and old people (and spoiled rich kids who got everything from mommy and daddy)

[Apple1996]

@WanderingLoveWizard don't know about that I'm not in any debt lol
Me and my husband don't buy things unless we have money for it

[WanderingLoveWizard]

@Apple1996 So I'm guessing you and your husband don't own a house?
Debt isn't a bad word. It's just money that you still own on something. It doesn't mean "in debt", which is a totally different thing

[WanderingLoveWizard]

*owe lol

[WanderingLoveWizard]

If you have bills, you have debt.
If you dont have bills, then you're a child or an old person

[WanderingLoveWizard]

"In debt" means you have debt that you can't afford to pay off. Anyway, I'm done talking about this stupid topic

[Apple1996]

@WanderingLoveWizard we did in the past but not anymore cuz of moving so often. It's cheaper to rent and save money for a house later on.
Debt is fine and everything but it's not for me. I don't want the bills every month and it's easier just to pay in full

[WanderingLoveWizard]

@Apple1996
Hey if you can do that, more power to you. And I'm not knocking you for not owning a house. I didn't mean it like that lol.
My only point is saying someone has debt isn't an insult or an indicator of how well someone is doing

[Alwayreckles93]

@Mansearching I apologize fornyou its okay. You always treated me with respect on here. As you can see wanderlovewizard started by attacking me insluting me.

[Alwayreckles93]

@WanderingLoveWizard No one invited you here live me alone. Yes I do have bills just utility bills. I work my ass off ti live the life i have. I don't care about family it is meaningless. I've mist funurals , weddings , birthdays. Let me tell you at the end off the day no family is going to care about you . If I live the luxury lifestyle i have its because of my hard work. Unlike you at your age what a shame still trying to pay off mortage and cars wow you should had finish paing those things off years ago. No parents give me money. I've been working for years I dont buy useless expensive crap. My sister she is your same age guess what she is a looser for living in an apartment she ask me if I could let her borrow money but i dont haveto pay for loosers mistakes.

[Alwayreckles93]

@WanderingLoveWizard For example do you really think Eva Longoria woke up one day and she became rich lol No I bet she woke up super early in the morning to work in order to reach the top of the mauntian. The time period when i was young everyone else was living the world partying and drink and spend money while i pick up extra shifts I was working all day and night. If i live th lifestyle its thanks to my hard work. I bet you are a sinner living the world getting drunk i bet you have tattoes. Im a deboted christian. I LIVE MY LIFE BETTER THEN YOU! If you were a LDS member of the church I would made sure your ass would be excommunicated!

[Alwayreckles93]

@Mansearching Honestly most people your age group attend to act a lot more civilized and respectful. I am not sure people my own age are always attacking each other envy and I see a lot of competition people in my generation. Just look at the way this grown old ass 37 year old men attacked me and harassed me.

[zeitgeist057]

lol who is a dad at 7 years old?

[zeitgeist057]

@WanderingLoveWizard some people don't have debt because they don't buy things they can't afford, and don't spend money they don't have. I don't have debt, never have, and I slept in the streets or on couches for years, or shared houses with lots of people to be able to afford it. I've also had a full life and traveled the world, but I didn't do it borrowing money or by having rich parents. I just live within my means.

[MysteriousDarkness]

@alwayreckles93
You are 30 and wouldn't date a 37 year old guy because you think he is old enough to be your dad. He would have been 7 when you were born. There is zero logic in your thinking.

[DizzyDesii]

A lot seem focused on the woman’s youth, fertility, naiveness (ability to easily manipulate) and relatable immaturity. Either way I’d find it pretty creepy if its like a 10+ age gap

[Alwayreckles93]

Girl same lol.

[DizzyDesii]

I dont trust people like that. I get pedo/groomer vibes

[Berethor]

I don't think that it's just millenial men, most men prefer young women over old women.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypergamy#Research

[DarkWinterNights]

In my experience younger women tend to treat us better. Yeah it’s probably for shallow reasons since we tend to be established, more mature and have more money than 20-somethings guys, but most women I assume are around my age don’t even make eye contact. They also tend to make dating requirements that sound like a job interview.

[Alwayreckles93]

Why so you can control younger woman because they are dumb and easy to control model and manipulate. I am 30 own a house paid off own a paid off truck own a business. Why date a useless inmature?

[Inbox]

@alwayreckles93 Why are you and @MzAsh always posting anti-male and feminist bullshit type of questions or comments? Not every guy is out to get you, control, or manipulate you.

The fact that you state that I have my own business, house paid off, etc and that makes you somehow a superior option compared to 20 year olds tells me you have no idea how men work or what men want.

Most men don’t care if a woman has money, rather we look at aesthetics, whether she’s girlfriend/wife material or goes into the ONS (no more than girls do with bad boys vs nice guys), and fertility if she can have our children.

Women in their 20s are sexually more attractive and have a greater chance of having healthier children, but tend to be immature little bitches. Women in their 30s are more mature, don’t play games, and more likely to have stable/better personalities and lives because they’re experienced - it’s all about the trade off.

[MzAsh]

Why am I getting dragged into this? But since I’m here, I agree with you that women in their 30s are better suited for relationships. A lot of girls in their 20s aren’t ready, and they too often settle for less than what they deserve. If she’s treating you better because you have money, it’s not a healthy relationship.

[MzAsh]

Alwayreckles93, there’s a distinction to be made between men who are interested in an adult relationship and the boys looking to have their ego stroked. Of course younger girls treat guys better. They don’t know any better yet. Quality men won’t be looking for that though.

[Alwayreckles93]

@Inbox Your wrong i am not a femenist. I am just against younger woman chasing after guys my age catagory. I mean do you what a beautiful mature wealthy 30 year old with no debt?

[Alwayreckles93]

@MzAsh Thank you finally it is nice to see someone having common scence. Anyway I bet you look 21 and goid looking i bet.

[Inbox]

@MzAsh It's just an observation - nothing personal.

@alwayreckles93 You may not be an official feminist, but you certainly seem to follow their teachings. There's this naive notion that women should be completely independent and have their own stuff (in fact I agree with this), but they should be exactly like men by having a business, money, etc.

I've been around rich girls and business women and I can tell you that you don't seem to be listening to what I'm trying to tell you. Most men do NOT care about you having your own business, money, etc - it's just a bonus. Similar to a Feminist, you are blindly thinking that men and women want the same thing when it comes to relationships.

In fact, most men I know never actively say or seek a woman with money or a business and it's actually a turn off for many men. Since you're asking about my opinion, I would be intrigued by a woman who has her own business, but NOT if she has money because women who have their own business and money tend to be on the more masculine side, stuck up, unrealistic standards, narcissistic, etc which as I said earlier, most men do not find attractive.

[Inbox]

@alwayreckles93 You can go around like a Feminist saying I'm rich, a better option (the whole empowering thing is a sign of excess/narcissism today) and blah blah, but you're like the fat guy or fat girl (I'm not calling you one) that says "well I know my worth since I'm hot shit" all the while not losing weight/working on yourself or adjusting to the "market" shall we say. In other words, his/her POVs are not targeting the right crowd.

If you have a successful dating life, good for you, but as I said, men want younger women because it's more attractive on the physical side. I am already successful like you, but I just want a woman who can be a woman, meet my standards, and have healthy kids with. I don't need her to be wealthy or have a business or all these supposedly "superior" options as you keep trying to talk about.

Men wanting younger women has been going since the dawn of time, but there are obviously limits. I prefer women in their mid 20s simply because I think it would be immoral (downright even criminal) to have kids with a woman that has a high chance of having a severe health condition. It would destroy me as a parent knowing I played a role in that, so no, I disagree with Mrs. MzAsh that only quality men prefer women above their 30s.

[MzAsh]

If the guy is only making 50k like the average American, that’s not going to be enough to live comfortable. She’s going to have to have her own money. As someone who for years has worked as a freelancer and more recently a solo entrepreneur, yes there are certain masculine qualities needed to succeed. But as a woman in a marriage, it’s important to balance the masculine and feminine. Standards and boundaries are nonnegotiable and must be solid. This is where most women fall flat, and they’re too soft and end up played by a man.

If you want someone in their 20s, you’re going to have to find a VERY mature and life experienced person with relationship skills already in place.

[Inbox]

@MzAsh I agree with you, but: 1) women do need to be independent/have their own money as I stated, but it’s going too far now, 2) yes, “empowered” women do need to balance out their feminine qualities, but that’s not what is being taught, rather every woman has to be a Wonder Woman or Ronda Rousey or highly masculine now, and 3) You can still be soft, but also have the assertiveness to set boundaries or walk away.

Regarding the 20s, yes that is the challenge, but it’s all about the trade off as I stated also earlier. As I’m getting older, personality is the most important because a lot of beautiful women I found don’t have an incentive to change because they can get almost any man they want, so I put up with very little nonsense from women nowadays.

[MzAsh]

What do you mean that it’s going to far with women having their own money? How so and what needs to change?

I can be softer, or harder, depending on the situation. I’m feminine but I’m not very girlish. Still, people online love to call me masculine because inout earn my husband, pay bills and make decision. I’m not the submissive in my marriage. But neither he or I want me to be submissive so this is just what works for us. Women are going to have find out what actually works and sustains a happy relationship for the long haul, and it’s typically a healthy blend of some feminine and some masculine qualities.

[MzAsh]

Mmm I’m married so nice try.,

[Inbox]

@MzAsh What nice try? Thanks for assuming. What I mean by going too far is that the Feminists go around saying “I don’t need a man” but then go around whining about men, want sex or relationships, etc.

The need for independence should not void common sense or false sense of reality - this is why I don’t trust idealists because the people who go around always talking about what’s “right and wrong.” moral, etc are often the biggest hypocrite of them all.

Somebody who calls you masculine just because you make more is assuming, but it may make men feel threatened (childishly). As a man, I understand it, but the problem usually lies that as a woman grows more successful, her wants may also change and she may end up leaving to be with another type of man and that may be one of the main reasons why people call you masculine.

[MzAsh]

Whoops. The “nice try” was for someone else who commented but his comments were removed. Apologies for confusion.

Yeah I can understand that. I’ve always wanted to live comfortably but in not with my man for survival reasons.

[Inbox]

@MzAsh It's all good. Yet, you still got married did you not? All humans dream of a better tomorrow and seeking to settle or having a release by having a ONS, friends with benefits, etc is part of that survival process.

If you got a divorce you will be able to survive, but you will still seek out male attention, validation, sex, and may be even a new partner eventually, unless of course you're very old where it won't matter anymore.

Point is women and men need each other. I think it's God's or the Universe's way of balancing the ecosystem on Earth with at least humans (and probably most species).

[Leapfrog00]

Because they're stupid. I mean so many guys try to impress girls, but then a lot of them are trying to get in their pants. I would never give a female special treatment, If she doesn't like me for who I am, she can go screw herself!

Respect has to be earned. I already learned that girls don't like guys to buy them flowers or pull-out chairs for them. They think "Nice guys" are week, so my question is "What do girls want?" lol.

I think it's a lost cause!

[RavVid]

Generational descriptors are quite vague. Millennials could be 27 to 42 so it isn't that sensible to use a 15 year age group plus there isn't a lot of consistency in the categorization. A lot of the answers are by those who are millennials or close to it.

[Mansearching]

Has nothing to do with being a millennial, I think. Just the way you were raised. Age is just a number. Sometimes it happens that way.

[Alwayreckles93]

Funny thing I had a conversation about this with one of my old childhood guy friends. He told me the hearth choose not us. I tougj intresting.

[Mansearching]

Works in mysterious ways

[Anemone978]

If you are born before 1997 you are a millennial too lol Anyways, all men give any woman they want to fuck special treatment. They might treat them better because they are more fit to their sexual desire.

[Anonymous]

I've noticed this too. Not just millennial guys either like my husband. Seems to be a period for a woman between 16-30 and then guys start to treat you like a linebacker.
I intend to enjoy the next ten years

[Paulalove98]

Not all are like that. I’m nearly 25 and my boyfriend is 18 and doesn’t care that I’m older. There’s even some other guys In general who prefer older women. My half sister is 44 and her boyfriend is 37

[runnerboy]

Paula, ur boyfriend must love having sex with a slightly older girl. I hope you two are having tons of fun!

[WhiteBoyChill]

She was talking about the inverse of your situation though. Older guys, with younger women

[Nikki1989]

There is far too much generalizing on this post and in some comments. You can't judge every single man purely just on age alone.

[Anonymous]

Because men of all ages are most physically attracted to women under age 30. It's a genetic certainty. That doesn't mean all older men will pursue younger women, but if they're straight they will find younger women most attractive.

[Alwayreckles93]

Most attractive please I've seen woman myage looking more fit better and more younger then younger woman.

[WhiteBoyChill]

@alwayreckles93 For real! Like honestly women in their 30’s are hella more attractive.

Girls in their 20’s just act too childlike.

[Alwayreckles93]

@WhiteBoyChill Thanks

[Opinion Owner]

Sure, no question there are women 30 and older that look better than some younger women, but it's beside the point. What I wrote above is 100% accurate 90% of the time (that was my retort to your "more younger then").

[Alwayreckles93]

@WhiteBoyChill Well I was once like you young full of joy and saw a bright light in my future.

[WhiteBoyChill]

I don't know. Rn it just seems like I’m in an unwinnable situation. Which just really frustrates me

[stepyo99]

It's another episode of a 30 year old femcel quickly approaching the wall and enraged that she wasted her youth and now nobody wants her.

[mobiusforniner]

That weird moment when you see younger generations talking about millennials as if we are old...

Drops head in silence...

[Mangospacho]

It’s pretty common though. It’s not the first time men have showed younger women attention. I don’t get it, personally. I would prefer someone more mature like 35 or older.

[Billlewis]

Why on earth would a guy not want to give a woman special treatment? Isn't that what we've been put on this earth to do?

[Static_In_The_Attic]

I’m a millennial man & when it comes to special treatment if a women finds a way to my heart she’ll get special treatment all the way.

[ImagineSketchy]

Men in general treat younger women like that. Something about primal subconscious and all that just preferring younger women.

[PointTaken]

Kind of unsure but it happens. I have found myself liking younger women. Sometimes I question why. There's one we do have a lot in common. Lol.

[PointTaken]

But I do like women. Doesn't really matter the age. If we're compatible then we are. If not, then no worries.

[Alwayreckles93]

You would date a 29 year old?

[PointTaken]

I would. Yes. As long as we are compatible

[Alwayreckles93]

So pretty as long she's an old soul?

[PointTaken]

Doesn't really mean old soul. I'm not really an old soul as what people believe what it means. Lol. As long as we get along, have fun, and love each other. Age means nothing

[Alwayreckles93]

Well I do haveto admit i hatebto say it but i must say the truth. At least men your age are more civilized and respectful about it. Unlike most guys my generation that yelling name calling.

[PointTaken]

Most are. I've seen some that I think are just creeps and pervs. Seems like manners got lost somewhere for the younger generations. Most of my friends are 20-28. I have a couple around my age. Lol.

[runnerboy]

It could be that they just want to get laid?

[MikeyObrien]

Because men desire younger women more than older women. Just like women treat tall/rich/attractive men with special treatment.

[RingOfFire]

Can you expound on this question. Not really sure what you mean. Example?

[MysteriousDarkness]

Why are you generalizing all guys born 1981-1996?

[Anonymous]

Because younger women generally hold more market value. Sorry🫢

[Alwayreckles93]

Thats rude thing to say.

[Bklynbadboy12]

I wasn't even aware they did that. Are you speaking from experience?

[WhiteBoyChill]

Because they’re simps and immature

[Bobbysworld]

What do you mean by special treatment?

[Alwayreckles93]

Calling them beautiful.
Holding the door.
Asking them on dates.
Getting them coffee.
Inviting them to dance.

[Bobbysworld]

No clue. I give that treatment to all woman. I thought that's the norm.

[MannMitAntworten]

@Alwayreckles93 That list is what passes for special treatment? If that is special treatment, perhaps you should consider dating older as well. That is a very low threshold list.

[zagor]

Could you be more specific?

[WanderingLoveWizard]

I don't

[Alex8736]

Insecurity

[Alwayreckles93]

Oh im not insecure.

[Alex8736]

Not you but them

[Alwayreckles93]

Oh okay thanks.
