From my own input and what I've observed from my friends and acquaintances, young guys like myself are willing to sleep with older women no problem, but it's off-putting to stay with them unless they are mature and successful in their career. Reason being is that older women clearly have children on their mind first and foremost so anything more than a one night stand leads to clingy and quick moving relationships that feel like high school 2.0 but with higher stakes that will interfere with our endeavours or career aspirations. It's hard to justify being with someone if they are primarily after us just to make kids. And because kids are going to be a high priority, it must be taken into account that few of us would actually be willing or ready at this point in our lives to have them.
All that being said. If an older woman can make kids a non issue and pursue me for me, i personally would be much more willing to date her and give it a chance to flourish.
I've no problem being with an older women (been there done that... twice) but probably not as a dating prospect, mostly because I don't do relationship (not until I'm 27) and partially because I wouldn't think an older women wants a relationship with someone way younger like me.
Some young men might like older, experienced women. But for longterm relationships you need to be clear that you might not want to have children or you can't have children. This is the one disadvantage older women suffer from. Older men can still father children if with a younger woman. If you want to be someone's fantasy, I suppose you can do that. But don't you simply want to be appreciated for what you bring to a relationship, not as some fetish?
Because I don't look my age it has confused a few younger men. In my case younger men are late 30s early 40s. It's been in social situations not dating. I tend to let any interest just fade away not attend to it. I don't do casual and I wouldn't start with someone who hasn't accomplished what they want in life like marriage and kids.

Watch this film 🎞 Its called The Garden of Words. I can’t speak for all men but we are attracted to women who are beautiful in their own way regardless of age.
I have thing for I don't like to say older but seasoned more mature women. You don't have to play games they know what they want and when you know how to go with the flow instead of going against the grain you will be introduced to a world unimaginable by most male standards.
I probably wouldn’t see them as a dating prospect. I’m 22 and I don’t really see anyone older than 18 or 19 as a dating prospect. For men, when it comes to dating with the intention of marriage and building a family, younger is better. I wouldn’t date younger than 16 though.
It depends on the guy.
My boyfriend is seven years older (19 and almost 26) and I'm the only girl he's dated, but he tried setting my 26 year old roommate up with an 18 year old guy. We both told him that was too much of an age gap, but he didn't think it was weird. Not sure how the guy himself felt about it.
Yep they do. I'm also older and look younger but take care of myself very well. I've dated a few younger guys who made me their girlfriend and proudly showed me off in public. I'm currently pregnant by a younger guy (and we're in a relationship) and down the line in another year or two after the baby he's willing to marry me and wants another baby. Don't get caught up on this age stuff. As long as you're beautiful and have a good personality that's all men of all ages care about. It's not about age, I'm sure you've seen unattractive and fat/out of shape younger women before.
If you have $$$ and a career, and they are broke working three partime jobs with no benefits -- yeah maybe.
As economic positions between men and women flip due to more women than men graduating college we might start seeing gender stereotype preferences flip.
Can't speak for everyone. For me I'm attracted to a few years younger but I've seen plenty older even one in her 40's that were 😮
Not sure if I would pursue it since I don't like to play around with people's feelings but I duno. Have never done it before.
Yes we do. I’m 20 and like my older women between 40-60.
Absolutely yes! Personally I think that I'm attracted from "different" women.
I mean that a 20's is not used to hang out with older women, so he finds that fascinating!
Maybe I would find out I don't like their habits, but I will be curious for sure, and wouldn't miss that kind of chance!
Sexxually I prefer older women. They tend to be less coy. Know what they want and will make sure you know. That is if they are mature older women- with a bit of a wild streak. Older women have been the most passionate, multi-orgasmic SOs I've had
I think it would be good for every guy when he's like 19 - 25 and single to have a sexual affair with a woman in her late 30s - 40s.
Fantasy? Yes, but not a one night stand
I would date an older woman. Why not? I'm attracted to her and I like her.
Some do, some don't. Its like everything, each person has their own preferences. I believe it also has to do with maturity levels. If you are more mature you aim for someone with a similar maturity level and visa verser.
I'd say many do. Older women are very attractive to a lot of men.
I was attracted to older women in my 20s. Older women always seemed to have this level of confidence that was a turn on. They also seemed to know what they wanted. Not really into games.
Nick Jonas (26) and Emmanuel Macron (41) didn't care about age difference when they married. Priyanka Chopra-Jonas is 37 and Brigitte Macron is 66. Both couples seem so far to be happily married.
It's almost never something long term or serious. If you just expect to have fun, go for it.
I personally love older women my first girlfriend was 1 year older than me from there the following serious relationship were all with women 1 or 2 years older than I was. Which a lead to meeting the mother of my son who was 10 years older. things didn't work out then i hooked up with a 41 year old women a while after and theb hooked up with a 32 year old. And all this happend from when i was 21-25(currently 25).
I've never really taken an interest in women that are older than myself. But I know some guys are into that. I have a coworker who is happily married to a woman that is about 10 years older than him.
Probably yes as long as they aren't looking to settle down and have kids. (Though you could still adopt.)
