My gut reaction is that attractiveness is not the only metric in choosing partners.
Females mature faster than males, so dating up is beneficial in that way.
But eventually that completely neutralizes and there's no disparity anymore. (It depends on how they were parented and what their home life was/is like, too.)
You might be onto something a bit, though, with the pedo idea. Older guys asking 'What's the legal age in [wherever they live]?' is disgusting.
Some guys will say that's only about youthful fertility, and will cite marriages starting around 14 being 'normal' (i. e. a good idea) in prior human history.
It also accompanies some darker aspects - of paedophilia at its worst, but also an inequality and disparity in not wanting your equal, but someone who they can can tower over, both physically and psychologically, with all their knowledge and experience about the world. Some men do not want women who are intellectual and experienced equal, who challenge them. Passivity and wide-eyed deference is much easier.

I agree. According to statistics women marry 1- 5 years older men and not old men.
I actually think women label these men as creepy and pedo so they can feel better about themselves actually.
Once they are past that age, they use this as a shaming tactic to keep viable men around for them. I'm 34, and women much younger than me are always interested. I am mature, make good money, and men sometimes get better looking with age, happened with me. If you found a good guy and married him, why would you care if men like younger women? Because you are single, and aren't young anymore.
Would I seriously date someone younger than 24, probably not. But I can definetely say that younger women are more attractive physically. I just wouldn't be able to connect mentally.
What is the problem with men liking younger women? If you don't like older men, you don't have to date one.
Well, you might have some insider information but tell that to all the potential jailbait that hits on me. Explain to the 16-to-20 (don’t know her age) that grabbed my hand handing me rental car keys and asked me to take her to the State Fair that weekend e. g.. Then tell those other ones, that giggle around me and stare at me with their foot fidgeting. Also, let the early 20 something’s that attempt to cleverly (but blatantly obviously) manipulate a date out of me. This stuff is all relative and you have your perspective and opinions; however, that is all they are.

I don't think any of you understand what pedophilia or grooming actually is. I know you like to throw those around but they are very serious, criminal, and abusive acts that you are alleging just cuz you feel bitter, jealous, or prejudiced towards other grown ass adults who date outside your personal approval.
When you call men groomers for an age gap, you're alleging they're in it to manipulate/indoctrinate their partner against their better judgement and self-interest into an abusive relationship for dominance & control. When you call them pedos, you allege they are only attracted to a younger woman out of some closeted desire to diddle little children (what the actual f--). You are also denying the woman's basic autonomy to informed consent by treating them like children who can't make independent choices for themselves.
Do you understand how sexist and unhinged that looks like? If two consenting adults are happy together, then whatever floats their boat. Mind your own business, it doesn't affect your life in any way and complaining just makes you look jealous and bitter. Let them live their life and worry more about living yours. There's a whole world out there with plenty of grass to touch.
Also OP's graph looks blatantly fakeI must be in the minority here since my chart for the second one would start at 15 and the woman's age would be 33.
It would just increase in increments from there.
Although good to know that men don't reach peak physical attractiveness to woman until late 20s-early 40s. Got a few years left at that one.I don't know. I don't think that younger women are attractive these days. Too often those I have seen are empty headed, have high body counts, curse, get drunk, wear thongs and the like, tattoo and/or pierce their bodies, or seek oral sex.
Young women want to fuck Chad Thundercock who is younger and is banging his way through all of your friends; but they want an older/wealthier guy to pay for things.
You sound really angry! You must have some daddy issues, lol.
I don't unless they tell me they do, i think you like the attention, but do not want to admit it
