Why do some women always bash younger women and think they’re stupid and that’s why guys go for them?

I feel like this completely disregards all the positive qualities about that woman. What I hear is “he’s not with you because you’re pretty. He’s with you because you’re easy to manipulate.” I think this is really sexist to think a young woman can’t have agency over her own decisions. I would think men just go for women they’re attracted to. I think the only time it gets really toxic is when they will ONLY date girls in a specific age range and it’s static, which is kind of unreasonable. Once I dated a guy in his late 30s and his ex went off on him saying it’s abusive. But I wanted to date someone older…

I think when women say that they are right more often that not and they don't say it to make the girl feel stupid. You can make your own judgement and decisions while still being duped. Let's not pretend that the vast majority of men aren't always lying about their intentions and hiding their true colors in relationships. If women were incapable of being fooled by it, it would never happen. You can get mislead but it doesn't mean you're stupid or doesn't have any agency to make your own decisions and have your own thoughts. You will realize soon or later anyway.

I’ve seen women who’s the older than me get duped though as well.

Looking out for younger more impressionable women is a good thing. Especially when they are seeing someone who is much older than them or has a reputation. There's nothing wrong with giving warnings but if course if it's your friend you support them either way and will be there to pick up the pieces when it all turns to shit as you warned them

From what I've observed, women hate on other women that get the attention that they desire from men. Prime example, women calling other women whores, or sluts. In this context, they're calling you stupid because feminism has taught most women to see men as competition, rather than equals. When that's the case, said woman can't fathom a genuine relationship between the sees, because it's not something they can attract, or even sustain.

Truth is younger or older some women are more likable.

The complaining women are warning you because they probably got stuck with some jerk who they thought will be loyal to them and got off with a younger girl.

You would be surprised that some women wait and wait for their man to marry them only to see them turn old and dumped. I feel really sad for such girls.

They are not bashing, at least from what I see they are mostly looking out for you because they’ve been in your shoes before once.


Like just saying you probably think dating an older man will be nice because they are more mature but the truth is the mature older men are gonna be with mature women not with a woman half his age. Usually it’s the man babies does this because he’s not mature enough to attract someone closer to his age and a younger women won’t be experienced enough to be able to tell he’s a bum

Because in most cases than not, it can be true. Like a 20 year old with a 40 year old. Just ridiculous in my opinion. Do I necessarily think it’s manipulation? No, but I would still side-eye the man. I’m 25 and the differences between me and a 20 year old are vast. Even at my age right now I couldn’t see myself dating a 40+ man.

Women can be really mean to one another. Particularly if the woman is younger, prettier, or heaven forbid both. Not really sure why - it’s just that way.

Older women are always jealous of younger women. I'm a married woman in my early 30s I see how some 40yo women treat me just because I have what they want but is not my fault they can't keep a man. Women are jealous AF.

A lot of it is jealousy, often wrapped up in "concern" for the younger woman. More than a few older gals view younger ones as competition and will try to feed them bad advice with intent to sabotage.

Yeah--guys don't go for younger women because they're stupid. We go for them because they're HOT and because they tend to have a light, bright, wonderfully positive energy about them.

It's not sexist. It's jealousy.
