Guys and girls, would you rather date someone younger than you, the same age as you, or older than you? Why?

Most of the time you hear about guys preferring younger girls and girls preferring older men. I'm wondering how accurate this generalization is.

I myself have never really been into younger girls. I'm still a teenager though, so that may very well change as I get older. But I've never liked the thought of going out with someone younger than me by more than, say, a year. I've always preferred someone my age, but recently I've actually begun to want to date older girls. Not too much older, but maybe 1-4 years older. There's something about it that attracts me lol. I'd still be very happy to date someone my age though.

So, how bout you guys?

(Note: For the poll, I put age ranges for the "younger" and "older" options because I do think getting an answer of a few years younger or older than the person would be different from getting an answer of a huge age difference, be it younger or older. If you fall into Option D, feel free to elaborate or be more specific in your answer. And of course, anyone else can elaborate on their preference too.)
I'd rather date someone younger than me - one to 6 years younger
I'd rather date someone my age
I'd rather date someone older than me - one to 6 years older
I'd rather date someone more than 6 years older than me or more than 6 years younger than me
