Does dating younger men actually make a lot of evolutionary sense - higher sex drives in older women, better fertility in younger sperm, etc. ?
Now, that I'm an older woman (31) with no kids, I can confirm - horny af. I dabble in cougarism now 😇 This makes me rethink the dating younger men seriously. It makes sense in terms of evolution - older women probably have a sex drive that matches up better with young men until a certain age, plus sperm also age and deteriorate, cause birth defects. Younger sperm = even better chances at healthy baby. The trick is maturity, interest in very serious relationships (some young guys are, to be fair), and finances. Divorce is high for age gaps, but gender may affect that, in my opinion. But even for fun - a lot of older men/young women relationships amount to just fun. We like our fun too and arguably have way more access to sexual fun than men do. I honestly don't think most women struggle to get casual sex until maybe 60s and even then it's still probably more of an issue of her lack of interest at that age.
Serious is the focus for me these days though :)
Older women here - did your sex drive/sexual activity increase as you left the early/mid 20s? Do you enjoy dating younger men in general?
Cougars have increased a lot in my city and I think in most major cities. Will it continue as a trend and become more common? Are you a cougar/do you think you'd be into it? :)
I'll leave ya with some popular cougar couples / women who are just older by a few years lol :Maybe instead of being annoyed by men 30+ preferring 21 year olds, more of us old ladies should be dating younger men as well, hmmm... enjoy your life, ladies! You only get one :)
Superb Opinion
