But it true.

I remember Sue Hubble discussing this in her book about Bee keeping. I read it in my mid thirties.

She spoke about once a woman is over a certain age men do not register them as present or women to really see. She talked about the freedom of being invisible.

Years later, as attractive as I am, I see the difference in the male response when I walk into a restaurant or store. It is nothing bad,it is just different. Men are attracted to young women. They do not see the older one. I imagine there is an biological issue here.

Someone posted his picture above. I doubt he is charming. He looks like Mr. Bean needing a shave.

Seems to me the guy’s just pointing out reality.

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

16 years old in heart, 50 years old or more in body. Immaturity is an apparent hallmark of Frenchmen.

"...true love and companionship..."


In my experience the majority of men and women are typically attracted to age-appropriate partners to typically match their years.

We will naturally see the "extremes" of older guys with younger women or older women with younger guys...yet that is seemingly a minority observation. Most birds of a feather flock together.

Bullcrap. There are smoking hot 50 year old babes and nasty, crusty, out of shape 25 year olds galore. And way too many with gross tattoos.

Well, what is age appropriate. I think a man marrying a gal 5 to 15 years younger is a good thing, especially if he provides for her. I think a woman marrying someone much younger, is going to have issues at some point in time.

It all comes down to the same things, regardless of the country or the ethnicity. You grow together thru respectful argument, and requires you to listen and adapt to your partner. If you don’t do that, then it doesn’t go anywhere.

Former Supreme Court Justice William O Douglas married 23-year-old Cathleen Heffernan when he was 67. And he was not immensely wealthy.

For a 40 year old man, the main reason to marry is to have kids, which means that it makes sense to seek a woman who is still in her most fertile years (20 to 35). If he's not interested in kids, it makes more sense to just live with her, and avoid the risks of divorce-rape.

Likewise!
She is sexier than many women in their 20’s.
She didn’t believe me when I first told her.

Biological attraction is what it is, they can’t be dictated by someone’s standards.

I find a 35 or 40 year old woman with a nice figure to be quite attractive.
I’m not deluded into thinking they would have the same attraction for me at my age.

And who cares what a bunch of men hating feminists think anyway? Nothing a man says or does is going to make them happy.

When you are 25 a 50 year old guy is hard to love unless he's got a lot of money.

Not necessarily. I love older men, and even find very old men very handsome. Buddy Ebsen sat at the next table from me at a restaurant once. I thought he was one of the most handsome men I had ever seen. Unfortunately, I was on a date and couldn't flirt with him. LOL

No because they don’t have a penis usually

But the average fifty year old woman has a fraction the sex drive of a fifty year old man

And less emotional availability

It’s just life

Men don’t cheat at that age for someone younger simply cause they are so hot

It’s more than that

Most women get old in many ways

I know you hate to hear it

I could not handle a lifelong commitment to a woman that much older but she’s certainly very cute for her age

Sad fact is most women her age don’t look that good

Maybe one in 100
