Personally, I would have no problem, dating, or even marrying a woman older than me( I have had women in my life, from 1/12 to 6 years older than me, in the past), and IMHO, the "young ones", (18-30), tend to bore me, as they are usually very liberal, and only concerned with sex, shopping, fashion, hollywood, and other such "fluff". Give me a chioce between a 25-year-old blond bombshell, who cannot even name the vice-president, or a 40 year-old, who is somewhat attractive, but not a beauty(on the OUTSIDE), BUT who is warm, caring, conservative,HONEST, and who can carry on a reasonable, meaningful conversation with me, about world affairs, politics, religious issues, economy, etc. ANYTHING, other than what Ben Afleck or Paris hilton is up to, or other useless drivel)...

I would pick the 40 yerar-old , IN A HEARTBEAT!!!!!!!!

Like I said, when I say i have a preference for a woman with more youth, that's not to say I am looking for any young woman. I agree with your analysis, but it's not adressing what I said, really. That is, for me the question is not as you posed, but rather 'Give me a choice between a 25-year-old who is somewhat attractive, but not a beauty (on the OUTSIDE), BUT who is warm, caring, conservative,HONEST, and who can carry on a reasonable, meaningful conversation with me, about world affairs, politics, religious issues, economy, etc., or a 40 year-old, who is somewhat attractive, but not a beauty(on the OUTSIDE), BUT who is warm, caring, conservative,HONEST, and who can carry on a reasonable, meaningful conversation with me, about world affairs, politics, religious issues, economy, etc.'

All I am saying that given that choice, I'll swing with the 25 year old.

Unless the older woman is Witchiepoo - then all bets are off!

Yeah, that's my take. Age isn't as important to me, 18 or 40, don't care as long as she can put up with me, has aq good head on her shoulders and so on, well, you know the deal. B-) Like you, I do roll my eyes when the conversations go to stuff like Ben Affleck and pop culture, I mean, that's just plain fluff and also, I just believe if letting the Hollyweird people sort out their petty problems, I have REAL problems. I mean would the world blow up if Ben Affleck marries Paris Hilton? Those things just don't concern me, I'd rather work on the real stuff. It's like at one family gathering 10 years ago, everyone talked about Seinfeld, me, I can't stand the show, it doesn't appeal to me and wonder why it has an appeal? I'm just different I guess. I could have butted in, "well, I was watching 'Young Indiana Jones' the other night" but I decided against it. I like shows like that, being into history and stuff.

Yeah, I do agree with you that the younger set, with a few exceptions are too tied up in the stupid pop culture, Cosmopolitan stuff. I seek the same things as you in women too.
