I think some men think they age better than women. I think that is why some women will not celebrate their age.I know some very good looking people 70, 80, even 90 year old people and I hope I look great just like them when I reach that age.

I think it boils down to what has traditionally been valued in most cultures...men value women for their ability to give them sons, and this value generally decreases with age, whereas women value men for their earning potential, which generally increases with age. :pop2:

... seems reasonable.


I simply noticed, even when I was like TWELVE... the gals seemed to go for guys older than they - and even now in my late 20's, that's still the case. And men movie stars and such tend to be regarded as "sexy" at much older ages than generally with women. And the celeb from Dos Equis Beer, THE most famous man in the world whom all the 3.6 billion ladies swoon over, like how old is he????? Well.... Mark's "take" is probably at least part of it.

Here in Holland young guys go for old women thanks to feminism I guess. Lately I had a 21 year old who was interested. And guys in their thirties. Wut? When my ex was 36 he wanted a 24 year old. They go for a 46 year old. One boy on a dating site. He was in his twenties but he looked like 16. I was very happy with the compliment of course and thanked him very much lol. Since then I don't bother about wrinkles anymore. Lol so funny, he wanted to come over to play soccer with the kids.

My fiancee is 15 years younger than me, but I didn't set out to find a much younger woman. We found each other through an interest to which we are both deeply committed.

I was just looking for a daddy figure I think. Guys my age were never interested anyway. He still treats me as a kid. He's so bossy. But I don't care. It's super handy when you have kids. He takes his responsibility and he raises them very well. They're here again. Just picked them up. You said we had to stay a year with dad. Oh yeah I meant a day lol sorry kiddo's. I was tired.
