At what age do you consider women to have hit their peak attractiveness?

[Joseph F]

I would have to say 30-35, for most women. Of course, this doesn't ring true for all, but I'm just speaking generally.

Well, I've made an option for you, good sir.

Some women look like shit at 20 (especially these days thanks to all the fatties) and some women still look great in their 50s+. There is no way to accurately answer your poll. You must be young.

Taking my first semester of summer classes at college.. whatever age these girls are, I'm guessing 19-22

 

[Shawn]

College age... so 18-21.

 

[HendrixFan]

In my experience the majority of them peak around 22-24, though there are certainly outliers. You can still find plenty of good looking women that are older, but you can be 99% sure that she looked even better back when she was 23.

Quite a few peak earlier because of weight issues that don't take off until after high school.

 

[vi edit]

Impossible to answer. I find what I find as "beauty" to shift as I get older. It's not a lower standard thing, there's just different stuff I notice and appreciate about women now. When I was in my late teens/early 20's women in their 30's just looked...old. Now as I'm in my mid 30's there's plenty of women I find far more attractive in my age group if not even older than I do 20 somethings.

I can't go back to women I know that are now in their 30's and say they were better looking in their early 20's...then they just look like pedobait.



How you maintain yourself is much more important than age.

Agree.

This.

Start to go down hill at 26. Fall off a cliff at 30.

It's so depressing how shit chicks look after 30. It makes marriage nearly impossible because you're partner will be ugly within a few years of marriage.

I'm 30 and I laugh when 30 year old chicks try to talk to me.

I'm like

'Are you fucking kidding me? Look at me, then look at you. I'm at my peak and you're far from it. Go fuck a 45 year old guy.'

:biggrin: And you wonder why you're single.

 

[Fayd]

depends on the woman. some age well, and look better into their 30's, 40's...

some don't, and look best in their teens.

Who said I was single?

And I don't actually say that to them. I'm not that mean.

 

[her209]

I'd say from 22-28.

This. I've facebook added or at least searched for a lot of people I remember from high school, and most of them are significantly less attractive than I remember. One of my female friends was most attractive around age 14, then after that she started gaining weight. It's such a shame because she had a really nice smile. Eventually reality settles in, people become jaded, and that illuminating smile is never seen again.

I find that nerdy women get more attractive with age. The average woman might peak around 16, but the nerdy ones are just getting started at 16. They might peak around 30 or 40.

 

[PrinceofWands]

Some from 15-20, others not until 25-30, still others not until 40.

[Mr. Pedantic]

Should have put in whether people were within 5 or 10 years of their choice.

 

[Zebo]

Impossible to answer. Susanna Hoffs is like 60 and I never cheated on my wife in 16 years but would be tested like never before in her case. OTOH I've seen fat and tattooed all over rode hard put up wet 20 yr old skanks.

 

[Zunhs]

I find that I am attracted to women my_current_age ± X [years]. X seems to grow the older I get. At 40 I extrapolate X to be 10.

When they stop caring about themselves and their appearance. I think to a certain extent beauty comes from the inside out. When a woman really sees herself as beautiful it shines through.

Of course this includes attention to diet, hair, dress, right amount of makeup etc.

Those Fw emails with strange Wal-Mart people are full of extreme examples of what not to do, especially inappropriate clothing on overweight women.

 

[Fallingwater]

There is too much variety to make a general argument. There are many that look ridiculously hot at 20 and then degrade; there are others that look funnily odd at 20, but stupidly hot at 30; there are yet others that benefit greatly from a certain mature look that they get at around 40.

I don't get it. You like a woman who doesn't care about her appearance, yet diets and applies the right amount of make up. Is that not a contradiction?

No I like women who care about themselves. What I'm saying is, for me there isn't a certain age as a cut-off point where women become unattractive. I think they pass their 'peak attractiveness' when they stop giving a shit. Most self-respecting women never lose this even in old age.
