What's with old men + young women, but not the other way around? Do men just age better? :)

I remember a college prof. telling us that for an older guy the female is half his age plus 6 years. It seems to be pretty accurate most of the times.

Don't really know why.

OK I do $$$$$.

Its the Oedipus complex.

Guys don't want to date their mothers.
Girls want to find someone like their fathers.

I like older women. They're more mature. Most teenagers are clueless, and that applies to the girls too.

Well, I know I'm an older guy, and I prefer younger women. My GF is 8 years younger than I am.....:p -kd5-

Would you rather be a 70 year old man banging a 20 year old, or a 20 year old banging a 70 year old woman. 'nuff said. ;)

I think maturity and experience come into it. I'm 40+, and although have had a mostly happy, but rocky at times marriage, there are lot's of things I've learned over the years. If divorced, I believe my next mate would be much younger. I spent too many years practicing and learning what NOT to do. :)

<< Hehe, you ever notice how you always see old dudes with beautiful young women? >>



All the time man. I think it is a male thing to look for someone physically young and sexy. Do you remember those 16 year olds in high schoolers who were dating 28 year old guys?



<< It just sprang to mind watching Paul McCartney on Leno with his new MUCH younger fiance. >>



Celine Dion comes to my mind. She's 30 something and her husband is like grandpa age.




<< The thing is, you hardly ever see older women with younger men. >>



There will be some serious "maturity" conflict between a same aged men and women let alone with the guy being younger.
