Apart from obvious attractiveness in younger adults, I’d probably chalk it up to societal norms (and maybe there’s an evolutionary component to it as well) for males’ perceived value on being the bread winner.
So dating younger is how you ensure they are dependent on you, and thus fulfill your purpose as a man.
There’s absolutely a ton of men out there who are looking to trap a young woman into marriage. I’d say that’s the biggest risk of an big age gap relationship for a woman.
So many mid responses to this question, so here is the actual answer.
Men are raised to be more overtly sexual and have the most income (yes yes… my culture, my country, not worldwide, stfu we all know…) , because of this advertising has been focused on men while bombarding us with their image of perfect feminine beauty (which tends to be youthful qualities) to get us to focus on their products, seeing this your entire life you adopt that framework of what beauty is.
Ultimately though its because the majority of the world are NPC’s following a script.
I think its fair to say, myself included, many women want to date older men, not 20 years older, but at least a few. For me it was like 1-4 years older is good for me.
Honestly when dating, I found better results not worrying so much about age, but rather where their standing was within siblings and family.
As in, I am the eldest child, and my best relationships are with other eldest (or only) children. When I would date the youngest of a family, the dynamic was so different, and I could tell he was babied by his mom growing up, I unconsciously had less respect for him. I broke up with him when I realized it consciously. He ended up marrying a nice girl years later, I learned she’s also the youngest in her family, they match.
I’m being so unserious, and I’ve had relationships not work out with other eldest sibling people, but it’s something I noticed when I was dating. I married an eldest child, and we’re peas in a fucking pod. It probably has something to do with they way our world view forms growing up in our familial hierarchy.
Definitely. She makes dirty dishes waaaaaay faster than I can wash them. I have no idea how, but she’ll use 6 plates 4 spoons and a colander when she gets takeout.
When woman say, that men are poor quality commodities it’s funny you see?
I’m a man and I need a bro to explain me
why are men attracted to younger women?
I’m interested in women my age ± like 5 years ish.
when I was a teen I was into teens, in my 20s I was into girls in their 20s…
the idea of dating a 20 years old as a 36 year old man seems gross and annoying.
Because they don’t want to date (i. e. have some kind of personal engagement), they want to play nut and bolt.
Nut and bolt? That the new Ratchet and Clank?
i get that, I also want hook-ups, but I don’t see the attraction of someone 18 years younger than me.
I mean, people in their 20s are incredibly un-chill and very not sure who they are. Dating someone like that sounds kinda awful.
I am on your team with this.
I may not want kids but I still want to be called daddy
🤮

even more gross
dating younger women to take advantage of dependence.

i feel like if pedophilia was legal those men would go after children
It is legal and they do so long as you’re a Christian and get the parents to agree.
Purely physically speaking, pretty much everyone gets less attractive as they get older.
There is, of course, a maturity gap, which is a whole different problem.

This post is pointing out that few men want to date ‘older’ women while men of all ages want to date younger women.
It’s wild how discussing age and gender inequality in dating is considered misandry.
I thought it was a “all the good ones are taken” post
So on sites like these, the primary context inside of a specific thread is the thread itself, the secondary context is the post. Hope that helps.

I want to date older women. 🤷♂️
Married an “older” woman.
Ran into any problems where you can’t keep up?
Definitely. She makes dirty dishes waaaaaay faster than I can wash them. I have no idea how, but she’ll use 6 plates 4 spoons and a colander when she gets takeout.
🙄 I think you’ll be okay
feminism! /s
