^^^I agree and this is why at 40 I no longer date. I am old, unattractive, and so that makes me creepy. I encourage women my age to go myounger. Maybe a boatload of us old guys whould be put in a boat, sent out on the lake and then sink the boat. Wouldn't that be awesome to older women? Ridding the world of undesirable old men?

I just think that it's part of that feminist garbage as well as a general trend sweeping across the western world. It'll pass when the last cougar wakes up, stops making stupid excuses for her choice and admits the difference between a boy and a real man.

And oh, "why is that an older woman looking for younger men is OK but...older men for younger girls is BAD" That's funny, because it isn't, never has and never will be true.

At 40 you no longer date? Thats ridiculous or did you mean that women 10-15 years younger don't want to date you? I'm confused, i'm 9 years older than you and actually prefer men my own age or older, and sure maybe alot of those men in that bracket are looking for women alot younger than me, however having been young myself once i am confident that there is not an exceptional abundance of younger women looking to date much older men, so actually their chances of having no-one are much higher than mine, in the scheme of things. What you want and what you get are two different things!! And this garbage about reproduction, older men needing younger women so they can reproduce - how selfish is that - being a parent is more than exchanging fluids, in my view someone who's in their 50's shouldnt be thinking about starting a family, if statistically you will live to approx 76, the child will potentially have the burden of looking after you in old age, be left without a parent early in life and have significant generational issues and the younger partner will be left to carry on alone (not withstanding factors).

Ahh shut it old hag LOL...I agree that is why I say why date at 40? I got nothing to offer any women my age, would not date much younger and so why waste any women's time?

See the women in thier 30's want a hot lookin guy, that I am not. Women in thier 40's want an established guy who has status, attractive.
I work an everyday job that is not professional, I do not spend hundreds on my clothes. I am not attractive. So why would I bother to date? Nothing wrong with throwing in the towel early on instead of facing the reality years later.
Also more men in thier 40's are single because women our age want to be in control, they hate the fact men can be like them and set in thier ways. They want awesome sex. Alot of us can't give her that like the young hotties. We can think we can, which sadly too many men do think this way.
My problem in my 30's was always having women 18-25 liking me. Never women my age, as these women would tell me I was not good enough.
This day in age not every guy is worthy enough for women, in women's eyes. So in turn there are not enough worthy men available, more undesirables.

^^ Man, there's no "truth" to anything. That's how YOU feel about it. If you think that something's wrong, then do something - not for the sake of other people (women) but for yourself. If you're happy with the way things are today - great - though it doesn't sound like it...

Who the hell says it's bad? It ain't bad, unless she is a minor. Some younger women like older men. My best friend who is 46 has a girl friend of two years who is 28. They get along great. She doesn't want kids so it may work out for the long term. It's your life. Live it any way you want as long as nobody gets hurt and let the naysayers be damned

Well, because we older chicks are tired of seeing some chubby, balding dude our age thinking we're too over-the-hill to date - chubby, bald guys thinking we're too old - what's up with that?! This ain't rocket science. Oh yeah, well, uh, the young guys look better! Hey, hun, cougars are in vogue, haven't you heard?!!!! OK, it's really a non-issue. Date whomever makes you happy. Did I really need to tell you that?!!!!

There's something you need to know: my name is Chris Hansen, and we're doing a story on men who pick up underage girls online for...just kidding!

I tend to gravitate towards younger women. maybe it's my looks, but usually I have nothing in common with them. I'm an old guy. I like old TV shows and old music. The younger women usually can't relate.

There's nothing wrong with an older woman/younger guy. My philosophy is whatever works. If two people are happy, so long as it's legal, it's no one's business.

I find that it's the younger women who seem to have the biggest problem with the older man thing.

For me, it's not likely that I would find a much younger (12 years younger or more) woman attractive, unless she happens to be an "old soul". But that's rare, so I usually disqualify women under 30 in general. While learning about new stuffer from a younger woman is a benefit, it is outweighed by the lack of shared generational experiences.

Fluffy, uh, ah, works the other way too. Younger women look better than the older ones. Don't think your younger lovers can't tell the difference, they can.

If you are a forty year old guy, you should quit trying to date girls half your age.
I mean really, quit it. I dont need the competition ;)

Older men interested in younger women has been normal for hundreds of thousands of years. Ever since the feminist movement, though, women have been levelling the playing field. Unfortunately, the judgmental and derogatory epithets have gone a little too far - because really, it's fine for either gender to look for younger partners, as long as current legalities are respected and the people involved are willing participants.

It doesn't bother me on either side of the coin. I think it's great if you're our age and dating someone half yours. If you're single and you both click. Enjoy it for as long as it lasts. Have fun! Nothing wrong w/ it at all. I like younger women because most women my age I don't have anything in common with. I have dated women older than me though and they can be fun. It's all in the maturity level of the person. I'm 38 and don't give a damn what people think of me or what I date. That's the great thing about getting older. Every year you care less and less what people think. If you haven't noticed. I'm not politically correct.

I heard a recent study that said if a couple is within 9 years of each other's age, the union has a better chance of working out. I notice a lot of profiles for women in their mid-30s or even 39 who block guys over 40. I'm 43 but my lifestyle is closer to that of someone 30. I actually recommend a woman in her 20s block guys over 40 but when the woman is 38 and I'm too old her her, I wonder what's up.
