Starving women of the attention they crave?

[Lightshade25]

Yeah Aguia I do agree but lets not make it look like a 25 year old woman dating a dude in his 40s or 50s is the norm. Like you said, most young women date fellow young men or a bit older (like 2, 3 or 4 years older).

I'm reposting this for all of you that skipped the fact given that 64% of straight relationships have the man over a year older, and only 23% have the woman over 1 year older. The man being older IS the norm. The average difference is between 2-3 years. Women being well older than the guy is deviant from the norm, much more so than when the man is much older.

Pretty liberal minded post here. Here are the stats on age difference for dating.

Yeah, that wont stop me from liking an older girl (which I currently do)

Weird convo you all are having. I personally think dating a younger man is gross. Only done it twice myself (1-2 years younger than me) but that felt weird but luckily over quick. I prefer guys no more than 5 years older. Better if not over 28. Heh. My guy is 27 thank God and just older than me a good amount. My other serious relationship was a guy 3 weeks older than me. So yeah I prefer older but not too much.

They crave men with power and status. Johnny Depp is 53 and no doubt 90% of the women on this forum would sleep with him.

Thank Got for that 10%

Not much older true. Just saying me marrying a guy over 5 years will take a miracle.

Yeah, men just delude themselves.
