2. She’s not old, but she’s old enough not to be naive. She’s really surprised by this?

35 year old man: I think it’s disgusting if a man were to even THINK about being interested in someone in their early 20s. They’d have nothing in common. She’s a child!!! Have they no shame!!!

I don’t think I’ll ever find twenty-year old women not attractive. What I already do, is find them immature. I’m in my forties, I’d never date one, but they are objectively nice to look at significantly more often than seventy-year-olds, for example.

Is it wrong that men like younger women?
Or did I miss something more shocking?

Isn’t that particular okcupid data actually about what age they found the opposite sex to be most attractive vs. what their own age is? That’s a very different questions than what age you’d like your romantic partner to be. Like objectively a 20-25 year old woman is going to be more attractive than she is at 40 but that doesn’t mean I’d want that 20-25 year old as a romantic partner.

Men are biologically wired to try to reproduce with young, fertile women, that statistically have a better chance of producing and raising healthy offspring. It’s literally just biology. Men and women should be treated as equals but we are not the same

What people find attractive and who they would want to build long term relationships with are not always the same.

My taste in women has changed as i got older. Seems to have stuck around 40 years but i still appreciate the beauty of a mid 20’s but I don’t want to date one.

Since age 35, I’ve always preferred women that were around 8 years younger than me. That difference has worked for me for over 30 years.

Worse than a 70-year-old man preferring a 20-year-old woman, it is a woman of that age accepting a relationship with a old man only for financial reasons

Men like younger women. This is something we know. Men and women have evolved to have different partner preferences.

When women are younger they want an older man. For money! She neglects to dwell on this potentially disgusting superficial aspect of women’s preferences.
Men do not choose partners for money. It’s looks. It’s fine to argue which is more superficial, but it’s nonsense to pretend that women’s choices aren’t superficial, because they clearly are.

Is this based on Di Caprio?

Maybe “attractive” isnt the best subjective base for an opinion here

Hey! You can’t generalize men based on Di Caprio’s chart

There are deep seated biological reasons behind what we find attractive. All of the signs of what men find attractive in the opposite sex (visually speaking) has to do with reproduction.
With that said, finding some age cohort of women the most physically attractive is NOT the same as wanting to date someone of that age cohort. If the questionaire elaborated more on the matter, they might have gotten a more enlightening set of answers.

Genetically, women go for maturity as it represents stability… men go for youth as it represents fertility. The selfish gene
Men are driven to pass their genes on, younger women have higher potential…. Not a shocker.

I say don’t full on hate the guys its probably something todo with Biology?
a younger woman is more likely to give a man of any age offspring, so baked in evolutionary motivations.
younger women might seek a slightly older guy for security and maturity, similar reasons a good provider is going to help raise a healthy family.
I can’t see the graph lol what’s it say? I assume 18
