Summary:
Christian Rudder, a blogger for OKCupid, did a fascinating study in 2010 using the site’s data on men and women’s age preferences. Rudder found that women’s desirability peaks at 21, and that not only do men state their age preferences very young, they tend to message younger women. They try to attract younger women when they are online, and even usually prefer dating younger than their stated preferences. In other words, according to Rudder, men in their 30’s spend as much time messaging teenage girls as women their own age. Yikes.

The article itself is a fascinating read on the raw data, but it doesn’t really get into the reasons that the age gap might exist. So here are nine, um, reasons people have proposed that men go for younger women. They are...to say the least, very interesting! Whether they want to date younger women or simply just attract younger women, the reasons sure are interesting!

Maturity: younger women like older men because not only are they more established and secure, but they are also more wise and mature. They are done with their younger, single ways and don’t tend to play as many games as most younger men do. So if you are an older man and want to attract younger women, make sure that your maturity is in check!

They know how to treat a lady: younger women who go on dates with older men like the fact that the man knows how to treat a lady - whether it be by holding the door for her or just holding up a conversation that is both mature and stimulating. Older men are also more old fashioned and traditional, and are more prone to treating younger women with respect and traditional values, which is difficult to find in the dating world this day and age!

They know what they want: older men are more established and more sure of what they want. If they want to have a relationship that is more serious, or are just looking for a casual date, they will be upfront about it. Most older men avoid playing games and are more upfront and honest when they are on a date with younger women. They are straightforward, honest, and aren’t afraid to tell women what they want and what they are feeling. They don’t beat around the bush and would much rather be honest about what they want than lead a younger woman on.
