Aside from my brothers, whose girlfriends get younger every year and don't fit this mold, I don't know many men but I know of two very successful, confident men in their mid 50s who resist advances of younger women, even those they think are attractive. They both say they're just more attracted to women their own age or no younger than their 40s. They both admit they like to look but they know what they want and hold out for it. I didn't believe it at first til I saw it with my own eyes. I didn't think there was a man on earth who could resist someone 20 to 30 years younger than themselves. Could it be I know the only two in existance? Seriously, I wonder if this attitude is more common than we realize.
I shouldn't have doubted. My sister doesn't believe that I have no desire to ever date a younger man. She's all into that. In her 50s she dates men in their 30s.
Well, when was dating, I had many younger men who were not interested in women their own age and they routinely dated older women. I was approached more by younger men than men my own age or older. I ended up marrying a younger one (11.5 years younger)
Women 20 to 30 years younger are looking for a sugar daddy. Men seeking women 20-30 years younger are looking to recapture their youth. A woman 20-30 years younger than I will not understand me, my generation, my cultural context, etc. Love is grand, but understanding intensifies love. I would not date someone that much younger than I. They only become eye candy, which heightens libido briefly. Long-lasting, sustaning relationships for the most part are created when people associate with those within a narrower age range.

ROFLMFAO!!!
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you! I REALLY needed that laugh!
I also see a number of problems if the age difference is significant. I just got a message today that someone had visited my online profile. I'm 60 years old and she's 28 and very attractive judging by her photo. As I've mentioned before my main activity seems to be from young women whose main language is obviously not english. This is the sort of situation in which a young woman is looking for an American male just so they can get into this country legally.
Of course I'm attracted to young beautiful women because it's wired into the brains of men and it's a natural desire but I think that both men and women need to realize that as they get older they tend to have less in common with someone much younger and that includes much more than physical appearance.
In my opinion someone who is looking for a partner who is much younger is probably fixated on sexual attraction and not much more. If this is the only thing that's going on it's not going to be a long lasting relationship.

Well, it kinda depends on what they look like... Many can't even hold a candle to women twice their age and more.
