Where does the idea that "older women" can't be attractive come from? (wife, attractiveness)

Thought about posting this in the topic regarding the French President and his wife but thought this could have it's own discussion. There were a few people in there being very rude/mean about it, saying all the kind of ugly/nasty things about his wife and her age. They aren't in relationships with them, yet they feel it's okay to say some horrible things about how the men that date/marry older women have issues, and even go on to talk about the older woman's body that just HAS to be bad due to her age. Why do they care?

It certainly is hardly always accurate. It depends on a lot of things. I get that age can effect one's attractiveness but that doesn't mean they still can't be. My woman is 47 yet still is very attractive and and does eat right, exercises, and looks after herself, which can certainly make one look way better than a woman that may be substantially younger yet does the opposite, especially in certain areas. For example, in the topic I started about what do you find most physically attractive about your partner I stated my woman has REALLY great legs and I can definitely say if I took a pic of just her legs I doubt anyone would say "oh man, those are the legs of a 47 year old, definitely!" lol. I just find it odd how there are guys - particularly younger ones that just like to spew how "ugly" and "gross" some woman must be just because she's a bit older. Even at 47 she's hardly "old" lol.
