OK, so a while back I posted a thread about if guys found age-appropriate innocence in females to be a turn-on or a turn-off...lol
So this time around, I'll ask the same question, except with the shoe on the other foot: do ladies find (age appropriate) male innocence to be attractive? Or not?
For the purpose of this thread, male innocence can mean innocent both in the sense of being virginal, as well as temperament- or personality-wise. For example, the pure / innocent "altar boy" stereotype.
Note: also just to clarify, when I say "innocent", I don't necessarily automatically mean the same as a guy who is a doormat or a pushover, either.

Reason: Corrected typo
Adults are not innocent without an accusation. Virgin adults are not innocent, they are just virgins. And all other definitions pertaining to adult innocence are probably more accurately described as ignorance.

I would respectfully disagree on the bolded portion above When you see just the kind of "innocent adult" I'm talking about, believe me, you'll *know* what I mean! lol

I find sophistication and experience much more attractive. Innocence is for children.
From Mark 10:14b-15 (NIV):
"For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the
truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."
Not to sound snarky lol, but the highlighted portion above would seem to indicate that in order to become "more perfect", one should paradoxically become "more childlike" (I am assuming here that "more childlike" is meant, in terms of a child's inherent "innocence".)

Same here, but then again... I'm not a young girl. The last time I recall dealing with innocence was in grade school when my admirer was bringing me flowers from his Grandma's garden.

I guess what I mean is, an adult male who might be described as "pure of heart". A good movie example of what I mean in terms of male innocence might be Leonardo Di Caprio's portrayal of Phillippe / King Louis XIV in "The Man In the Iron Mask", if you've maybe perhaps seen that movie.
I knew a guy who was a virgin into his 40's. He married the first girl he did (religious & cultural reasons). I believe they were married barely a year before the marriage ended in murder/suicide. So, if a guy hasn't been with a woman well into his adult life I think that the "innocence" associated with virginity isn't all that is going on with him. There could be very serious underlying psychological problems too.
