Why can't you understand the simple idea that:

(1) Men are attracted, above and beyond all else, to looks; and

(2) Men are attracted to youth.

Youth and beauty. That's what men most desire in women. Michael Jackson didn't make a song called "Pretty Thing." It's called "Pretty Young Thing." That's what men want and that's not changing any time in the next 100,000 years.

The older a woman gets, the less "youth" she has. And the attraction men have for her weakens.

Any credibility that you may (or may not) have had was completely lost when you cited MJ singing about hot chicks. LOL

True, but he also needs to look pretty decent in most cases in this league. Make no mistake - that's not Anna Nicole & Marshall's league!

A woman, on the other hand, can be any of those things and it will make absolutely no difference in terms of the amount of male attention she receives. That is exclusively dictated by her looks.
Bajan just dropped a real gem.

Why cant you understand that PEOPLE are attracted to youth and beauty. This does not equate or even come close to the premise that women or men for that matter are washed up after 25. Or admitt that everyone ages and after a certain age, although we all may be attracted to or fantasize about youth and beauty, we become attracted to other aspects of a person besides whats on the outside.

Would men rather have sex with young women, sure, would women rather have sex with young men, sure. Most of us can distinguish between sex and wanting a meaningful realtionship and building a life with someone. Those that just want the sex will be drawn toward youth for as long as they can get it. But if your not wealthly, as you age you will lose the ability to get youth. Because believe it or not unless your loaded the average 18-25 yr. old will be attracted to other 18-25 yr. olds not 40 to 50 yr olds.

Your right the topic was women being past their prime after 25.
This was supported by pictures of rich older men with younger women
The point was brought that older rich women weren’t seen publically with younger men
Which led to older rich women often solicited escorts
That’s about the point you took it back to your tired old mantra
Yup, you mentioned so called old rich dudettes looking to pay for sex, which, is close to inexistent really and I mentioned the reason why it is close to inexistent but you didn’t like it so let’s carry on if you want…women are passed their prime after 25 or not? I believe they are for reasons already stated. Are men pass their prime after 25? Well, maybe you can start a thread about it.

Agree. But superficial men ONLY focus on a woman’s looks just as superficial women ONLY focus on a man’s wallet, his car, status, etc. But we can’t deny the fact that beauty plays an important role in men just like a man’s economic status plays an important role for women.

That’s right. A man who is not wealthy will lose his ability to date younger women the same way a woman pass her prime (one that had children, over 25, over weight, etc.) will lose her ability to look attractive according to what society has set as a beauty standard for women.

Couldn't have said it better.

MEN are attracted to youth and beauty. Women are attracted to confidence, status and power.

How many times do I have to say that I did not say that? I did say, however, that women hit their primes at 25, and from there the inevitable decline to sexual irrelevance begins.

And for men that age comes much, much later.

We learn to appreciate other aspects of a person beyond what's on the outside. It's the attraction that causes us to want to learn more about that person in the first place.

Men would love to sleep with young women, sure.

Women would rather sleep with a 41-year old Harold Ford, Jr. or a 43-year old Corey Booker than their 24-year old male staff members.
