I don’t think anyone is obsessed with it but the fact is we’re seeing a lot of 20 something men pairing up with women in their 30s and 40s. What once was uncommon is becoming super commonplace and unremarkable


It's is not common. I don't have data to back up my claim. If any such surveys exist I will be shocked if more than 20% of divorced women 40+ are dating men 10 to 15 years younger.


It is common, at least among my friend group. And happening more and more


You are an outlier. Your group must be made up of Top 0.5 40+ divorced women in all categories.

Most good men in their forties who are single will be divorced and have kids who are still at home. They are both busy and if they are out there, they are generally looking for a real relationship. They quickly find that there are lots of women in their 30s who are marriage minded. Maybe they want kids. Maybe they don't. Maybe they're fine with assuming a stepmom role. But in any event, there are a lot of relationship-minded younger women out there. That's probably what good men in their 40s are going to gravitate towards when it comes to relationships. Of course for flings women in their 40s will have no shortage of options. But for real relationships, they will more likely be looking toward men in their 50s with kids who are already grown and out of the house. Or they get involved with men a decade younger, but that almost never works over the long term if she doesn't want children. 40 something is a complicated age.


Interesting.

Your defintion of a genuine relationship seems to be centered around women caring for men and their children. Women in their 40s are looking for more "genuine" than that.

I have never found younger men attractive, but I'd never date a man with children if I were single.

These divorced women dating younger are smart!


They are smart as long as they understand that it's a win win scenario solely for sex. I'm not going to introduce a 40 years old woman as a 26 years old man to my parents


And yet plenty of men do exactly that, men who are much more desirable than you. For example: harry styles, Aaron Taylor Johnson, Ryan gosling, nick jonas, Chris hemsworth, machine gun Kelly, mark estes, etc


Plenty of men in the real world hahaha. Hey dad this is Lisa she just turned 40 I love her so much. GtFO


Irrelevant. Most women over 40 and dating don't want to meet anyone's moms or dads, anyway.


Exactly. No one wants to meet your parents.

I am 47. I go on dates with 29-year-olds sometimes. I don’t look my age. Age 40 and 29 is not a huge gap at all.


What?!? I am a divorced 45 years old man. My minum is 35. I don't even know how I will approach a 29 years old. That's a big gap.


40 and 29 is not a big gap—you need to read better.

47 here: youngest I have dated is 28. That is a big gap.

Maybe 20-something men are just as materialistic as 20-something women and looking for an easy way out by dating someone more established. If you are attractive in your 40s and willing to carry the costs of dating, you have options.


And a ton of them are looking for the same things men in their 40s are- an attractive woman they can emotionally bond with.

Ask any man in his 20s about MILF. Regardless of how you look, it's a fantasy to sleep with a MILF. I am sure you are fully aware that it's not the way you look but it's about your age being older a MiLF it's fetish territory.


Are you saying men objectify women?

Don’t you think men who are on dating apps desiring no strings attached sex from women 20 years their senior are a self-selecting group of particularly objectifying men? Do you really think this specific group of men are there because your personalities are so dazzling and you’re just so darn educated?

By seeking out unserious men and cutting bait with those who are serious, a woman has objectified herself. The market is merely responding appropriately.


MOST men are seeking out no strings attached sex with women, as proven by the 40 year old balding dude on here bragging about doing that to 20 somethings. That’s just the male degenerate nature, and by their 40s, most women know the game very well, and can easily play it, especially against a 25 year old. The vast majority of marriages have started with men “just wanting sex” and then getting lured into a serious relationship by a woman who knows what she’s doing

OK so how is it a win to sleep with and potentially trap a degenerate loser into marriage if you’re lucky????? The good ones are self selecting OUT of this process. You get to pick from the bums, users, and losers. Yay?


Who said they’re degenerate? That’s your wishful thinking because you’re angry that women continue to have higher dating SMV throughout their life than the average man ever will. Certainly most of these 26 year olds are better adjusted and more of a catch (and, it must be said, hotter and fitter and better in bed) than the loser divorced dad who irritated his wife until she kicked him to the curb like trash

The PP said it right there in the post that they’re degenerates. I’m not angry, I’m more so sad and oppressed by second-hand embarassment.

Not really. For example two of the three Beckham boys are currently dating women ten years older than them. It’s kind of the cool thing now

DCUM Is hilarious, trying to push the narrative that 40-year-old pre menopausal women are raking up young 20-year-old dudes, it's not true, but go ahead with this fantasy. It's quite the contrary, with 40+-year-old men getting the younger women.

Generally, we don't approach them; they approach us. Many women look fabulous at 40. Look at Gisele Bundchen, Jessica Alba, and Beyonce. Other women in upper socioeconomic groups look like them.

That's true. One of my wife's friends friend is Getting married to a 32 years old man. She is 45 with 3 kids. There is def gender bias in our society because everyone who talks about the wedding talk about his age wondering what is finding so appealing in her. And she is a nice woman too. Her first husband committed suicide a few years ago. She was depressed for awhile and my wife said she is raving about this guy and have been trying for a baby together..I wish them luck. Love is beautiful. But clearly a lot of people have an opinion about it often pointing out that he can do much better than her. Her only fault for these people is her age..And by the way some of the comments are not all from men, some of the women are having similar comments which I find weird.

Look at the women that you have listed closely. Look at their hands and face. Their millions aren't saving them from the reality of life. We all age and that's okay. They are beautiful as 40+ women. They cannot and should not be compared to any woman who is under 30.or even up to 34.

I am not surprised by the sexist comments at all. And even in public if folks notice that she is much older they will probably say sexist stuff under their breath.

Only Gisele is single. She's dating a childless 36-year-old, and he's adorable. Good for her.

And they still look fabulous.
