Men prefer women between the ages of 20 and 24, regardless of their own age

So it's impossible to find a woman age 20-24 with an intellect? You're not exactly making older women look good with your "young women are brainless ditzes" stereotype.

Anyway,

Perky boobs and smooth skin and age 22 >>> saggy boobs and wrinkly skin and great intellect and age 42.

Sorry, that's just the way it is.

If you're looking for marriage material, you ALSO want age 20-24.

That way you can date for a few years and she's still fertile enough to have several kids after the marriage.

Um, you deliberately cut off the rest of my post where I said women in that age range can have intellect and emotional depth.

Why are there these threads about young college aged girls in a mom and dad forum where most posters are 40+.

How is this relevant?

And most women "prefer" men (physically) who are around the age of 28.

So what?

As a 50 year old guy with a lot of over 40 male friends, I can tell you that this is a lot of bunk.

Yes, many men may prefer young women, but I can assure you that there are many older men who want a woman closer to their experience level. While the sex may be good or better with a younger woman, most of us have been around long enough to understand that sex isn't everything (contrary to what the checkout aisle magazines would have you believe). If you want to have someone to share your life with, you want someone who is closer to your maturity level and has shared interests with you. While it is not unusual for guys to date younger women, most of the guys I know who are 40+ are looking for 30+ women, not 20-something women.

It's because there are a handful of aging, single, sexually frustrated men who hate women and blame them for their miserable lives instead of taking responsibility for themselves. They start these threads in the hopes that women will come to hate themselves as must as those men hate themselves.

Um, you mean the part where you dismissed it as unlikely, and described them as almost certainly immature?

I didn't say it was unlikely at all. I said there tends to be some immaturity. You can have intellect but still be less mature than someone 10 or 15 years older than you.

Ask your friends what age they find most attractive.

Ask your friends what age they can realistically achieve.

Those are different answers.

Those 40-something guys are not looking for 20-somethings because they can't get them, not because they don't want them.

If through some miracle they could get a hot 22 year old, do you think they'd say "nah I don't want that I want someone with experience and maturity"? If they do... they're lying.

"That's not to say a person can't be emotionally/intellectually engaging between 20 and 24" -- means you think it is unlikely.

You said what you said. Own it.

You're seeing what I said through your own lens, and revealing your own biases -- you're the one who thinks women that age can be emotionally/intellectually engaging, so that's how you interpret things.

What do you mean by "get"? Have sex/an affair with, or build a life with?

I am sure most men would like to have torrid affairs with women that age, but as a PP noted, most men in their 40s have actually lives that they want their partners to complement.

Is too complex a thought for you?

It is, because even though he's a 40-something man, emotionally he's still 19, frustrated that the really hot girls aren't interested in him. Arrested development is so sad, I hope OP can get help with it some day and find a way to be happy.
