Why are older men attracted to very young women when they are older?

Man here, this is it, full stop. I am 45 and its just a primal thing. I wouldn't date a 25 year old because I would feel foolish (and old around her) but from a pure attraction, all else being equal, younger women are super attractive.

And I am not picking on women, younger men have better bodies (and better stamina) than older men like me.

Of course, there is more to attraction than just a hot body, and I find lots of women my age hot. But lets not complicate why men of all ages find young women hot. It's simple biology.

This is true. I'm a 40-something woman and I can't stop fantasizing about my kid's twenty-something soccer coach, mostly because he's got an insane body.

OP here. My kid's soccer coach is 20 something and good looking dating a rich young woman now, but I have no actual attraction beyond just looking at a pretty face and body. No interest in hooking up, starting a relationship. Any of it. It's like admiring a statue of David.

Same, because I'm married! But I don't enjoy looking at guys my age or older in the same way.

Most women fall apart after 40

My kid has another coach also extremely good looking but in his 40s. It's easier to fantasize about him - not him exactly but someone like him is the dream. I don't crave the 25 year old at all. So I don't understand why men have this craving and even go all the way through to marriage.

Yes older women in general have lower sex drive. It has to do with the big M. Men tend to graduate lose sex drive.

So again, a woman has missed the last 30 posts about evolution and biology.

I beg to differ. I’m 51, good shape, good job, no drugs or alcohol. I always have and still prefer women my age +10 years. When I was 29, I dated a women 44. We were together for about 5 years.

Biology guy will tell you that you don't actually exist even though it's proven that survival of the species requires men to stick around for their children.

My husband says he is more attracted to women his age and older (and no he is not humoring me we are pretty open about these things). He says it feels weird to check out women who are so much younger.

What you said perfectly applies to us women too. Lots of younger men are more attractive than my middle age husband. It's not rocket science. I have never been attracted to older men. But I am reasonable and know that I have aged too and there is a time for everything. You can't hold on to youth forever. Also it would bother me to think that a younger man would be with me for my money or social status but find me unattractive. Some men are able to block that out I suppose. Or they are in denial about their looks. Us women are usually painfully aware of our reflection as we age.

Or maybe it has to do with this pill lots of us taking every day....

Married guy here. I really don’t have a horse in this race because I’m happily married and won’t ever be single again if I can help it. That said, I kind of understand men wanting to experience dating an attractive woman.

When I was younger I was completely invisible to women. It could have been my introversion, perspective, lagging social skills or the fact that I was a late bloomer. Who knows?

Fast forward a few decades and its very different for me. I’m still very similar to what I was then - dark hair, brown eyes, over 6 ft, in great shape. But, some attractive women (of all ages) now take interest in me and flirt. As a matter of fact I’m at a starbucks and a cute woman in her 20’s just looked me up and down and gave me a big smile. That NEVER happened when I was younger.

I will say that I’ve done well for myself but you’d never know it seeing me in public. I dress nice but don’t wear anything with a brand on it other than maybe shoes. I also don’t drive flashy cars, etc.
