See, this chart is assuming women care primarily about earning potential. Given the fact that a man in his twenties has every potential to be earning the same as the early thirties guy at that age (in fact, more since men who are married tend to earn more than their single counterparts) why not snag him when he's young and good looking. You'll still get the benefit of that early 30s and so on income.

Besides, i think most women in their twenties (myself and my friends at least) are mostly concerned with appearance. Of course, there should be a baseline- college educated with a job is a good thing. But most guys in their twenties already have that.

You exactly prove my point actually. Either you get these high earning potential young men when you both are in your twenties. When you reach your 30s the ones that are still not married have a way larger pool of women to choose from, what they don't have in physical attractiveness, though frankly I don't see it I think they still look good in their 30s, they make up for in their highly increased income.

The pool for eligible men will grow much much smaller.

From my personal observations though, I have never seen a 34 year old guy with a rising income be single and then shoot straight for the 25 year old to date and marry. 34 year old fresh law school grads or something usually are engaged to or married to a 32-33 year old law school girlfriend. OR a 34 year old guy is married with children to a girl he met when they both were young and broke in their mid-late twenties.

Single rich 34 year old men, are single by choice and are therefore players. A 24 year old girl will sleep with such a guy, for sure, and enjoy the perks of dating him and going to nice restaurants, but she would not marry him because he would not be marriage material to begin with.

Now, if there's a 34 year old attorney who is recently divorced with one kid, and he is looking to date seriously and find wife 2, he could try with a 24 year old girl but she would most likely NOT want a baby daddy. A 32-34 year old woman would most likely marry a divorced attorney with child.

I dont think I did prove your point, and I think if you think I did, you might not be quite understanding what all was said.

Men are less physically attractive, by a large margin, in their thirties. This is undisputed.

For most women in their twenties, physical attractiveness is the most important thing. Which is why a really hot, young guy can walk into any bar and get laid that night- have his pick of the women.

Unfortunately for men in their thirties, their attractiveness levels take a BIG hit. There was a board about that on here just the other night.

Some women will be able to tolerate that hit, so long as it is supplanted by income- or, depending on their desperation levels,regardless.

But many wil not, especially those at the top of the pyramid who can date a guy in his twenties who is also earning a good salary.

Alright. You win. Younger men prefer older women. Mid twenties women prefer looks over everything else. Women in their 30s will have just as easy a time as men in their 30s dating. No one will date those ugly 30 something men.

The single 34 year lawyer is more likely to date a 27 to 28 year old than an over 30 year old when he starts getting serious about marriage.

Oh gosh- you seem to be extrapolating a lot!

The point is, early 30s men have just as much dating value as early 30s women (if not less, given the innate laws of that dating pool)

Plenty of people, both male and female, choose to date younger or older. It's a fallacy and a joke to think it's only older men dating younger women and not vice versa- genuinely delusional!

The most highly desirable age for women for marriage is mid to late thirties, under 25 still considered immature.

Whether she wants to date him is a different issue.

Thats a 7 year gap. Would a 27 year old woman want to marry a 34 year old lawyer when she can marry a 28 year old law student?

i would have dated the lawyer.

With their shared relationship and history they grow old together and that history makes up for the woman's fading looks as the couple ages together. All those examples of prince William and Kate Middleton proves this out.

For older men who don't meet their partners when young as they age they still go for the more attractive Younger wonen. George clooney is a prime example, isn't Amal like 20 years younger?

Amal IS much younger than George but at 37 years of age, she is hardly in the bloom of her youth. George had previously dated and bedded many beautiful women in their prime but the two times he danced his way down the aisle he did with a. an older woman and b. a woman who is past her prime. He could've married any of his previous girlfriends but he chose to settle down with a woman who exhibits intelligence and is probably a better companion to him. She is attractive and younger than him, but she is no Kate Upton.

First thing other things definitely matter besides looks such as personality and compatibility. It is not incomprehensible that George could pick any woman he wanted and he picked a woman with all attributes. However she had a certain level of beauty and is much younger than his 54 years of age. That is a 17 year age gap. The reverse is highly unlikely.

Hmm. Let's see I am 27 years old.

I meet a 34 year old lawyer that is in the peak of his career and has proven himself in big law. He is able to wine and dine me and I enjoy myself while with him. He is not ugly. No way I will date hm, never.

I want the be with the law student who I don't know whether will be able to get a third year internship yet and still has not paid off his student loans. But he is hot hot hot.

I would date the law student, but I am definitely not going to reject the 34 year old either. And life in a way would be much easier if I picked the lawyer eventually to marry, we won't be two first year lawyers out of school struggling to prove ourselves at the same time.

Ok let's look at okcupid data

http://thesocietypages.org/socimages/2015/07/03/ok-cupid-data-on-sex-desirability-and-age/

[Anonymous]

Women at most ages state a preference to date men who are up to eight years older or eight years younger:

…we can see that women have more pursuers than men until age 26, but thereafter a man can expect many more potential dates than a woman of the same age. At the graph’s outer edge, at age 48, men are nearly twice as sought-after as women.

Okcupid data for you
