No.  I dated women half my age between marriages.  At one time there was a stigma that casual sex was immoral.  That is gone.  Many young women date broadly, out of impulse, curiosity, and convenience.  There is attraction, even if it is not the basis for a long-term relationship.

Perhaps 10%-20% women in their twenties are specifically attracted to older men who are fit, tall enough, with a full head of hair.  It is not about money.  It is about having your shit together.  An older man takes charge, makes specific plans, stays in touch, shows up with a functioning car, has reservations, and pays for convenient parking.  It all flows smoothly so the girl and relax and enjoy.  Younger men are inexperienced and disorganized.  They suggest "hanging out" and don't follow up.  It is a relief to have an older man take responsibility and go on a "real" date.[/quote]

Ya, but if you then ask your 20-something date to split the bill, you won't be seeing her again.  It's not just that you have your shit together - she's dating you because she sees potential for a soft life provided by you.  Tall doesn't matter as much as some men think.  If you were a fit fifty-year-old dirtbag climber living out of your van, or a fit ski patroller living in a studio apartment, twenty-year-olds would not date you, because you have nothing to offer them.

Well, few women would be comfortable splitting the bill. I wouldn’t and I’m 48. But if he expected any of these 20s women to reciprocate (eg organize something herself for him, or even get a sex toy), he’ll get zero . It’s one way relationships . He’s not setting himself up for a success but will always just used for the benefits he provides.  [/quote]
