[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And as PP said it creates a weird power imbalance, it’s almost as if older men prey on the nievete of young women.[/quote]

And the women feed the old men's fragile egos, because they are so easily impressed (with world experiences and material status).

If you have ever had child in their young 20's, you should recognize why they don't make an appropriate life PARTNER.

But maybe this set up most appeals to men who don't seek an equal partner?[/quote]

None of the men on this thread who are bragging (?) about dating women much younger than them do not sound as though they’re looking for an equal partner, or in fact a partner at all.  They are openly objectifying these young women and with them it seems exclusively for their appearance (along with a fetishization of youth and a seeming hatred and/or resentment of older women).  It’s a very tired trope.[/quote]

Not me. I'm mid-50s dating a late-20s women who is finishing her PhD in STEM. I like that she is smart and honest, she likes that I treat her like a human being, and not a piece of meat as guys her age do. Our dates mostly involve cooking together and hours of conversation. Sometimes we go to a museum, or go for a hike. [/quote]

That’s only how young assholes act. There are plenty of late 20s men looking for meaningful relationships with the women they will marry. I wonder what’s wrong with her that she can’t figure out how to date them and get her life on track. [/quote]

I've dated at least 10 women in their 20s and hear the same complaints from every single one of them about men their age. [/quote]

What do you think they are going to tell you? Good thing you can’t hear what they tell their girlfriends.?[/quote]
