Well that's good.  Better brush up on your intellectual prowess and quit sourcing People magazine.  Despite your hypothesis, I doubt your looks alone are going to have those 20 year old hotties flocking to you even though  "you are getting better with age".  Whatever that means. [/quote]

Many of my male friends in their late 30s and 40s have no problem with this. Their looks are average, but they're also well-spoken, confident, and just plain interesting people to talk to. If you think of the typical 20 year old guys that they compete with for the attention of a 20's hottie, it's no surprise they have success in getting her.

No, a 40-year old guy who is a slob and boring will have no such luck, but most of the non-married guys I know in that age range aren't like that. Maybe they take mroe care of themselves because they need to, being single.[/quote]

Um, no.  As a 25 year old I can tell you that most 40 year old dudes hitting on me and my friends totally gross us out, no matter what scenario you saw in a porn or Woody Allen film.  Sorry to break it to you, but women care about looks just as much as men, and 40 year old men simply cannot compete with a 23 year old guy- there is no comparison in terms of body, face, all that.   Not to mention the social stigma of your friends thinking you're a loser because you're willing to entertain the attention of some old creeper.[/quote]

I am not the PP, but I can't understand how you are using your preference (and that of your small circle of friends) to generalize when there are so many examples out there everyday, not to mention the 'easy wins' from celebrity pop culture:

...and of course the many skirts that chased George Clooney. And if you think these unions don't last long:

Now, aside from the celebrity pop culture, I can tell you that as an early 30s single guy, I can't compete against men in their 40s for 20something girls; simply because these girls always go for the benefits of financial and emotional stability, especially if the guy is serious about them. Whether or not that applies to you is for you to decide, but in my 30 odd years of experience on this Earth, it is very normal for college and early career girls in their 20s to partner up with men in their 40s and above.

Are you sure you have much experience with dating, and with men in general?[/quote]

Um...yes? This is total bullshit. I am a 20 something, beautiful woman and there is no fucking way I'd hook up with anyone over 35. And neither would my friends. You live in fucking la la land. You know why? Because we all grow old. And I have enough experience to know that when I'm 40 and he's 53, we're not living in the same world. He's going to be old!![/quote]
