[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can agree date younger?  I'm 50 but date 35 yo and up[/quote]

Genuine question. At 50, what can you offer a man who is only 35? Aren't you concerned that a 35 years old can't find a woman his age and has to date someone 35 years older? What makes you so different from a 35 years old woman.

I find this trend of women advocating for dating younger men interesting[/b]. We men hear all the time from women that we are immature, we are man-child etc. So suddenly when you are 50, the 35 years old man is not immature or a man-child anymore?  [/quote]

I do too. I'm 54, and happily married, fortunately, but if I weren't, I would have zero interest in a 30 something man. [/quote]

Yep. I have a 20-year old son. And 30 year old nephews.

Just gross. Frickin gross [/quote]

Here is my opinion about this. I am 46 so I am genX. A lot of the women advocating for dating younger are fellow genX women. Now my theory is that feminist did a good job with millennial men. These millennial men don't follow  gender norms like those  us genX'ers. And these men also are not necessarily interested in having kids as much we did. So I think it's a win win situation for all those involved.[/quote]

I’m mid-40s dating a man in his late 30s. That’s it exactly. I am not encountering the same issues with men in this age range. Obviously there are exceptions, but by and large there is an emotional maturity and self-awareness in the younger men. They are kinder and less selfish. This guy had a vasectomy because he doesn’t want kids and I think dating older women is a way to guarantee compatibility on that front. He is hot and nice. It may not be forever but it’s relaxing.
