why are guys always looking only for younger women?

I'm a young looking, fit, financially independent woman who just happens to be 66. All the profiles I've read of guys around my age are only looking for women about 15 years younger than them. Well I'm not interested in anybody 81! What's wrong with trying your own age??

    a guy feels attractive and "cool" when he is with a younger women.

    their theory on it is why have an 04 car when you could have an 09 for just as much.

    The guy who first posted is wrong. It's in fact the other way around. WOMEN mature more quickly mentally then MEN. It's a scientific fact. And to the question, I believe this to be relatively true, and if we look at the opposite, e.g. Hugh Hefner, an 82 year old man with 3 girlfriends, one of which is 22 (4 years older then me!), why are they with him? Cos' he's hugh hefner and he is very famous and rich. It can work out this way in both sexes, not just older women. However, back in an normal reality, younger women/men can actually be attracted to older sexes you know, it's not unheard of. Don't generalize.

    It's a lot of things...

    - Control

    - Intellectual Superiority

    - Sexual Attraction

    - Better Child-Bearing Ability

    - Trying to Feel Young/Cool

    - Same Maturity Level

    Why don't you try for someone 15 years younger than you? I specialize in younger men, so obviously they aren't all only looking for younger women. (of course I'm not 66 so I can't relate on that aspect).

    Younger does not equal better.

    It depends. If you're a teenager, a guy often likes younger girls because they will have less experience, so if the guy is bad it wont be as bad as if he was with an older girl. But thats for teenagers,

    Maybe for control

    Because your expiration date stopped at age 35. Sorry, but this is FACT. Men age slowly, whilst a woman by age 40 looks withered and torn up, especially if they led a vicious and sordid lifestyle of sex, booze, and drugs. This type of damage to a woman's body speeds the aging machine by ten years for every five you age. Women do NOT have the luxury of aging gracefully as men do as they grow older. I'm 49 and looking GOOD! All my g/f's are at least 5-10 years younger than me. Don't blame me....young chicks DIG older men! Unless you are plumped up with tons of plastic surgery all around....geezers will be the best you can get. Best of luck!

    Source(s): I embrace my manhood!

    Find a younger guy who wants an older woman. Either that or find a older guy and marry for money.

    BTW this question reminds me of the song "Dreams" by Kenny Chesney. :)

    Because guys always want what they think is better and a lot of guys think that younger girls are better...

    Older guys like younger Women so they can control them. That is all.
