Notes from the podcast
The idea that men prefer younger women is a stereotype that’s increasingly being challenged today. Statistics show that age-hypogamous relationships, which involve a woman who is older, are on the rise. In fact, 34% of women aged 40-60 have dated a younger man and a significant majority report high satisfaction levels in these relationships.
Unpacking the Myths
It’s a common misconception that younger men aren’t genuinely interested in older women, but the reality is quite different. Younger men are often drawn to the maturity, confidence, and stability that older women bring to a relationship. It’s not just about age; it’s about the qualities that come with life experiences.
10 Reasons Men Love Older Women
**1. Established Confidence:** Older women often know who they are and are comfortable in their skin. This confidence is beautiful.
**2. Clear Direction:** They usually know what they want from life, both in their careers and personal paths.
**3. Emotional Maturity:** Older women tend to have a better understanding of relationships and what makes them work.
**4. Independence:** They have their own lives and passions, making them less needy and more exciting partners.
**5. Stability:** Emotional, career and financial stability are more common in older women, offering a sense of security.
**6. Lower Insecurities:** With age comes a decrease in insecurities and self-doubt, leading to healthier dynamics in relationships.
**7. Meaningful Conversations:** Life experiences often make conversations with older women more enriching and engaging.
**8. Sexual Maturity:** Older women are usually more comfortable with their sexuality and can communicate their needs.
**9. Authenticity:** They are less likely to play games and more likely to be honest and straightforward.
**10. Inner and Outer Beauty:** With age often comes grace and beauty that is not solely defined by physical appearance but also by the substance and depth of character.

Conclusion
The reasons younger men are drawn to older women go beyond superficial attractions. The traits that mature women embody appeal to men of all ages, but particularly to
When a man has a woman his age he acts foolish. They want a surrogate mom when they go after older women.
My boyfriend and I are 17 years apart. He is 30, I am 47. He is more mature than most older men I have met.
Him and I have the best relationship and are extremely happy together.
I have been dating a very mature, motivated, and confident man that is 26 (!!!) years younger than me for almost 6 months. He pursued ME, and as much as I tried to explain to him that this would never work he is proving wrong. I lost my husband over 20 years ago and had only dated once or twice so I feel like I am kind of back in that age range. I do have two adult daughters, who are both very successful in their own right. I am just taking this one day at a time and enjoying… Read more »
This is very informative. Now I know why I’m getting hits on a dating platform from so many younger men. I have been avoiding them. I’m thinking why on earth would they want an older woman when they could a young chic anytime. lol!
Ask them. I do.
Seven years up, seven years down. All cultural references will be similar.
just interesting…Emmanuel Macron (46), President of France and his wife Brigitte (71)
I am 60 and my partner is 38 we both know what we want and where we want to go. We have such an amazing connection. I was actually never wanting to speak with anyone younger because I didn’t think we would have anything in common. Yet we have such an amazing relationship that I never thought I would find. Age is just a number. We need to just give people a chance. Get to know each other and see if you want a future together.
Thank you your encouraging words, I’m not alone in this, my relationship is the same as yours. How long have you been with him?
I think the 10-year younger guideline is limiting. It is about the individual and their maturity level.
I agree. I’ve recently started seeing a successful business owner who is 46 and i am 61. He is more mature with life experience and not on social media or dating websites. Our thoughts, morals, values align more than anyone I’ve ever met. We have not disagreed about one single thing. He says he cannot hold a substantive conversation with women his age, and men my age typically are past sexual peak. At first I was skeptical of the age difference. But like everyone always says age is just a number and all our friends are happy we met.
My stepfather was 23 years younger than my mother. They were married for 45 years until his death.
10 years …. nah!! go even younger!!
It’s good to know why younger men are attracted to me. Thanks for sharing this information.
I agree with this! I have had younger men in my life most of my life, 1 married to, we split up after 17 years, the next man lasted 15 years, My current relationship I wasn’t expecting, we became friends and fell for each other, we have been together for 6 months now, we are living together now, we have a 20 year age gap. We have people talking, saying because it’s a new relationship that’s why we are so happy, although some others see how happy we are they support us completely.
My sister in law is 20 years older than her husband and they are rock solid. They’ve been married now for 25 years.
I totally agree, I prefer men who are 10 years or less younger than me. They are healthier, more active and I probably won’t outlive them. Now, just to find one…
We are not too far in age difference. The problem that I have with him he is not a great communicator. and is very difficult to have him talk.
t know what hey want. m
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I am actually dating a younger man and I have reached a point of no return. I don’t know what to expect from him, and there is a lack of open communications.
My husband was 10yrs older than me. We divorced whilecimwas still young. Since then I have only dated a man my age or older once. Now that I am retired but still find that there’s a lot of life yet to experience, I find that men from a few years younger than me and up are “too old” for me. I need to go at least close to ten years younger to find someone has the energy to keep up,with me! Not ready to sit on the porch and/or play cards yet!
