| How Old A Woman Is Too Old? by hioman(op): 6:46pm On Dec 05, 2015 |
I'm especially interested in getting the male point of view, but I'd welcome the female opinions, too. How much does a woman's age factor into whether men find her attractive? Probably few heterosexual males don't appreciate an eyeful of a good-looking 20-year-old woman, but at what approximate age, if any, do women stop being ogle worthy? If it matters, here's my situation: I'm 53 and divorced 2 years after 12 years of marriage to a man with major mental health issues. I stay active--working out, healthy eating, etc.--and am in good shape with a good BMI. I don't know if I'm attractive or not, but I'm not ugly. I take care of my appearance. That should do it, I think. Are men in general actually attracted to women my age? I ask because the few single men my age I've met/dated have really been looking for women who are substantially younger (say, ten years or more). I get how young = attractive. It just seems like women my age are pretty much ignored by most men unless they're married to them (and sometimes even then they still go out looking for 'fresh fish'). I know there's a lot that goes into the mix--personality, zest for living, confidence, etc., and maybe I'm warped by my few experiences. But given a choice and all else being equal, wouldn't most men over, say, 40, prefer dating women who are substantially younger? Just trying to put things in perspective. Thanks! |

Personally, I would hold off dating until the kids are grown, unless I considered the dangers of them growing up without a father to be more than the dangers of casual hook ups. just my opinion sha. |

hioman:its all about what the man is looking for. but emotionally mature men will appreciate you, I.e if u still see yourself as been beautiful. its all about your mentality. . |

It depends on the guy's view. A 40yrs old lady can still be attractive to a 60yr old man |
