PrintableHere's my issue with the older men/younger women thing: I work in a maternity clinic, and occasionally I'll have clients who are 14, 15, 16 with men--the fathers of their babies--who are 25 and older. And sometimes they've been together awhile before getting pregnant, so you can pretty much assume they've been having sex since she was like, 13, 14 yrs old. 
I understand girls looking up to and wanting to be with older guys. I understand that some girls are more physically and mentally mature than their biological age. But what I don't get are the men--and they ARE men--who go for that age. One client I saw yesterday still has the body of a 14 yr old (she just turned 16 last month), very very thin, no hips or breasts, very quiet and shy. The father of the baby is 25....  It may be a generalization, but the guys who tend to go for the really young ones, in my opinion, have some self-esteem/control things goin' on.[Edited 9/3/05 11:01am] | |

I'll agree. More often than not, absolutely. Oh shit, my hat done fell off | |

[Edited 9/3/05 11:01am] Definitely. Which is why I said in my initial post as long as all are of legal age. Really I mean as long as all are consenting adults. I know age is just a number, but when you hit that 16-21 range the levels of maturity can vary widely from person to person. It's troubling. [Edited 9/3/05 11:05am] |

[Edited 9/3/05 11:05am]  I'm all for young people exploring their sexuality, I'm no prude. But it seems like the best situation is with same age group experimentation, where the experience levels may be similar and the manipulation less likely. | |

cinnamonjo said: Im in college right now (read- YOUNG), and though i may be attracted to college age dudes from time to time, the older guys-- 24-28 get me going even more. I've never seriously dealt with someone my age. Ever.
Not even that i prefer it that way, its just something that naturally happens. I just seem to get further romantically with the older guys. Younger guys, and guys closer to my age, often end up in that irrevocable I SEE U AS A BROTHER/COUSIN section. And we all know what that means. No 
 Leave the young dudes and the guys around your age alone. Try dating older you might like it. Trust me, I speak from expereince. Play on Playette  . | |

I'm diggin' the greater acceptance of the older woman/younger man scenario, too. It's about time!  | |

Slave2daGroove said: I've been asking general opinions on this and it varies. Most are fine with it but some people are saying the same as above, "what do they have to talk about" and if it's nothing then people assume it's just the sex.
So I've got my eye on this little 24 year old... the guy i'm seeing is 9 years younger (as stated above) and yes...the sex is fantastic but more importantly the emotional connection is there. we have no lapses in conversation and actually fight for talk time. his life is so different then mine and we are both curious to learn about each others culture. honestly i don't notice the age difference at all...he is wise beyond his years and because of the hardships he has grown up with it has matured him quickly. me on the otherhand...i act way younger than my 32 years and look about 26-27...so it works well...i never imagined i would date a man so much younger but it is working for now.... i guess what i'm saying to everyone is never say never...there ARE exceptions to every rule. you're only as old as you feel..............so how old do i feel 
Now that food has replaced sex in my life, I can't even get into my own pants. | |
