Guys, why are we attracted to older women?

[valerie]

I consider myself currently attached, but I'm learning a lot from this thread. Thank you to the OP for a sensitive presentation and to the guys for their thoughtful comments.

Hi there,

In my honest opinion; I think the reason why younger guys are attracted to older women is because mature cougars have an incremental boost in knowledge and that to me is sexy. It's not just their brain capacity, it's much more.

You ever heard of the expression, "Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn"? Well that expression can apply to a woman's love, young guys that are attracted to older women like myself seem to have a sort of desire to find the perfect woman. We tend not to look at women our age because we've been introduced to this "hidden arena", where the exact women we're interested in engaging with are.

Mature women are smart women, they know their stuff and most of the time know how genuine your heart will be. It's not like that for us though, we need to understand them and the pursue is a pleasure and if you find "her" you'll know love like no other.

Younger girls lack much of this and those who don't are easily confused and are not trustworthy in the long run. That is why we are drawn to the cougars...

I think also that some of the allure is that older women package themselves differently- like women. Skirts and heels, makeup, carefully done hair and nails, the right scent. There's very good reason for this- it attracts men. Its has been working for us for some time now

hahahaha ... can't disagree with that

I very rarely wear makeup and do not have fake nails. I do wear skirts, dresses and heels though and quite well if I do say so myself.

Hot damn, we have more in common than I originally thought...

To be honest

I am currently envisaging a chap hanging out of a window on Fenchurch Street, his skirt flapping in the breeze, the high heels wavering as he is considering whether to jump or not.

I have to say Fenchurch Street just isn't that kind of place. No wonder he's considering it!

Cherry, that image is irresistible! Dear Al3x, please cooperate and let Cherry take a photo of this!

haha, I'll sell it to the highest bidder... I always knew those evenings watching Katie and Alex on ITV2 wouldn't go to waste.
