Regardless of whether someone is a man or woman, younger people generally look more attractive. Older people tend to look less healthy due to normal aging, mostly due to wrinkles, including things like crow's feet. If, aside from fetishes, most men consider women in their 20s to be the most attractive, wouldn't most women consider men in their 20s to be the most attractive? Women obviously care a bit more about things like maturity, but how much more mature is a 35-year-old man going to be compared to a 25-year-old man? I did have a woman who was likely in her mid to late 40s who was obese (a 2/10 in my opinion) really want to go out with me when I was 22. She wanted me to move into her house.

If we ignore money, since older men typically have more money, are older women more attracted to younger men in their 20s and early 30s? If an older woman no longer worries about money due to inheritance or divorce from a wealthy man, is she going to prefer a younger man?

Will older women in their late 30s and early 40s go crazy over a young man if he essentially promises them a baby, assuming she hasn't reproduced yet? I would feel pretty cozy living in a nice house with an older woman who has much more money than me and having a little kid on the size.
