We hear a lot about men who generally prefer to date younger women, but not as much about men who would rather date older women.
A recent Reddit thread shed some light on the advantages the latter men enjoy, and a lot of the replies were intriguing.
For instance, u/Cross-Country said, "She's a fully realized human being with her own established life, regardless of your presence in it. A lot of younger people place their sense of self-worth in how they're seen and thought of by others, and many women I've known, over a certain age, grow out of it, perfectly content to be who they are. They build their life how they want it, not how others think it should be. You aren't there to fill a hole in her life, her life is awesome. That is so unbelievably attractive."
And according to u/shermnasty: "Late 30s/early 40s got that spiked libido, which is fucking awesome."
As Reddit user u/BigDaddy_5783 said, "They USUALLY got their shit together and know what they want."
