Although I lack field experience, I have read a lot, and I know that is common for any woman to feel attraction to older men, sometimes much older, and is common for older men to feel attraction for younger woman, frequently much younger.

Check demographic statistics of any country, and you will find that any country has older males marring, on average, younger woman.

Social pressure to make a woman date a similar aged male, is purely religion based, which on some societies becomes custom,and extends itself out of religion, and even into law. But neither custom, religion, or law can change basic human instincts.

Very interesting topic. I am 27 and have always found older women very attractive, both in terms of looks and confidence/maturity. I've noticed older women are more accepting of my....quriks. Nothing real bad. Also, they are more set in their ways which I like. And confidence is a huge boost to!

I'm not attracted to older men. I wish I were because most men who hit on me are older.

guess being a young woman who doesn't care much for make-up and a fancy hairstyle is more attractive for an older man. Maybe it's because the older men get, the more they realise natural beauty is better.


They like you because you are a young woman who show interests in them. Makeup or not.
If you are their age they probably wouldn't be so interested.

Personally, I've always preferred older men. I don't thonk its an aspie think. I think though, that's its an aspie thing to be more free spirited and live life not based on following steriotypes. This would increase likelyhood of an aspie being in an age-difference relationship.

I find I get attention from older men, and always have, but I've never found any of them remotely attractive.

Well, other than a few years ago, I am not really all that sure if I do like older men. I mean, at that time, I was only 15 and I guess you could say I did date a 16 year old guy, though it was never announced to my parents. But I'll tell you one thing: I am NEVER dating those who are younger than me, especially from the last one I dated. 😡 Anyway, I have made the decision to date someone who is 25 (mostly for the fact that those who are 7 years older than me were born in the year of the dragon and I am crazy about dragons 😅)
Anyway, I personally want to date men who are at least 25 because they most likely have matured at that age (which they should naturally) and I am strangely more mature than the average 18 year old female, I guess one could say. And you know, I am actually quite curious to know what it would be like to date a man who is at least 25 AND has autism. They do say that two people with autism make a better couple than one having autism while the other doesn't. And as for who "they" would be, I have no idea. That is just what I've heard from my mom and therapist and such. So, to answer your question, I will have to say that I just might like older men as long as they are at least 25 and they treat me right. Part of it should be yes for me because I have a half brother who is 28 and he is mature (sorry though, he is already taken...married in fact).
