Up My Own Arse Apparently

Or is it really just a number?

I wonder if this is more of an issue for women rather than men. The mammy in me will sometimes stop me from thinking those thoughts about someone who is young enough to be my son or daughter. Or is above 18 all well & good?

I've generally always gone for older though every guy in the last couple of years has been younger.

Older guys can be immature little pricks.

Younger guys can not be immature little pricks.

No when i am looking to meet my age range is a filter to stop guys of a certain type messaging that are normally 40+ not because i won't meet anyone older than 40.

Oldest guy i met was 82.

Stick with the range, 18-99 seems undiscerning, whilst anything younger than early 40s and I'd be a cradle snatcher *and they may be taking me to ICU or the morgue).

I suppose it's mostly about attraction and how you get on and I think my age range covers a broad spectrum of women and couples. I've chatted to women older than my upper age range but my lower age range will never go below 20 (I have been thinking of raising it recently) as the thought of having sex with someone still in their teens gives me the ick.

I have also chatted to and met women and couples where I'm not in their age range and the subject has never been brought up

Yes we always stick to our age range. In my opinion age isn't just a number and I wouldn't feel comfortable with a man more than around 15/16 years younger than me in a sexual context.

Socially however age is irrelevant. Interestingly to younger people the reverse often applies, the ones interested in us sexually wouldn't be seen dead with us socially

Age limits are more of a starting point, someone can be what I’m looking for looks-wise but older or younger so it’s better to be open minded. Very rarely do I flex, but the option is there.

My age filters are set up only for another useful filter purpose.

If there’s mutual attraction and connection, it’s the person who counts, no matter the age.

I draw the firm line at the lower age of 21 though.

It's all relative, they would have to be quite a mature one for me to dip below 25. At a certain point, you start to feel a little take advantagery.

To answer the OP I’m pretty open minded. But I would not meet anyone under the age of 21.

Age limits are tricky because usually older people don’t get me or my humour and they only like the serious ‘mature’ side to me. But of course not all older people. So I keep an open mind. If we can share a laugh and I’m attracted to them then I’m down for whatever. I’ma slut.

I think it tends to be more of an issue for women. But also consider the difference in perception when we think of older women and younger men relationships compared to the other way round. I’ve dated people much older than me, held hands in public and all that jazz and I don’t care. But some can’t stand the looks. And the judgement.

I think that’s the thing for me, you can strike a common ground or mutual interest with several people of differing ages but should it become a situation where sexual activity were to be involved I wouldn’t go any younger x

As with all these types of questions it’s attraction that is key for both of us.

Yes, 'mutton ' was mentioned. It was clear that these men found it disgusting. It was a few years ago, I don't know if things have changed. That and your experience are (admittedly very low down) on my list of reasons I won't meet much younger men for sex. They might be ok with it but lots of other people won't.

I mostly conform to my age bracket as this is where I feel the most 'comfortable', and yet I don't really know what 'comfortable' really means. Most of my meets have been on the back of women messaging me and therefore age didn't really figure.

My recent meet was 24 years younger than me. It took me a month prior to meeting to get my head around that and seek the counsel of one or two forumite friends.

Plus especially the younger guys who are new here can’t seem to take rejection without hurling insults…seems as though one of their mates has found the site, passed it around their group and said they’d get sex instantly. I just need more maturity than that

My age limit is set by the day I was born. Sadly it isn't a concept anyone is willing to see beyond, possibly due to the sag of aged wood soaked in vintage spirit. The decades of experience count for nothing when it comes to expiry dates, and it would seem my best before has passed on through while the use by has passed away. Now my age limit is no longer a preference so much as a limitation. If only the new generation had been taught to give it a sniff first, then decide if it is safe to consume.

We have our preference, but wouldn’t rule anything out in a moment of time with the right people.

Granted we all have kinks and turn ons and some find having sex with someone younger than themselves a turn on, and equally someone younger may find it a turn on to have sex with someone older. As consenting adults, that’s a personal choice.

However for us connection is key, as people have stated above, rather than age.

As the op targets the question more leaning with the younger generation, we’ll share our thoughts in that direction:

Whilst we would typically align with a similar age to ourselves, we have met with quite a lot of younger people, who we have connected with.

Their approach to the swinging lifestyle, the way they carry and present themselves, has been aligned to what we look for.

We do find some of the younger swingers have a different mentality to people of their age that hit the high street on a weekend. They want the fun of a night out but not with the potential agro they may face from d*unken people. For that as a possible reason, we’ve enjoyed the dynamic they bring to swinging.

As such, we’ve made some really good much younger friends in the lifestyle.

They are generally guidelines. If we're attracted to someone, with similar morals and desires as us, then the age isn't as important. We're open to older or younger than our limits within reason. We wouldn't go as far as teens anymore, but that's just us getting older. When we started on here in our 20s life was a little bit different.

On Fab, I try to stick to it but I have gone out of the range for couples. Single guys not so much.

In clubs, I don't do that because it would alienate people in person. If I get chatting with a younger or older man and I take a shine to them, then it's not a barrier.

As a woman, I know men my age and older want to go for women in their 20s and 30s. Doesn't bother me but it is entertaining when they steal their Netflix. At my age, I don't have the energy to be petty. Lol!

"I watched a much older woman flirt with a younger man once in a social group. The way the men of all ages in the group spoke about the woman afterwards made me never want to risk doing that, ever.

Making her sound like a desperate old daddy I imagine?

I witnessed something similar on recent night out. Lady in her late 50s who was clearly on a mission to get a man that night. The looks and sniggering the moment turned her back was difficult to watch.

Yes, 'mutton ' was mentioned. It was clear that these men found it disgusting. It was a few years ago, I don't know if things have changed. That and your experience are (admittedly very low down) on my list of reasons I won't meet much younger men for sex. They might be ok with it but lots of other people won't. "

Where I come from nothing more tasty than a bit of curried mutton roti.

Carribean fusion with the Indian subcontinent.

I also look younger/( and sound verbally younger?) than my age so that's something I have to navigate.
