Older women- so what is the *real* appeal?

Jump to newest

Redhill

I went to a bar with a friend I met on Fab last Saturday night. We’ve known each other for over two years, have a great friendship as well as a great sexual connection. I am also 12 years older than him.

When we got to the (vanilla) bar, the bouncer first asked him how tall he was (he is *very* tall) and then he turned to me and asked me: “Is he your son?”

I should know better, I am at an age that I supposedly shouldn’t give a flying fudge about these things and move on. I laughed it off at the time and just said “yeah- he’s got great genes, hasn’t he?” but after a while it really hit me and completely knocked my confidence. We were there for a short time and he noticed my discomfort. I got the usual pay no notice, he’s an idiot, he wishes he could be with someone like you etc... and he said that he is with me because he really likes me and enjoys my company. The fact that I am older is purely coincidental. I -am- definitely older but not geriatric by any means! I am a runner, I go to the gym, my Garmin watch says I have the fitness level of a 28-year-old, so it must be true!

We hear all the typical “ah, older women know what they want...” reality is, many times I don’t know what flavour ice cream I want. or we hear “Older women are confident...” when we ask what is the appeal in older women.

So, I ask you, fellow fabbers- what do you like about older women? And dont give me that “you’re more confident or know what you want” spiel...

I like older women for many reasons, but overall for the confidence in what they want in life. Life experience; I feel they have alot to say which in turn elevates the attraction for me.

In terms of intimacy, I prefer an older women's touch. Always have. All of my past relationships have been with older women.

It bugs me that were in the days of trans, pan, bi, non binary LGBT openess , yet mature women with younger men is still looked on as somewhat of a 'oddity'

The kind of behaviour you’re experiencing is discrimination, but is very much (sadly) the socially acceptable sort.

It’s not that long since mixed race couples got singled out, and no doubt in some places still do, same with same sex couples, but society has evolved a great deal in terms of those types of relationships thankfully, but age gap relationships are still ridiculed and sometimes vilified and it has to stop.

I agree with this. It was said in a mocking way, so the maliciousness wasn’t that noticeable, but I was effectively made to feel that I was not supposed to be there or in the company I was with. I didn’t feel it at first, but as time went by I felt worse and more uncomfortable.

I had exactly the same experience.

Until recently I had a FWB who was over 60. You’d never know and by God was she amazing to be with, intellectually and in the sack.

Don’t care how old you are, if there’s a connection then what does it matter!

But that’s not really the case is it?

Since time began it’s been deemed perfectly acceptable for an older guy to have a younger partner - he’s admired by his peers and the assumption is that he must be successful.

The opposite applies when an older woman has a younger partner. She’s derided and referred to as a cougar - and both are generally ridiculed.

It’s high time attitudes changed - but like attitudes towards openly promiscuous women - I doubt they will any time soon.

Ah the bitchy reference to a woman's age in order to put her "in her place". Men and women do it. Personally I don't think it has anything to do with you and everything to do with the person making the comment. Some deep well of insecurity brings forth vitriol that escapes from their mouth. A cold caller made reference to my age once when I denied being in an accident that wasn't my fault" he told me I was so old I'd probably forgotten. I laughed out loud. Time to stop attempting to shame women for being alive past child bearing age

For me I don’t place so much value in someone’s age, I’m more interested in them as person. It matters not a jot if there’s an age difference as long as we can mentally and sexually stimulate each other. I do agree with Peachy, it’s high time general attitudes toward women changed for the better.

I love this thread, even if just for the fact that it made me think, as this is something I have never tried breaking down.

I've enjoyed company of women of different ages and there's something I feel with older women that is different, makes it more exciting, but cannot quite make out exactly what it is.

Something for me to think about, gracias OP

From my early teens, I fancied older women and because I always looked too young for my age (not a boast, it's a real problem), girls my age were not really interested and I didn't find much connection with younger girls. In recent times I have had some of my best encounters at clubs with retired women.

I enjoy the company of older women as they usually get my jokes and can often talk about a wider range of topics. I also find it easier to flirt with them, though this may just be me!

Everyone has their own thing - gay, straight, older, younger, blonde, brunette etc. - perhaps it's better not to worry and just take things as they are. After all, do you question why you like a younger man?

Ok so I’m a little bit of a baby fawn in terms of Fab forum posting (in that I’ve never posted in one before) but I couldn’t not...

What a person says is a reflection of who they are not who you are...I can’t stress that enough. This guy said what he said for entirely his own purposes - probably to feel superior in his case - who’s to say he didn’t find ways to tear others down that night (he could have made snide little comments to all sorts of people as they walked in: weight, age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation).

Even though it stings a bit, and even if us all telling you that you’re gorgeous (which you are) doesn’t help...try and remember that in his inward-looking, self-centred, myopic little mind he said what he said with the intention of offence. And that says all about him that we need to know. And nothing about you.

Absolutely this. You’re unlikely to meet a great intellect working the door in a nightclub.

As for why an older woman, sometimes they know they’re own mind better, although often they are just more aware of the conflicts. Sometimes they’re more confident, although society doesn’t make that easy.

Whatever the reason, you can’t help who you fancy. He fancies you

Society hasn't accepted the role reversal of an older women and younger guy. Personally I've always been attracted to younger men but its never gone further than the bedroom.

I couldn't face the nudges and whispered comment's if I were to start a relationship with a younger man. I'm a confident, independent women who doesn't usually give a f*ck what people think but this is the one area where it would bother me.

As its been said, we have all these various genders and sexuality's that no one bats an eye over but an older woman and younger man is still not acceptable.

You could reserve the question, women, young men, so what is the real appeal?

Maybe he was making small talk and you took it personally. The appeal of older women to me is it feels wrong like I am being corrupted.

Too many people pointing to society, while ignoring biology.

Small talk when you're entering a club is asking how you got there or if you'd travelled far not making personal remarks about height and relative age. Personal remarks are designed to be taken personally

Well as a guy who has been around the block a few times, before cyberspace courtship was invented, when hardware was something that you got at the iron mongers, and the only software around was located between old men's legs before viagara was invented, I think that I am well qualified to pass an honest and sincere opinion on this subject. My experiences include two marriages to women older than myself, not to mention the medium to long term relationships I've had with women older than myself, but it wasn't just the fantastic sex with an experienced woman that made things so special, it was their higher mental intellect that I was in tune with. When I dated girls of my own age I would be bored shitless by their conversation as I'd passed that level of hopes and aspirations for the future years previously. So if any of you young bulls are turned on and excited by the intelligence level of a more mature woman, I get where you are coming from because, I've been there seen, and got the tee shirt, and enjoyed every minute of those ladies company, in and out of the bedroom.

I get the same lines, and agree with the knowing what we want, because we do. But I wouldn't say I was more experienced because of the extra years!! Alot of years have been single or even celibate.

Looking at your pics you look stunning so not sure what the guy was getting at. Age is just a number. I tend to end up with “The Older Woman” and not 100% sure why but guessing better company and seem to have better or more grown up conversations. My last proper relationship, my ex is 12 years older than me and when i take the kids home after the weekend i still find her attractive but obviously gone our separate ways.

Thanks for your opinion. I wouldn’t want to be with anyone who thought they were being corrupted by me. I like people to make their own life decisions and take responsibility for them!

As for taking things personally, it is hard not to. Would he had said anything if it had been a 48 year old man and a 36 year old woman? and it had never happened before, so it really disconcerted me!

My friend does look younger than his 36 years (I have a thing for “babyface” men ) but still, I honestly don’t think we looked that oddly mismatched! It is 12 years, not 30! Hehe!

I’ve always gravitated to younger people. I had to leave uni due to money issues and came back as a mature student (at 23... “mature”, lol) so most of the people I met were younger.

My partner is 16 years older than me. There have been times where the odd look or comment has been made, which I can brush off, but takes a bit more for my other half to brush off.

The appeal that "older" women have in my eyes are that they are women. I don't exclusively go for women older than me, age rarely is a factor for me.

Speaking as someone who in their younger years enjoyed the company of older women; it was the sexual confidence the exude. Younger women have the confidence of youth but a woman who knows themselves, their desires and is comfortable in themselves is incredibly sexy

The *real* appeal must be as varied are there are people.

Two most common are that older women know what they want .... which we all know is not the case and 'she's older and will fall at my cock in desperation,' which we all know holds little truth for most older women.

Hang ups on age are a waste of time. If we lined up ten men and asked their ages my guess is we'd be way off the mark for some, generous to others and really upset some of them.

Is it not there though?

Had I been with a man who could effectivelybe my son in terms of age- as in if I’d been 17+ years older, then yes, I wouldn’t have considered it as a judgement... but it did seem like a snide comment to me.

Hey, I’m not British, I’m not white- I’ve had my fair share of discriminatory remarks in my 18 years here. I know how not to to react to provocation. But this really threw me. I didn’t react at the time, but also to my own detriment, I am an overthinker so tend to process things later on.

Still all views appreciated.

In my younger years I pretty much dated women a good bit older than myself. Not because I was specifically attracted to older women or its a fetish of mine, just how things ended up naturally. I'm a bit of a sapiophile. I tended to find older women who were the most engaging in good conversation and had the life experience and confidence to express themselves. As I head towards my 40s I'm still attracted to the same women (late 30s - 40s) as I was when I was 20 but also finding women much older also attractive too. I do love a great mind, a story to tell and that confidence that comes with age and knowing yourself.

Personally I absolutely love “older” ladies who are in good shape and have pride and confidence in their own beauty and sexuality.

I should add OP, that at 48 you may be older than your man friend, but I’d not consider you “old” by any means.

My absolute favourite type of lady is probably between 55 and 65. She may no longer still be a size 10. She may be closer to a size 14 or 16.

Her breasts may not be quite as pointy as once were. She may have a caesarean scar or a little more around the middle, but that is all offset and more if she is beautifully groomed, smells wonderful, is confident and sexually voracious.

I have a semi regular playmate who is 59. She has a bit more of a mum tum than a younger lady. She has a caesarean scar, but has huge sensuous breasts with gorgeous big nipples. An all over tan and she is never less than perfectly groomed.

She dresses classily with a suggestion of sex, and she is voracious and unapologetic in her love making. She loves semen and slow, deep, passionate anal sex, which is an even more exciting juxtaposition with her outward elegance and poise.

She’s never going to be a size 10 again and I think she’s great. Sex with her is far more exciting than with most ladies half her age or younger.

As ever, I conclude by inviting any interest from “older” ladies. I’d be thrilled to her from you.

You’re not remotely old, and nor do you look it.

You may be the age you are, but I think a lot of ladies suffer from what I call “the M&S effect” - that they may be 42, but hope to and can pass for closer to 30, whereas society deems them to be older than they actually are.

The difference between a lady’s age in her mind and how society sees them can be as much as 20 years, and that’s bullshit.

The beauty of a lady in her 40s-50s is that she’s smart enough to dress a little younger without looking like she’s trying too hard, and that is really sexy.

I don't want to pass as younger than I am. I want people, not just men, to see *me* rather than a perceived age. I'm probably 20 years older than some women on this thread who are feeling old it makes me feel a bit sad that they feel that way

I got the usual pay no notice, he’s an idiot, he wishes he could be with someone like you etc... and he said that he is with me because he really likes me and enjoys my company. The fact that I am older is purely coincidental. I -am- definitely older but not geriatric by any means! I am a runner, I go to the gym, my Garmin watch says I have the fitness level of a 28-year-old, so it must be true!

We hear all the typical “ah, older women know what they want...” reality is, many times I don’t know what flavour ice cream I want. or we hear “Older women are confident...” when we ask what is the appeal in older women.

So, I ask you, fellow fabbers- what do you like about older women? And dont give me that “you’re more confident or know what you want” spiel... "

Sorry, what was the question? Got engrossed in perving over your amazing pics & videos!

These are often questions about motive and intent.

Young guys seem to think the have more to offer than older guys, you see it all the time in forums and chat in their comments. Do women believe that also?

So the other side is what do women see in guys 10-20 years their junior. What is it that attracts them.

Withought going into subjective reasoning, if such comments make you uncomfortable then, think the question needs to be asked, why?

"I'd be interested to know the number of long term relationships between older women and younger men in comparison to the opposite.

My partner and I have been together 3 years, just got engaged. I'm 51 he's 26"

Congratulations to you both

"I went to a bar with a friend I met on Fab last Saturday night. We’ve known each other for over two years, have a great friendship as well as a great sexual connection. I am also 12 years older than him.

When we got to the (vanilla) bar, the bouncer first asked him how tall he was (he is *very* tall) and then he turned to me and asked me: “Is he your son?”

I should know better, I am at an age that I supposedly shouldn’t give a flying fudge about these things and move on. I laughed it off at the time and just said “yeah- he’s got great genes, hasn’t he?” but after a while it really hit me and completely knocked my confidence. We were there for a short time and he noticed my discomfort. I got the usual pay no notice, he’s an idiot, he wishes he could be with someone like you etc... and he said that he is with me because he really likes me and enjoys my company. The fact that I am older is purely coincidental. I -am- definitely older but not geriatric by any means!

OP, did you report the incident to the bar management? Doormen are often hired from an outside company, and any reputable bar manager/owner would be horrified to hear that their guests were being verbally assaulted (yes, however insidiously, that’s what it amounts to!) by any member of their staff, in-house or contract. Who knows how many other guests they’ve lost the custom of, just because of this ignorant, arrogant arsehole’s venom spoiling their visit?

You are beautiful; age is nothing but a concept created by man to mark the passing of time (also a manmade concept). Nothing can change that xxx

Physically I'm attracted to certain things, the (legal) age of the man is irrelevant. When it comes to acting on physical attraction I find I'm more compatible with men over 45 on a mental and emotional level.

I don't believe young men have more to offer than old men any more than the reverse is true

"My wife's 11 years older then me. I think she's always been more worried of me leaving for a younger ladie. Whitch I've always reassured her she has nothink to worry about. But didn't seem to make much difference to her. Age is a number if u ask me. Xx"

So I assume she doesn't knot you're on Fab then ?

Their bodies. Older women in my experience have curves in the right places and are confident with it, they know how to use their bodies properly, they already have what they want in life, are usual more honest and upfront.

Don’t get me wrong, an 18 year old size 10 blonde would be great but the drama and insecurities wouldn’t be worth it.

For me there's just a natural sexiness that comes with age, women are just more desirable than girls. The things most women hate about getting older... crows feet, greying hair...etc I find attractive features, and yes the experience and confidence does play a part in the attraction

It's maturity , intellectually really. Younger women tend to either be insecure, or think they're hot shit,and despite the sexually liberal I don't need no man facade they project at the back of it most really want to play the chase me game and are looking for a white dress and a big day out. So,too much drama for me

I've always enjoyed the company of older women and looking through the comments have to agree with a lot of them.

Maybe the bouncer was jealous that you were with a younger man and he wanted it to be him, I know if I saw your with a younger man I'd be jealous ?? x

Great responses, thank you to everyone who has replied!

Why do I “go” for younger men? It’s not just men, for some reason I get on better with people who are younger than me. My best female friend is 37. My cousin and I are like sisters and I used to hold her as a baby- she is 35. it has been a coincidence that the people I’ve met on Fab who I have built strong friendships with are in the mid-30s bracket, they are all very intelligent, educated, chivalrous and tall and very physically attractive to me, so age isn’t that much of a factor.

Perhaps look at it another way. He asked, he wasn’t sure. He didn’t call you Mum or him son

"Society hasn't accepted the role reversal of an older women and younger guy. Personally I've always been attracted to younger men but its never gone further than the bedroom.

I couldn't face the nudges and whispered comment's if I were to start a relationship with a younger man. I'm a confident, independent women who doesn't usually give a f*ck what people think but this is the one area where it would bother me.

As its been said, we have all these various genders and sexuality's that no one bats an eye over but an older woman and younger man is still not acceptable."

I am closest to this answer in my experience. I can accept why a younger man might be interested in me, and Im usually immune to public opinion of me, but I do have a self-consciousness to judgement in the this regard that I cant reconcile. Its unsettling

I've never been with a woman older than me so I can't speak from experience. At the same time I don't have even a passing interest in anyone below my current lower age filter of 40.

I've had comments aimed at me in the forums from much younger women which I don't respond to and messages from couples who got around my filters because the male half was 40+ but the female much much younger.

They seemed surprised that I wasn't interested.

I've been accused on other threads of not being truthful when I have said I've no interest in young women because men aren't supposed to have preferences. Those accusations were all from other men.

I've never been interested in a woman because of perceived experience linked to her age.

I'm much more interested in a woman who doesn't have an enormous amount of sexual experience because we would have more in common.

I've never understood how people can be offended at every throwaway comment made by complete strangers though.

I get age related comments aimed at me almost every week both on here and irl because I don't look my age or even close to it. I've been called a liar when I say I have a 30 year old daughter but I ignore people like that and pay no heed.

Gosh I don't know but I love older women maybe it's the look of a real lady rather than the a lot of younger girls with too much make up, pout lips etc etc
