"We do find a lot of people lie about their age though...especially at the higher end of our preference, you can usually add 10 years..." I met someone who flat out told me that he was a decade older than he claimed to be... I'd kind of guessed tbh. | |||

Good question, I cant say its age for defenite, but basing it on feedback and also reading peoples profiles. Could also be I am a minger, or because I am looking predominantly Bi, my feeling is age tho | |||

"Now I am 'old', compared with the bulk if not all punters responding to this thread. I didn't join Fab until after the big 70 and despite the age preference frequently showing an open minded "18 - 99"; I have struggled to get responses! I am open/honest about my age and marital status and am realistic in the sense that I approach 'older' couples and 'older' single women. I am not over weight and am fitter than many guys on here (if their profile is anything to go by) 10 or even 20 years my junior! BUT I have made a few friends with whom I enjoy mutually enjoyable sexual encounters...! Please don't write us older men or women off - we are entitled to a sex life as much as anyone else... and our experience has often taught us stuff you might just enjoy. " I am afraid that the harsh truth is that most people consider older bodies to be less sexually attractive than younger bodies. Woman over Fifty will get plenty of offers because of the massive sex imbalance on here. Males over fifty will always struggle. | |||

"How do you know it’s your age?" I had no issues aged 55. At 56 it became more difficult. At 57 even more so. The 55 years upper age filter is the killer; I have to wait to be approached since I can’t message anyone now. | |||

You're from a different generation to me. From reading your profile, we have nothing in common. Is it your age? Quite probably. I'm not writing you off. I just wouldn't want to fuck you. There's a difference. | |||

There's a difference." Fair enough, this 'lifestyle' is all about sharing an openness towards sexual preferences and 'mores', consent and pleasure. Of course age (an age preference) is an obvious one, and I am certainly not suggesting it isn't, I am definitely not on here in pursuit of young, inter-generational encounters, in the end there has to 'attraction'...! I was introduced to swinging by a couple some 10/15 years younger than me when I went to Switzerland on a skiing holiday. They were very warm and friendly and invited me to eat with them as I was on my own in the same hotel and this 'evolved' into sharing a bed (more accurately the wife) ultimately because there was a mutual attraction. Isn't that the key word, 'attraction'... I am not going to spend time with and certainly not seek intimacy with people where there is no 'attraction', that would be perverse! I do however want 'younger' folk to simply recognise/acknowledge that for some (many) of us old'uns sexual interest and desires do not do evaporate with age! | |||

"Lots of things on Fab make people ineligable to others... their: size, colour, height, physical build, interests, gender.... age is just another thing on this long list." Perfect. No one should ever feel inadequate because they don’t fit into someone else’s desires. Just be open to rejection when you ask for a meet, it’ll happen time and time again, just move on. | |||

"We do find a lot of people lie about their age though...especially at the higher end of our preference, you can usually add 10 years..." This is why my age range is very limited on here. I've done socials with guys who state their age is younger than they are, I never met them again. | |||

I agree that some people lie about their age, we met a guy who claimed to be 30. He wasn't a day over 23 | |||

"It's bleeding obvious that men over fifty are less attractive to women on here. A quick survey of the first thirty women near me looking for men shows the the percentage of women willing to meet men in the following age brackets 18-20 33% 21-30 77% 31-40.90% 41-50 87% 51-60 37% 61-70 23% 71+. 17% Note the big drop when men hit their fifties. I'm 52." That is a drop and one that doesn't surprise me, but that still leaves more than 10 who would potentially meet men in their 50s (given the usual caveats around connection and attraction etc) - which when you extrapolate that out over a wider area/sample becomes a bigger number still and surely a big enough number for any decent person to find someone that interests them, and they interest in return. As I said further up, I prefer to focus on those that will potentially meet me rather than worry about those that won't for whatever reason (age, sexuality, beard etc) they do so | |||

"This is an age old trope isnt it. Society tells us to desire the young and beautiful but we have little in common with them so if we have any sense we stick with people around our age but unfortunately as we get older we have to compete more to maintain ourselves physically when compared to the body conscious youths of today which is mentally and physically knackering.

Personally I have been lucky enough to meet a few women who have left dead relationships and were looking for adventures and its been a lot of fun for them and me!"
