This question is meant for the ladies only. I am doing a survey for my documentary "Why Women Prefer Older Men."I will tell you ladies what I think:

For me, older men make me feel special. They have a lot of knowledge about a variety of situations. Their conversation is intelligent and worth my while. It just seems like they are on a whole different level than younger men. Older men teach you things that a younger man can’t. They make you think about things. They keep you going and excited. I like them to be at least 4 years older than me. However, that can be arranged because some men that are 1 or 2 years older are just as mature. It really depends on what that person has been through. Not to say that I would not date a younger man because it has happened plenty of times, my preference just lies with older.

Oh and just for you knowledge, I am 18.
Please answer my question and give your explanation.
Thank you : )

Older men without a doubt.

1. I think to be honest, they look a lot sexier than younger men. Not so child like.

2. Experience, In most cases, They've 'been there, done that' and learnt from it.

3. And they're so much more mature!

But to be honest, women mature much quicker than men, which is why it's the norm for a man to be older than the woman he's with. I'm 20 and I would have to think twice about dating any guy under 25, However I think the oldest guy I'd date would be 40. Depending on looks.

I prefer older men. They are a little bit more mature than the younger ones I know and know a little more about things. I have standards that men must meet before I will consider dating them, they must be either my age or no more than 10 year older for the most part. But, while I may prefer older men, younger men aren't that bad either, there is a certain younger man who knows how to have mind blowing sex and I am so madly in love with him, I guess that is why I went against my own standard and am actually dating him now and have been for 4 1/2 months. So, even though older men are the way I prefer to go, sometimes even a younger man is good too.

Proceed with CAUTION******
Some older men have one goal for 18 yr old girls.Needn't I to spell it out. Age preferences is not as important as heart preferences. I've seen some very mature young men, so dont write them ALL off your list. Do you prefer a man that lust over you or respect you as a person? Do you prefer a man that works a decent job for a living or one that gets his money thru illegal channels? Do you prefer a man that wants a woman with an intellegent mind or a man that treats a woman like a door mat? Do you prefer a man that looks good or a man that has a good heart? Seeking a mature man is alright as long as you are seeking him for the right reason. But some older men are just as immature as some younger men. So be careful that you don't get caught in a snare b/c older men knows how to use you w/o you knowing what is going on.

I think a Man who is younger than you by 3 years and not too old to be your Father is okay. Personally for me to be attracted to a much older guy he must not be flabby. With matters of the heart it is advisable to get someone you are attracted to. If you make a mistake and go for a Man for other reasons other than love, with time you will get problems in your relationship. When you are in love with a Man, even if he angers you after you both have been together for years, just looking at what attracted you to him is enough to make you overlook the misunderstandings-let's say he is handsome and you liked his smile, wide chest or his eyes, just looking at these things will keep you falling in love again and again. However if there was no love, any tiny argument would be a disaster, getting intimate with him can become a chore-all about him will simply turn you off. When things get really bad, other interested ideal Men around you, might lead you into an affair. Moreover you and a much older guy might have differing interests-you may be at an age where you love partying all nite, when he would rather stay home and fall asleep (+ snore) infront of the TV. A much older guy robs you of all your youthful years-one day you will always look back and regret the precious fun-filled time you lost.´

By the way 'older' does not mean 'mature', I have known young guys who act impressingly mature, and older men who do not want to grow up-infact look out for Men who lie about their ages. A guy who is let's say 45, may ask you to guess his age and if you say, for instance, 36 he will pretend you guessed right and will never correct you.
So follow your heart but not your mind.

Older men have a certain dignity. They say age comes with experience and in majority, that's true. (there are exceptions to every generality for the liberals) But really, an intelligent conversation is hard to have with someone who has just started college and is worrying about his first exam. If you're lookin for fun, a younger guy can really keep you on your toes, but if a girl is looking to settle down (which most of us have in the corner of our minds constantly) it's the older man that is the catch.

I am fifty. I grew up in a large household with all my siblings being older than me. I always seemed to be older than my age. I only feel comfortable with older men. I like it that they seem more settled, able to talk on a broad range of topics, have knowledge ofthe world, are appreciative of being with a younger woman. Know what they want career wise. Able to take charge as a man. And have that gorgeous trait..confidence.

I prefer guys that are not more than 5 years older than me. I would not mind a guy being a year younger but that is it. However, if there is a guy that is younger by more than a year I would date him as long as he is mature.

i look at younger men as unexperienced kids.
my man has to be at least a little older, but not more than 15 years older.
i have more respect if a man is older, has a good job, career, has his own place- makes me more sure he is able to take care of a woman.

I prefer slightly older men.
I'm not interested in younger men because I'm raising 2 kids already and I have no desire to raise a third.
