Context, I'm 30 now and i will find women my age and up attractive, but 15 years ago a 35 year old women would never have been attractive to me.

As I've aged younger women are less and less attractive (thankfully)

But when I'm 60 will 60 year old women be attractive to me?

I feel like there is a window that moves with you as you age. At 47 I find women attractive up to their early 50s, and down into their 30s.

I mean dating attractive here. I'm not going to try and claim that a hot twenty something on the telly does nothing for me

I'm 55 I find young women very attractive but I wouldn't have sex with them. Sex changes as you get older. It slows down and it's more psychological than physical.

Then again, I would not kick out 20 something yo out of my bed if she was already there...

Good thing that won’t be an issue.

Do you know what jokes and twenty year old pussy has in common?

You'll never get them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

My wife is in her 20s. Should be enough of a setup for a real boomer ass joke there.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It seems to me you're just confirming you're not getting 20 year old pussy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah that was the joke I was setting up

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What?

That your wife isn't twenty?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

No the "haha married people don't have sex" thing. It's a boomer classic.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

So you're a boomer who's married to a woman in her twenties?

Congratulations?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

I absolutely would, or my wife would be very annoyed with me.

Also I'd have a stern talk with said 20- something as (s)he'd have no business in my bed in the first place.

I was starting to question myself here lol everyone acting like a hot 20 year old is no longer hot when you're older meanwhile I see someone I consider attractive they're always attractive, I just won't approach them if they're young.

The only way this doesn't work is "upward" for me. 40s weren't attractive when I was younger but they are now, but a hot 20 year old will always be hot to me (I think).

@TIN this is what I think happens too.
