Why Are Young Women Dating Older Men?
When a movie star like Michael Douglas married a beautiful young star like Catherine Zeeta Jones, we can understand the mutual attraction, in spite of the age difference. But when our next door neighbor starts going out with a young woman, we suddenly look at them in a different light. The whispers and gossip begin.
We humans think in stereotypes. Unfortunately, our stereotypes are reinforced by the media and the media rarely informs or enlightens us, but generally just tells us what we want to hear. So many women these days are choosing older men as dates, the old “gold digger and dirty old man” stereotypes just don’t hold water anymore.
It’s strange, isn’t it, that no one just asks the woman why she has chosen to date an older man. It could be an enlightening exercise. You might learn that they are attracted to his stable center, that quiet maturity that can only come after having seen a lot of life. Young women sometimes tire of dating hypersexual young men and enjoy dating someone they can talk to.
In spite of the well-entrenched myth that youth is sexier than age, many women find a man’s signs of aging to be intriguing and to have a certain sex appeal. It’s easier for us to accept this in the case of starlets dating superstars like Mel Gibson or George Clooney, but it’s not uncommon amongst “normal” men and women, either.
Surprisingly enough, a man’s wealth is rarely the reason younger women are attracted to them. While success is often a sign of a man’s inner resources, often a common passion for a shared interest is the springboard for a relationship. It’s the wealth of experience and passion for life that makes an older man attractive, rather than his bank balance.
These are just a few of the reasons for young women dating older men. There are probably as many reasons as there are men and women. One thing is clear – it’s happening a lot more often these days. It may be time for young men to worry.
