Maybe its more creepy for the Younger Women who prefer older Men?
If you saw a Young Woman offered a bowl of delicious fresh apples, and she routed around and found an old dried wrinkled apple at the bottom with maggots and she chose that, and then started eating it, well thats creepy.
As for the Old man offered the same bowl, do you think he should go for the wrinkly apple just because he is wrinkly himself?, no, hes going to go for the fresh ones.
Old is ugly, even dogs look better when they are young, sure you might love your old dog because you have been together a life time, but if you went to the pound to chose a new dog, you will go for a young attractive dog, not some fat wrinkled thing whose breath smelt like it had been eating poo.
Iam old and I prefer myself young, let alone a Woman who is going to want me to tell her how beautiful I think she is every 5 minutes.
This isnt to say there are not attractive older Women, there are, and they are rare, too rare for the poor.
