Yup! I remember Justin Bieber when he first started singing. At that time, he looked extremely androgynous.

I find aspie cis men don't age massively either. This offends most of them because they long to be more masculine and mature looking. For me, I think they look 18-23 not 'about 12' which is just a ridiculous insult thrown out at anyone who looks young. As long as the aspie man remembers to shave, I find them attractive & they're more likely to be my maturity/experience level than a neurotypical guy their own age.
This is 50/50 for me. When I was young, I looked like a hideous monster. I knew it because no girls wanted to be with me. I used to compare my face to a rhinoceros's butt, and always cursed myself out when walking passed mirror. (Out loud if alone, and silently if near other people.) After age 25, women started to show interest in me, so I must have started to look better. Probably because I lost my baby-face features, and took on a more aged, weathered look. So I totally loved looking older. One couple in their 60's I talked to on a cruise I took at age 29, said I looked 35.

Today, I'm starting to see the opposite happen. People, both men and women, now say I look younger than my real age, even though I have visible gray hair, lost 20% of my hair to begin with, and have a few wrinkles if you look closely. I'm 37 going on 38, but now, many people I say I look between 30 and 35. Colleagues even said that. I take it as a compliment every time, considering how "30 to 35" is seen as a "mature" age. Plus, I like women in their 20's, so looking closer to their age is a nice bonus. A 28-year-old women will be more willing to date me if I look 34, even if she knows my real age.


Sometimes we look really young as aspies though.

And straight women typically don't want someone who 'looks about 12' any more than a guy wants a woman who's 'getting on a bit'.

It's a sex neutral thing. I went through an awful phase where everyone who hit on me was either underage or gave off creepy vibes. I even had some creepy stranger ask my age when I was 21 and say 'you look younger, that's hot' when he himself looked middle aged... Like um how young do you want a 21 yo to look? :? Maybe he meant 18-20 but...

At the risk of stereotyping gay men (this is a stereotype for all sexualities of men so it's not homophobic), guys tend to like younger guys more than women like younger men. Idk how this holds out for lesbians - whether women long for mummy figures & female silver foxes or not. It fits in with guys who want young 20 something yo girlfriends though.

This is a 12 year gap. I feel like I'm viewed as the attractive older woman. Which is nice, but I don't think either of us see this as a realistic long term option.


Do you feel this way only because you're the older person?

If the man were 12 years older, would you feel more comfortable?

My last boyfriend was 14 years older than me, and to be honest it never even occurred to me that we had an age difference. My current beau is 7 years older and even that feels negligible.

I'm just curious if gender plays a role here. It actually makes sense in my opinion for women to be older than their husbands since men seem to have shorter life expectancy. I've never dated a younger man, but my grandmother was older than my grandfather and they had a beautiful marriage of over 50 years.


Yes it wouldn't feel so weird if I was 12 years younger.

I'm not this old yet, but does a 35 year old man want a partner who is going through menopause?

Maybe single dads or those who don't want kids perhaps.

Well, yes you've got a point there, but I was thinking more about having to share a bed with a super sweaty woman having night time flushes.

I'm dealing with that now and I'm no where near perimenopausal.

I'm a 60-year-old man. I certainly don't consider a late 30's woman "old."

My girlfriend has that problem sometimes but we don't think it has anything to do with menopause for her. She's 38 & has had that issue for a long time now. It might of gotten worse over the last few years but her physical & mental health in general has gotten worse. Her doc 1ce mentioned during a physical that she might have a hormone imbalance but that's never been looked into or investigated. Me & Cass both think that she either has a higher amount of testosterone or a lower amount of estrogen which would increase the ratio of testosterone to estrogen. She's never really mentioned hot flashes to her doc, to many other issues to worry about. I have hot flashes as well sometimes but I am on some meds that can affect my hormones so that might be a factor. I've done some research on hormones before getting on those meds & I'm on those meds because they affect my hormones.

Yes, but a 27 year old would. Which is my point. This is why it would be less uncomfortable for me to date older.

http://www.hormonesbalance.com is a useful resource. I've cut out nightshade plants, coffee and refined sugar which may be helping. I've been making chicken bone stock/broth in my slow cooker and adding that to meals as well.

I'm better than I was, but not quite back to normal.

Young crossdressers & ugly old men, they're beautiful. :heart:

It's hard to find ugly old men, though. They're way too handsome.

If you like a young man, and a young man likes you, my not go for it?

I identify with this-----because I was one of those "young men" who had unrequited crushes on late-30's women on a regular basis.

From webmd:

“ British researchers who tracked the sex lives and menopausal status of nearly 3,000 American women for a decade found that those who had less sex were more likely to begin menopause at an earlier age. Women's bodies may react to a lessening of sexual activity on a "use it or lose it" basis, the research team theorized.”

Nature is so punishing.

Oh, I won't say no, but I'm not going to persue him. That just looks sad.

I've been keeping in touch as a friend. He'll have to make a move if he really wants more.

Last time I had a date with a younger man he treated me like a slug he'd found on the carpet. Puts me off.

Nope...you don't want to be treated like a slug in a carpet---certainly can't blame you for that! :)

What age range you find most attractive is going to dependent upon your own age.

When I was a teenager, I liked teenage girls. Now I'm 26 and anybody younger than 20 is too young for me. I'm also at the age where I'm starting to find women in their thirties attractive.
