There is a big difference between sex and a relationship.

If I werent married I'd absolutely screw a woman half my age, but dating one... I see complications.

But that's... not the issue here? Men are much more attractive when they are 20 compared to 40 as well.

That doesn't make me creep around university trying to get into their pants. It also doesn't inspire me to write sexist stuff online, etc.

Im saying that its biologically healthy to look at a young attractive person (of your preferred gender) and go "Yep, I would really like to do things with that person" It is however societaly problematic to be a perv in trying to make it happen and does raise some awkward questions about what a guy is really looking for if he wants to be with someone half his age.

As for the sexist stuff online. You ever seen some womens wishlists on dating sites? Now I aint saying shes a gold digger... but you know the rest of it.

There's a lot of women after young studs. A lot don't see issues with that. Young people are generally seen as hotter.
