Attractive or actually want to date? I’m guessing porn stars are all around that age, but I have trouble believing the average 40 year old guy wants to date a 20 year old. Or maybe they only quizzed the older guys who like to hang out in bars?
I’m over 40 and imagine even 10 years younger would be hard to deal with.
I'm 48 and my wife is 10 years younger. We have been together for 10 years. We are happy together and have enough in common to really enjoy each other's company. We also have enough not in common to be able to give each other space. Milage varies for everyone, for sure, but at least in our case the age difference has meant nothing.
Wait, you would not date me? Really? What do they got, that I don't?!?
(I don't actually want to date a guy, just jealous)
This is ageism. As an also over 40 if you're not making friends and considering romantic partners outside of Gen X you are denying the world and steadily losing touch with society. Enjoy senility if you keep on this bigoted path!
