most people irl will date women in their own age range

Fair point. I just feel like some guys don't see value in older women unless they're trying to look younger for that target audience. You see it being pandered to in games with women who are north of 40 but who look 18, and you see this sort of attitude in countries like Japan where women older than 25 are referred to as "Christmas cakes" because no-one wants them by the 26th. But people would stick to around their age range I guess, plenty of folks are single in their 30's.

Women peak way early. There are barely any women outside supermodels and actresses in the real world that are still primetime babes after 25.

I can see where you're coming from, but I don't entirely agree. At this point, model-level attractiveness is all the same to me - you show me a stunner, and I'll forget her in five minutes. There are so many of the same sort of conventionally attractive people everywhere that it's hard for me to find anything to be attracted to. No hate if someone looks like a model, it is an attractive look, but with the way that models are crammed down our throats in advertising and on TV I just don't really care. I'm also never going to be in their league, so what's the point?

I think women come into their own somewhere between 22 and their thirties. Not much to base this on, I just feel like that's a good period of time for someone's looks to really settle in and become familiar and nice, and the life experiences throughout one's twenties would make for a more interesting and entertaining 30 year old.

I don't care about "primetime babes". Continue to fawn over models if that's your thing, but I find more to be attracted to with a woman who's had some time to live her life and shape her personality based on that, rather than someone who's fresh out of university and is just getting started in the world. That's just me though.

you're in that age group arent you?

I'm 23, so yes.

You're coming off as a pseudo intellect with hardly any life experience

Guilty as charged, not gonna lie - I'm just coming at this from my own personal angle on the matter

and you're probably inebriated.

Incorrect, but I am planning to have a few later on.

Plenty of girls in their 30's are dating, you'll know once you're like north of 25.

Fair enough. I value input from people who know what's actually going on like this, so thank you for responding to my topic.
