What % of men out there prefer a significant age gap in dating/relationships?

How about the right mental age for each other?

I prefer younger men, up to 12 years younger.

95%

Women want men with property and money, so they prefer older men. Older guys just take advantage of this fact and go after women still young enough to have kids. If women of that age group weren't willing and available to such men, older men would stick with older women. It's not men being vile men, but rather vile women choosing older men out of greed. Most western societies are not in the stone age or early agricuktural era anymore, women can have a successful family life at any level of the economy, poor or rich. They just choose this path without thinking about the societal consequences of all the guys of every age group after women of only one, and these women's families help them make this choice as well.

Men wanting younger girls

I have been in relationships with large age gaps (17 years) and ones with basically none. They both had their ups and downs, both were very different, but I think going forward in my life, I will be looking for relationships with no real age gap.

When I was mid-20's and looking for a 40's lady, age didn't matter, but there is a practical matter of aging 20 years and being 40 and together with a 60 year old lady. Many normal things, hiking, camping, travel, etc can be more difficult.

As long as its legal its what ever works for them.
I don't see a big deal

I don’t think it’s a preference as much as what just happens organically. It takes men about 10 years longer than women to establish themselves enough to keep a wife.

Im looking for a lady over 70 im 54

I once had a girlfriend who was 11 years older than me. I had other girlfriends about my age. And I married someone who is 7 years younger than me.

I was always open to the possibility of a relationship regardless of age. But I never had a preference for or against age differences.

I’m not sure on a percentage, but I wouldn’t mind either way per say. I would prefer an older woman compared to me (I’m on the younger side) just because they are experienced all around and are nicer and not as sassy lol. What do you think the % is and why?

I suspect a lower percentage *prefer* than accept it. I’m not looking to date a young girl but if the opportunity offered itself and it was a match, I wouldn’t turn it down. Or an older woman but at my age a significant age gap seems unlikely.

I’ve always been attracted to ladies from 2 to 10 years older than me. However, the best sex ever was with a 72 year old woman when I was 56. To be fair she looked to be about 48 years old.

My wife is 11 years younger. I love that age gap, though I’d never ever thought of it when I was 30.

I think your age determines the acceptable gap.

only older women ever showed interest in me...nothing ever happened sadly

for me age does not matter as long as legal ,, it is the feeling you have for the person

I would say most. Most men prefer younger women. Im not saying all men but most men do and i believe that is due to lower body count and higher chance of procreating.

I personally prefer women in my age range because i have more in common with them and i also have no desire to have any more children.
But making generalizations its safe to say men will for the most part always want younger women

I like couples of age gap relationship

I like someone around my age

I prefer older.

Why are you a cougar? Why do you think that is good? Large age gaps usually mean one is taking advantage of the other. Power. Why don't you find someone closer to your age? Do you support incest? Geez.

I don't prefer an age gap more than 5 years. Because relationship is not only about mental aspects, most relationships has physical attributes attaches to them. That may come to surface at any later time.

I don't prefer an age Gap I actually date based on maturity heart character spontaneity sense of humor kindness trustworthiness and sensuality imagine that

I prefer a woman close to my own age. We have to be able to share common culture.

I once saw a formula proclaiming that a man’s ideal dating partner is half his age plus 7.

Age only comes into play if not old enough
Otherwise its just a number

You don't have to be "elderly" to have an age gap relationship.

i like peopel who can felate well

It was fun

I do, both ways

I don't mind. I think anything more than 10 years older seems fetishistic. What age gap do you require or prefer?

My wife is six years older than me.
