The only time I struggled with getting women was between 13-16 years old, so I have no idea what you're talking about, except that I became more attractive with age. There are more men in their 50s who became more attractive to women after what you call 'their prime'.
But you are thirty and unable to step out of your own myopic perspective to see that the world is a bit bigger than your sandbox.
Bro you say women aren’t attracted more to guys in their 30s shows me you are just talking out your ass. Also saying you only struggled at 13-16 tells me you’re talking out your ass or dealing with low quality women. Nobody dealing with top tier women is gonna be fully ready at 24. You’re gonna make mistakes, slip up, break frame etc etc all things which are natural with younger age. A hot woman who is 24 will have had experience with older guys as a fact and as a 24 year old male it’s very hard to compete with that.
ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL, if a guy is Just as good looking at 24 and 34, he will get more girls at 34 than 24, by a considerable amount.
For a 23 year old girl looking for a hookup, a guy in his 30s is a safer bet - more experienced, has a better apartment, less likely to get attached/do something stupid etc
For a 23 year old girl looking for a serious relationship, a guy in his 30s is also a safer bet - more likely to also be ready to settle down, more money, more job security, more wisdom/relationship experience/leadership skills - have you seen most 24 year guys???
30s are win-win for men whether looking for casual sex or relationship.
40s are generally a more quiet period but age isn’tsole reason - it’s also due to changing motivation, less motivation to go out, party, date new people, low sex drive etc. However it can still be better than 20s if you really still care about dating new girls at that age. I’ve seen guys in early 40s that date bombshell 20s.
There is a huge various in men which is a reflection of many years of bad habits vs good habits. A metropolitan type guy in his 40s who is fit, runs daily, looks good, extroverted and charismatic, lives in an apartment in Manhattan is going to have a 10000000x different reality than an out of shape, divorced truck driver in tenesse who is 40 and introverted.
Now let’s say the first guy works in fashion or is a part time club DJ, or photographer…and had tons of sexual experiences in his 30s that made him confident…do you not think he’s gonna slay more 20 year olds than his 25 year old self
