Younger man/ older woman reality show….WTF???

[STR8UP]

I spotted the trend a little while back when I noticed so many posts about younger guys hooking up with older women, but I wouldn’t have guessed it would come to this.

There is actually a new “reality” show that puts a bunch of older women (all 40+ it seems) in competition for the affection of a 30 year old guy. Then later in the show it looks like they bring out the “temptation”…. a bunch of women in their 20’s.

It’s called “age of love“, and the promo says something like “It’s no secret. More and more younger men are dating older women.”

Now I’m all about personal choice and whatnot, but I never thought I would see the day where this kind of thing hits prime time.

So what’s with the trend?

When I was 20-21 yrs old waiting tables I had a few cougars trying to get up on me, one was my manager. It was flattering, but when I would look around at the sea of 18-21 year old women and I couldn’t imagine taking time out of my day to pursue a 40 year old woman as opposed to a 20 year old. They basically did nothing for me.

Now I realize that the guy on this show is 30 and that makes it a little different, but me personally, I will STILL take the 20 yr old over the 40 yr old.

Haha…they just showed another promo for the show and called the younger women “kittens” and the older ones “cougars” LOL!!!

Anyway, has the new generation of men been brainwashed into thinking that older women are desirable, or are they truly attracted to these women? I am truly dumbfounded….

I personally find older women in their 40's a lot more appealing, both physically, they way they act, and also the fact that they have more experience sexually which is a big turn-on for me. Older women(40's) are very feminine in the way they look and act. Give me a hot MILFY 45 year old chick over a hot 25 year old chick to f*ck any day.

when i was 25 i liked women who were 35.

now that im 32 i like women who are about 25.

go figure.

very rarely do i like a woman under 25, they are about as enjoyable to converse with as a retarded monkey.

40+ has never really done it for me. a woman's *ss goes to hell after 40. they start getting a gut. they start getting wiskers. etc.

when i was 25 i liked women who were 35.

now that im 32 i like women who are about 25.

When I was younger, I didn't mind a woman who was year or 2 older. Of course, when I was 14, I really liked 17 year olds (but had absolutely no chance with them, so I stayed with the 12 year olds.) When I was 27 or so, I seemed to have gotten into a pattern where I was meeting a lot of divorced 33 year olds (with kids or not, although I really didn't date the mothers), who still had a nice figure.)

But then I started to not think so much about pure sexual gratification, and more about the totality of relationship with women, so I backed away to more age appropriate women. And then when I hit my early 30's and started to realize that women my own age had reduced fertility, etc., I began to become very interested in really young women (like 19.) In my late 30's, I had soem relationships with women almost half my age.

very rarely do i like a woman under 25, they are about as enjoyable to converse with as a retarded monkey.

I agree, a lot of women under 22 are lame and flakey, but I think that amongst the university educated crowd, there definitely are some women with the right attitude - it's just that the ones we tend to see out in the social world are the unstable ones.

40+ has never really done it for me. a woman's *ss goes to hell after 40. they start getting a gut. they start getting wiskers. etc.

Yes, once a woman loses her figure, I just have no interest initiating a relationship. But I see a lot of those 25 year olds these days with the gut.

I remember being 30 and thinking that a 38 year old woman was simply too old.

The situation is simple: the media and society must create a balance so the single old women can also get a man.

Single men in their success years (mid 30s-40s) will NOT go for women in their 40s. So...that leave younger men that due to todays younger generation of television, computers, and techno are already brainwashed and soft and they cannot compete with todays mature men (due to new diets and fitness techniques the generation gap in heath/fitness has shrinked) that are healthy/career oriented/and more stable. No competition.

Any man with a 2 in front of his age dating women 5+ years older than them and OVER 30 (29 with a 32 is okay) is not a DJ and have some serious issues. I don't care the justifications and excuses. That's the way it is. And if he has the 2 and dates 40+ then he is desperate as he lacks the skills to get prime meat.


There is no doubt in my mind that the 30 man will get the woman in her 40s. Women in that age group buy more and the sponsors of the show wants that money. But younger generation of men will fall for it. I bet you they will portrait the younger ones as party animals and the older ones as more mature. LOL

I just caught the teaser for this piece of sh!t "social experiment" of Cougars vs Kittens. Gee,let me guess what the dudes going to do . . .

It's already set to record all episodes on my dvr. :rock:

 

[squirrels]

The same reason so many guys on here chase Asian and Indian women.

More younger ones for us, dude.

Re:

As you well know STR8UP, TV and media are manipulation devices. Due to the plethora of aged women now available as career cougars or divorcees, SOMEONE has to push this growing market upon the willing populace. The MILF craze has been huge, thanks in large part to movies and pornography. Also, they will prey upon the young and unstable minds of girls in their 20's by creating invisible competition.

Getting an OLDER woman is like buying a USED BMW. SURE it's nice looking and high quality, HOWEVER, it doesn't have the longevity that a NEW BMW has. The 20 year old IS that NEW bmw. Her body can weather much more, and her mind has much more growing, as well. Recycling old women back into the dating/mating pool is purely

1) for money
2) because there's a market for it
3) its controversial, so it will provide water cooler banter
4) to shape perceptions to actually TAKE these left over ladies

The only POSITIVE that may come from it is the implication that young girls aren't the only ones who CAN be hot and found attractice by men. I dated a 35 yo at 24, which to me, is significant. She didn't look it at all. She looked 29. Never popped her anyways. She was VERY prudish and didn't embrace her sexuality. Turned me off, and knew that banging her was heading ONLY for committment highway.

I personally HATE most of TV. I like a good story, and this is not that. I watched Bachelor as a joke, to pick apart what people do, and b/c my gf watched it occasionally. But mostly I did my own thing when she had it on. In the end, THAT was a joke, too, because the fool bachelor said "I love you" to both women and EXPECTED them not to be hurt or pissed in the end. And the best girl he let go? A 23 year old teacher from TX who was HOT. Yeah, she lived with a roommate from college, and the 2 girls laughed when the little dog peed on the carpet, but she was sweet as hell, totally into the guy, young, and a HOT TEACHER?! How many crappy girls are teachers that are hot?! NONE. I've never met a hot teacher who was a douche. Never. Same thing as a nurse. A nurse is generally a home-maker, someone who settles down and cares for people. I just don't get wtf he was thinking.

Anyways...

I hear ya. My favorite show of this genre was actually Beauty and the Geek. I liked seeing this geeky types shed their skin next to hot girls, of which some actually scored with. I think it was overplayed on both parties parts, BUT it was cool and funny to see transform, and to see what does not work.

One of the most predictable patterns of the matrix. Younger guys wanting [significantly] older women up until a certain stage in their life. Do you really think a 25yr old cave man was out there clubbing a 40yr old cavewomen over the head - my friggin' arse he was.

I'm sticking to my theory. When the typical AFC guy is younger and less aware (let's say 18-30'ish) he's still buying into the socio-programming plus a fear/lack of leadership.

The socio-programming is telling him that older women are more experienced (think the typical High School male fantasy of having an older woman rock his world, teach him everything, etc). And combine this with a general fear of leading (when it comes to a woman) and viola - you have guys "thinking" it's best to hook up with these cougars. Once aware of this pattern and detached from it, you can spot the rationalization/justification of any guy caught in this pattern. Edger you just did this (in case you hadn't noticed).

At some point the younger/AFC becomes more aware. He realizes that these cougars are just using him to stroke their ego's and that his life is going nowhere forward/positive. He also realizes that a 10yr age gap (when he's in his 20's and she's in her 40's) will translate to a negative situation for him when he's in his 30's and onward (and she's pushing 50+). And finally, he will realize at some point that all the capital things the [significantly] older woman brings to the relationship are really undermining his basic needs to provide and lead. Not to mention, more failed relationship history, single mommy, etc.

Hooking up with the "hot" 40yr old cougar who already has the house, cash and life established is just a fantasy that will eventually erode when age and reality bring the younger AFC to the conclusion - I want a younger HB who I can teach, mold and will be a healthy lay and mother to my chidrins for years to come.

This show should be amusing. Just might have to plug the TV back in after several years of collecting dust

 

[DJDamage]

The reality of it is that this guy will have his nob polished by several of the women, no matter of their age and then dump them all in a couple of months.

I consider it to be at the same level of a "pimp escort service" but to the rest of the female population and the brain behind the show, they try to portray it as being very "adult and sophisticated".

Reality show my ass! There should be 24 hours a day camera, now that is reality!! so we can catch some of them sneaking into the bathroom with him for a quick ass fvck (but you will never see this on regular cable t.v because after all t.v is made for women and not men). Most of the women are going on television for the exposure above everything else.

I am not sold on the idea there is any new trend different from human nature, and I always argue against the notion the media “brainwashes” people (it’s reflective and not causative), but for the sake of argument let’s suppose you are correct. If there is a trend then it is the natural and inevitable biproduct of the disappearing generational gap for which you observe (which once again let’s suppose you are correct).

 

[Latinoman]

Djdamage...the guy was a competitive and famous tennis player back in Australia. He didn't and should not need a show to get laid.

Now, he is not as competitive now and perhaps his ability to score has eroded considerably. That said...IMO many of these shows are staged.

40+ has never really done it for me. a woman's *ss goes to hell after 40. they start getting a gut. they start getting wiskers. etc.

I still hang with younger ones (21-22) and I agree, most of them aren't much good for stimulating convo, however, I still do and have in the past known a good many that I can get along well with. Hell, even the 20 yr old I was messing around with awhile back can go toe to toe with me on most subjects.

 

[STR8UP]

I remember being 30 and thinking that a 38 year old woman was simply too old.

Maybe it's BAD, but I'm almost 36 and even I think 38 is old for a woman!

Single men in their success years (mid 30s-40s) will NOT go for women in their 40s. So...that leave younger men that due to todays younger generation of television, computers, and techno are already brainwashed and soft and they cannot compete with todays mature men (due to new diets and fitness techniques the generation gap in heath/fitness has shrinked) that are healthy/career oriented/and more stable. No competition.

My friends and I who are early-mid 30's ALL date women who are in their 20's as a general rule. Occasionally a 30 something slips through the cracks (as it did for me last year, hehe) but I doubt I could ever consider a serious relationship with a chick who is in her 30's.

Any man with a 2 in front of his age dating women 5+ years older than them and OVER 30 (29 with a 32 is okay) is not a DJ and have some serious issues. I don't care the justifications and excuses. That's the way it is. And if he has the 2 and dates 40+ then he is desperate as he lacks the skills to get prime meat.

For an older woman, a younger man is a conquest. A boy toy.

They don't take you seriously. They laugh behind your back and use condescending words to describe you to others. I know, cause I know a couple of cougars and have heard them talking about their younger guys.

It's a joke, and if you are a guy, you are the butt of it.

There is no doubt in my mind that the 30 man will get the woman in her 40s. Women in that age group buy more and the sponsors of the show wants that money. But younger generation of men will fall for it. I bet you they will portrait the younger ones as party animals and the older ones as more mature. LOL

I'd say you are probably right. I gotta fire up the ole DVR and catch a few episodes of this...should be enlightening.

Sinistar, I don't let ANYONE control me, but MYSELF. Controlling is for the weak, close-minded people of the world. I am attracted to older women because that's how I am, that's my preference, I find them to have more sex appeal than the younger ones. And as far as fear/lack of leadership goes, count me outta that, because I do a good job at leading and am confident at all times with it.

2nd, I am not looking to "settle" with these women, or get into relationships with them. I just wanna f*ck 'em and keep 'em as f*ck buddies.

Not to get into this debate again, but the media is REACTIVE, not PROACTIVE.

I'm sure the people pulling the strings on the tv networks are still mostly older males.

Ratings write their paycheck, not pushing an agenda. They are simply being smart and anticipating that there will be a market for this show ( I personally think it will be BIG)

Sorry, I simply don't buy this "evil media" stuff.

Yea, what a load of CRAP.

A woman is either GOOD in the sack or she isn't. After she has fukked a couple dozen times she's gonna be 90% as good as she will ever be. Add a couple of new sex partners in there and she's at 95% with the new exposure.

My two best lays were 21 yr olds. Oh yea, and there was a 24 yr old I nailed a couple of times when I was 21 that was pretty good. Other than that they have all been average, even the ones that were 30+.

Interesting observation.

You make a good point about the disappearing generation gap, and it may be contributing to an extent. But the thing is, to these women it's nothing more than a game to prove their worth. They aren't marrying these younger guys.

I wasn't saying that the media has brainwashed them, that's BS. I was asking if society has changed their way of thinking (that older women should be able to compete with younger ones), or if younger guys are TRULY becoming more attracted to older women.

Just look at the number of posts in the discussion forum that have to do with older women. A year or two ago there was no buzz about MILF'S and cougars and the like. Today it's every other freakin post.
