Why Younger Men Are Dating Older Women
Younger men appear to be showing increasing interest in dating older women, challenging the traditional idea that men generally want younger partners. The attraction can involve confidence, emotional maturity, independence and the different relationship dynamic an older partner might offer. It also raises an interesting double standard, because society has historically been far more accepting of older men dating younger women than the reverse.
