Everyone else has already said it, but this is spot on. Dating men in their late 20s/early 30s fills me with huge embarrassment after the fact, and I have very little respect for men that age who exclusively date people in their late teens/early 20s.https://www.newstatesman.com/2019/07/29-i-look-back-my-teenage-relationships-older-men-more-not-less-confusion …

So true. I find that it still happens, too; men in their 40s / 50s dating women in their 20s. And very difficult to say that outloud (as a woman in my 40s) without sounding bitter.
(nb, if you want to date a woman in their 20s I categorically do not want to date you) -
Yeah, it’s a peculiar tactic - that behaviour is a firm red light, and most people do date age appropriately. It just means I have no respect for those men, because I know how I feel now about the older men I dated then. It’s experience, not ‘jealousy’.

It continues. Plenty of men in their 50s have a dating range of 25-40 on their profiles.

Yes I think newer apps have made this easier: friends said pre-Tinder you could see age ranges on apps, and never messaged blokes who set only younger parameters.
