I just happen to be one of those young women who consider older men attractive. Some of my peers may not, but I think it's far more attractive to have your head on straight, treat others with respect, and be comfortable with yourself. There's something sexy about life experience, intelligent conversation, and the ability to distinguish the really important things in life, that attracts me to older men. And in my personal, albeit limited, experience, most twenty-something men have not reached that level. I'm not saying that I don't date men in their twenties; my ex will be 27 this year, but he was also not what society would call "attractive" at 6'2, 120 pounds, and a computer geek. As a matter of fact, my family told me that he wasn't good looking enough for me, but, even after his cheating on me, I still think he's beautiful, even if he still doesn't know what he wants. To me, being "hot" is an individual thing.
