Young Men Really Do Want Older Women, New Study Says

A few months ago a study came out that broke the hearts of women everywhere. Researched and compiled by the fine people at OKCupid, it revealed that when it comes to what men really want in a woman, it’s youth. Do you remember that study? You know, the one that basically said that if you’re a woman over 22, you should just give up and crawl under a rock somewhere? I’m sure you do, as much as you tried to forget it.

Along with sharing that depressing news it also shared this painful line: “Once a woman passes the age of 22, she becomes exponentially less attractive to men.” Oh, how lovely. And while that still may be true for some men whose fear of ageing keeps them grappling like a rabid vampire for a woman young enough to be their daughter or granddaughter, another study has come out revealing otherwise. Yes, ladies, there is hope for all of you over 22 after all. Can I get a collective high-five?
