Reasons to Love Younger Men

They Give You a Boost

Not only are you a sexy mama capable of catching the eye of a young stud, he’ll be impressed by everything about you, from your worldly knowledge to your sexual know-how. When you’re dating someone who thinks you’re the coolest thing since Kool-Aid, your self-esteem’s going to climb a few notches.

They Appreciate You

Guys mature enough to date older women are mature enough to know they’ve got a good thing (something I wish I could say for all men). They admire your experience and wisdom and appreciate you for simply being a part of their lives.

They're Teachable

If you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, it’s best to get a new pup. Not as set in their ways as their older counterparts, younger men are more open-minded and more willing to try new things. Which means they’re more willing to please (wink, wink).

They’re Compatible

While the exact age women reach their sexual peak is still up for debate, it’s fair to say that women in their thirties tend to be more in tune with their sexual needs than girls in their early twenties. That being said, younger men have more stamina and enthusiasm … you do the math.

They Have Less Baggage

Men in their early twenties typically don’t have ex-wives or children, and they haven’t had too much time to collect debt or seriously screw up their lives. Less baggage equates to less drama and more freedom – a serious advantage of dating younger men.

They’re Not Threatened

Tired of dating girls who don’t know what they want, younger men are attracted to the confidence and independence possessed by an older woman. While a man equal in age may be threatened by your success and autonomy, a younger guy admires you for it.

They Have More Energy

If it’s excitement and fun you’re looking for, date a younger guy. Whether you like to salsa, rock climb, scuba dive, travel, whatever — those young ones can go, go, go and are always up for the next adventure.

They’re Sensitive

Although the societal pressure to “be a man” still exists, younger generations of men seem to be more in touch with their emotional sides, which can be a good thing when they’re dating us.

They’re in Good Shape

While this perk doesn’t necessarily apply to all younger men, it’s safe to say that compared with the older crowd, these guys are easy on the eyes. Looks aren’t everything, but when you’ve got a man who’s more apt to work out, still has baby-smooth skin, a full head of hair and a hard body, well, who doesn’t want that?

They Have Family Ties

While I wouldn't advocate dating a momma's boy, being with a younger guy allows you to see how he acts in family situations (for better or for worse) because he is more likely to be closer to his parents than an older man would be.

They’re Still Men!

Many of us tend to discount younger men as if they are no more than boys. While this is true for some, younger men are still that — men.
