Lol - well, I must admit, I am not so worried anymore about being a "notch" on someone's belt. After all, if I choose to accept one of these young guys, it would obviously just be with the intention of a fling on my part too. I'm not saying I'm going to - but I think I am starting to understand it a little. I'm at a point in my life where I could appreciate the fun in a little sexual fling - and they, or course, are at a point in their lives where that's all they want!
I have questioned some of these guys about it, and I really don't think it's just about us being "easy" or "desperate". (After all, let's face it - young girls are so slutty nowadays, guys don't have to date older to find an easy lay. Plus, the more I push them away, the more they seem to like the challenge.) From my "research", I get the feeling they fall into the following categories:
1) Guys who had an early experience with an older woman and it has become kind of a fetish. I've been told about teenage boys jacking off to pictures of their mother's friends, 17 year old boys sleeping with their piano teachers, etc. (I'm not sure I really WANT to be part of some guy's fetish.)
2) Guys who find girls their own age to be vacuous or clingy. (I do think, at my age, I'm much more independent and straightforward, as well as less needy and emotional, than I was in my 20's. So I guess they may have a point there. And if you were a 27 year old guy who didn't want to be in a relationship or get a girl pregnant, but just wanted to have fun....)
3) Guys who just aren't thinking at all about the practicalities of age or stage of life, and are just responding viscerally to someone they find attractive. (And it's still a complete mystery to me that I would be such an object, but there are some women my age who are really beautiful still.)
4) Guys who want a woman to be dominant (I only encountered one of these - yuck).
5) Guys who assume an older woman will be more sexually adventurous or experienced (well, probably true, that )
Surprisingly, what I haven't encountered is guys who are looking for financial support (although they are probably out there) or guys who just can't get women their own age (I'm telling you, these young guys who contact me are cute! None of them would have any difficulty getting dates.)
