When I was a teenager, I thought people in their 20’s were the most attractive. Now that I’m about 40, I still think people in their 20’s are the most attractive. It’s hard for me to believe that I might ever be attracted to someone past retirement age, even when I’m past retirement age myself, unless the person is like one of those celebrities who look way younger than they are.

This isn’t something I can comfortably ask most older people I know, but there’s one man who admits that he isn’t and one woman who is. Which is more normal?

    I think you are generally attracted to people around your age but it changes. When you are a kid, girls your age are attractive, but so are older girls. As you get older, older women become more attractive, but younger women don’t stop being attractive.
