That’s a false assumption.

Donald Trump wasn’t your average 59 year old man. He possessed, and still possesses, the energy and vitality of a much younger man. Most men at that age are already starting to fall apart.

It’s also untrue that women don’t age well. I’m honestly not trying to brag, but I will turn 49 next month and most people think that I’m much younger. I was even almost carded several months ago. It probably helps that I weigh less than a hundred pounds and wear size zero pants.

IMO, the double standard that men get better with age and women lose their worth is terribly unfair and inaccurate.

I don’t recall anyone saying that women lose their ‘worth’; but many of us do lose our beauty - and a lot of that is due to developing sour temperaments.

(I think you’d have to ask a man about all of that ‘unfair’ and ‘inaccurate’ stuff...)

Straw man. I did not say "men get better with age". My position is that men lose their ability to attract the opposite sex at a slower rate than women.

In the post you replied to, I specified "A 55 year old man, in good physical condition like Todd".

A woman in her 40's, who has kept herself in good physical condition, will still get male attention. Just not as much as she did in her 20's.

At the OkCupid dating site, a guy wrote an article on how men SHOULD take a look at older women. But the actual statistics show that men tend to prefer younger women.
