Dating a Young Man

Our society doesn’t accept older women and younger men relationships. However, older men and younger women get two thumbs up. Why?

I am an older woman who is enjoying a passionate relationship with a handsome, sexy and very attentive, and younger man. We have been in this relationship for well over three years and he still can’t get enough of me and I certainly can’t get enough of him, if you know what I mean.

When we are out on a date, I’m not sure if the hateful looks are about the fact that he his younger or the fact that he is a big beautiful Black Man. All I have to say to all the haters is, try it you might like it, (a younger man or a young Black man, take your pick). Love should be accepted where you find it, not limited to race or color.

I think more white girls are getting the hang of my last sentence. Looking around our society, it appears that white women are willing to cross the color line when it comes to love. Some have done so at the expense of losing friends and family, but they are happy in love, which sometimes, like any other relationship, last and sometimes it doesn’t.

I for one will look for love in all the right persons, but for now I am going to enjoy my lover who has an insatiable appetite for me.

Older ladies, don’t be afraid to cross the lines, whether they are dating younger men are dating younger men that are a different race.

One life, live it.

    I totally agree that race should play no part in choosing friends and partners. Women dating younger men seems out of sync with the way our brains are wired.
    Men choose women based on their physical attractiveness, which unfortunately wanes as we age. Gravity is not kind to us.
    Women choose men based on their character, which often comes with age (Not necessarily). Most of us want someone to take care of us, and younger men often lack the social graces that we admire.
    Of course these are vast generalities with lots of exceptions, but it does explain why men are attracted to young, beautiful women, and they expect the women not to change over the years.
    Women are attracted to older men with character and refinement, and we hope that they will change as we train them.

    I too date a younger man. And I’m loving it! We are of course the same race but I get the looks too! I like who likes me. I can’t help that younger men find me sexy and attractive! Nice article.

    Very good topic. I society is so confused and unfair about many topics and you hit on one of them.

  5. Norma Says:

    I don’t see anything wrong with this relationship, and for those who do, get over it. Nice Ohsugar.

    I totally agree, what does it matter as long as you love them!

    Like it.

    Hi Ruby,

    Great article once again–I too agree with you in that society really has swept that relationship ‘type’ into the shed. The number of questioning, disgusted, or simply hating expressions that I’ve seen directed to a couple that happen to be my relatives that have such a relationship is disturbingly numerous.

    You addressed an interesting and key issue here; excellent work.

    Whoops! Sorry, OhSugar–I could’ve sworn I was viewing work through Ruby’s profile. My bad-that comment is directed to you, then (the one above).

    Sorry once again!

    This is becoming the norm. I am happy to see that women are beginning to make themselves happy, with whom ever treats them right. I wouldn’t rob the cradle, but I have no problem with dating a younger, few years younger, man. Good article.

    I am for loving the right person, no matter the age, but not too young. Life is about living and loving. Good job

    Great Article. I think if older men can date younger women then older women should be able to date younger men. Why is it men get to do everything and it is okay but yet when a woman does it, it is wrong and socially unacceptable. sorry guys, i’m not trying to pick on you here, it’s just something that has been floating around in my head for awhile.

    love your style here. I think it is great that someone step out of their box.

    Our society has two sets of rules. One set says if you are and older man, you can have a woman, almost as young as you like. The other set says that an older woman should not date a younger man. I believe you love who you love as long as the ages are legal.

  16. OhSugar Says:

    Love it. I don’t see anything wrong with dating whomever you want to, as long as they are of legal age.

  17. KansasGirl Says:

    I have no problem with anyone dating a younger person as long as both are age appropriate. Nice job.

    Sometimes this can be a disaster, and sometime it turns out just fine. I think it depends on the individuals. Nice

    Great Job.

    I don’t know…I think each situation should be taken into account. Releationships with people older or younger then you may always come with some sort of issue. There are stereotypes for both men and women. When a woman is dating an older man she is seen as a gold digger, for example
