Finally, here’s the full episode on a topic that everyone wonders about. It’s no secret that men often want to date younger women. But what is it about those guys who are actually successful at doing so? And is it really true that many amazing young women actually prefer older men?

First off, what actually counts as an ‘older man’ to a younger woman? Does the ‘half your age plus seven’ rule make any sense? What if our mental images and/or stereotypes about what an older man and younger woman look like as a couple are challenged?

Above and beyond all of that, what are some legit factors to consider when there’s an age gap? I mean, is age really ‘just a number’?

What’s up with dating sites only for people over fifty…is that what the market is really looking for? And speaking of online dating, how about those sites that specialize in ‘sugar daddy’ arrangements?

Is there something to be said for being an ‘old soul’, looking for someone who’s a better fit at an older age? Or is it that younger women like older men because ‘little boys don’t grow up’?

Wait a minute…on that note, is it that men who prefer younger women really only want a tighter, sexually fit body to have sex with? Or is there more to both what younger women and older men tend to be looking for?

And what about the ‘skeletons in the closet’ as we get older, and the effect it has on dating someone younger? What if older guy’s new young wife wants to have kids? And is younger wife still gonna be ‘all in’ when her husband is old and in need of care while she’s still young and active?

How about the newest trend of older women basically demanding a younger man to go out with? What’s driving that?
