Mostly 25–60? I mostly only notice the attraction state of the ones I see as desirable partners, though I've dated a few that turned out to be a very poor fit.


You do realize that aggregating women into the 25-60 range pretty much turns your data from anecdotal to outright useless?

25-35 range is vastly different from the 50-60 range, for quite obvious reasons.


There are lots and lots of vast differences among the different women who have been attracted to me over the years; age is just one of them, while others include national origin, educational attainment, socio-economic class, country of residence, pluriparity, conscientiousness, openness to experience, agreeability, extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism, autism, height, weight, sexual orientation, political party alignment, favorite operating system, hair color, skin color, and religion.

What's so special about their age to you?

I don't think I have a sample size large enough to confidently discriminate among particular age groups' attraction to me. I'm not, like, a celebrity or something. Even if I did, I don't see how such a sample could avoid being far too biased to draw any useful conclusions from.
