Why do girls start looking hotter when they get a little older??

We're more intelligent, know what we want, and are more confident and less needy.

that's probably your preference

I, respectfully, disagree. I know many that act as they are in high school and fight to look young

To me...it's preference and opinion. Not all share the OPs views.

I would embrace gray hairs amd wrinkles....others wouldn't

Because we are actually hotter (Fahrenheit-wise.)

That's called menopause hon

AMEN......

Why a persons notices a greater "hotness" and attributes it to age is probably due to 1 of 2 reasons.

1. Their potential mates do something to make themselves look "hotter."
- they've joined the Joneses competition so are always trying to look "hotter" (conform more to socialized beauty standards or defy age).

- they establish routines and security in their life so are less stressed.

- they realize they are getting older so start taking care of themselves more; mentally, physically, nutritionally.

2. Your (no one specific, the male persons) perceptions changed.
- you need validation from mommy more than peers.

- you've spent the last nearly 18 years of your life in relationships that lasted at least a year. with your teacher(s), who gave you purpose, and validated your efforts.
younger women may constantly reject you, or dump you after a couple of months, but a teacher is always there, m-f, offering guidance, information, grades, talking about work rather than scary emotional stuff. you may be trying to recreate that consistent relationship since no other relationship has lasted as long.

- your direct communication skills are poor. Their biological clock ticking down until menopause kicks up sexuality a factor which subconsciously works its way to behavior i.e. indirect communication.
Poor communication skills tend to force indirect communication skills to take precedence, causing you to react more strongly to them.

- predator/hunter instinct and insecurities. healthy gazelles jump about and go off in random directions, and fight more vigorously. Hard to catch. Wounded prey tends to walk slowly in static patterns and capitulate without much fight. Easy to catch.
People in their life tend to form routines and patterns, are more slow to change as they get older, and will avoid confrontation more often in order to protect the status quo. Older women = perceived easier to catch, with less effort or danger. greater insecurities = less sure of catching juicy healthy prey so time to switch to weaker.

- hormonal shifts with subsequent influences on attractions.
- identity shifts with subsequent influences on attractions. When 14 you thought girls in your class were hot. When 18 you find 22 year old sorority girls hot. When 22 you don't find 14 year old girls hot.

- availability. as a human being wherever you go you subconsciously put every member of the opposite sex that is noticed by your senses (not necessarily your conscious decision making self) through an ROI for potential mate.
You may live a life where the majority of people your senses encounter in a day is older women.
your subconscious may simply switch over your conscious perceptions to compel you to pursue the greater number of potentials.

- increase of insecurities and fear. you may have gone through a lot of life changes all at once and your parents sucked, not adequately preparing you for them. Puberty came, you have to move out, go to a brand new school, start a new job, take care of yourself, maybe you moved to a new town or city, so you look for a somewhat static authority figure to develop a relationship safe harbor support system.

- control issues. younger or more age similar women you see as individuals, and individually they keep dumping you, or relationships keep failing, or you aren't really getting what you want.
So you've come up with this idea of a group that will fulfill everything the individual women won't, and the easiest way to differentiate the two is by age. Creating a "grass is greener" group labeled "older women."

- lots more, but I'm tired of typing.

But suffice it to say it's either their doing but most likely your own, without realizing it, why you would find girls more attractive as they age. You are aging and changing too.

They are beginning the incubational transformation...ultimately discovering their..."Inner Cougar".
If you listen carefully, you can hear her
purrrrr.

Thanks everyone, I totally agree!

The first girl that I thought looked "hot," was about...six or seven, I think. I was five, so it wasn't as creepy as it might sound.

I kept on thinking that some girls looked "hot" as I aged, with the lower age gradually rising, and the upper age gradually rising as well.

The closest I can come to what I think the OP is talking about, is when I was in my twenties, and I came to the first intense recognition that there was a HA-YOOOGE difference between WOMEN and GIRLS.

Eventually, I realized that what had happened, was that I had gained enough experience and maturity, that I could see the intelligence, and the depth of the WOMEN'S understanding of the world, that the GIRLS didn't have. That depth in the WOMEN, meant that what they saw in me was much more meaningful, and much more reliable.

And when you have the sense that a woman knows what she is about, and what the world is about...and she still likes you, THAT is incredibly desirable and exciting, and of course, attractive.

just like wine... well speaks for itself lol

and as men get a little older the younger woman starts looking hotter.

such is life

At least it was a polite way of saying you want a milf or cougar or whatever else they're called these days.

Still brown nosing though, whatever way you put it.

What age of girl are you referring to and what age do you consider "older"?

Some "whine" to become vinegar...still good for a salad tossing.

because of your personal perception

I think men feel more attracted to women with experience . women who could spoil them in bed and help them feel their manhood , their narcissism .

Yes I have a question..
Lol.. why is it whenever I'm in a rush all the lights on the street or red..??

It's the hot flashes.
