I'm not saying I want a relationship with a twenty year old or that women older than that are categorically unattractive, but as far as looks alone go, when I started puberty at 11, I thought women around 20 were the best-looking. When I was 20, I thought women around 20 were the best looking. And now that I'm 40, I still think women around 20 are the best-looking. Maybe I'll change my mind as I keep getting older but I doubt it. Having to accept this is simply part of having to accept the more general pattern of physical decline produced by aging - I don't look bad and women my age don't look bad, but both they and I don't look as good as we used to.
That's interesting. I think women are most attractive in their late 20s to early 30s. Younger, to me, they still have child-like features. Older, the effects of aging start to take place. As for men, 30s and 40s is where it is.
They get more plump around 26, at 20, they have baby face, and are almost bones. At 26, they have a middle build. After that, they get depressed or something, and tend to be less fun. Just my opinion imho. Even if she is attractive, her personality just ruins it.
