What is the view on women dating younger men? I mean, you see men all the time that date younger women and they get the high five  from their buddies BUT, when I mention to friends that I may go out with a guy that is 10 years younger than me they completely flip out.... WHAT gives???

Most of the men I've dated have been younger than myself, it just happened they thought I was their age

I've given my views about big age differences in relationships in an earlier thread, but that was geared more towards older men and much younger women.
To be fair and balanced, I guess my arguments would have to include older women and younger men. But I'm talking 17, 20, 25 yr age differences, not the 10 described here.
Actually, the argument against older women going out with men in their 20's and early thirties is rather more direct and easier to justify. What happens if the guy wants to have a family? Are most women willing to have kids and raise yet "another" family (assuming she's already raised one) well into her 50's and 60's? I would think most would shudder at the thought.
Now, if you're attracted to younger men just for the raw sex and energy, no problem. Just step up to the plate and be honest about it. I'm rather tired of hearing some disingenuous fairytale, romance novel crap about "being in love" and "we're so right for each other".

lol...You mean you don't want some young stud in your back pocket for the occasional late night booty call, hubba? 
Good for you.
But ten year age differences nowadays is like nothing, so maybe it can work for your age group?

Anything younger than 10 years my age is a bit much for me. Even 10 years is pushing it. I'm just not that interested. I know that separates me from most men my age but so be it.

He might just be setting up a little MILF action.
Age is just an attitude.

I have been "seeing" a guy that is 26 and I am 35. He doesn't want children, but I know the relationship won't go anywhere. He is more of a time filler right now, and he knows it. I don't see anything wrong with a woman dating a younger man. I personally am 35, but feel alot younger. I don't want someone 10 yrs older than me who is sitting home on a saturday night (unless for kid reasons, etc) and has lost their "youth".

I am absolutely not comfortable with younger men! I like to share my time with someone I have things in common with. I have raised my family and have moved on to the grandchild stage. It's lots of fun too! I can't see relating to a man under 40. Have tried it, it's not for me.

oh I hear ya screamin girl! I dated a guy for 16 months that was 40 years old and I swear each month it got harder and harder to get him to leave the house - all he wanted to do was buy movies and stay home on the couch - which is all fine and dandy but comeone not ALLLL the time.

Well, let's see here..
I once dated a guy that was 2 years younger than myself, and he was a bit on the immature side. 
My ex husband was only 3 years older than me, and he was a major A$$.
I am now with a man who is 11 years older, and he treats me like a princess. I feel that with his age came maturity and with his life experiences came the knowledge of how to treat a woman.
I don't have anything against younger men, but in my life experiences, older has been the better deal. I also don't feel that there is anything wrong with an age difference... as long as both parties are happy, and LEGAL. To each their own, and to hell with those who wish to judge.. 
 Happy Dating

Well, I'm 45, err, no, 46, yikes, soon to be 47, and I hardly ever sit home on a Saturday night, or for really any other night for that matter. I play hockey with 20 year olds, go to college parties, and spend an inordinate amount of time getting out of the house, unless it's time for a gormet dinner party.
I guess this is the stigma that younger active women have about older guys in general, as well as older actiive guys have about younger women in general.
Why?

Not really a stigma for me just seemed to be the case for him. He was a great guy and in great shape but just never ever wanted to do anything.
I am very active as well between softball, running and going non-stop with the kids - what is DOWN time lol I guess I should be more greatful when I get it huh

I think that as women get a little older, say, past 30 or 35, the younger man can become more of an option. When you're 25 and looking for a reasonably mature date, a 20 year-old is statistically unlikely to fit the bill

Hubba,
You'll still look good at 45, so I wouldn't worry about that. The last younger man I dated was 11 years younger than myself. He was immature, and an alcoholic.
When he and a buddy started acting like a-holes one day, I told his friend he was all his, and to take him home w/ him. Seriously. I did.
Life is too short to put up w/ less than what we deserve. Age is just a number. Immaturity doesn't discriminate. It's the way he treats you that is important. Oh--and he has employment.
