BREAKING: Study Concludes Men Are Shallow AF

No matter how old they are, guys still prefer women who are this one age.

OkCupid co-founder Christian Rudder used the data he had from OkCupid users and found the bleak and yet somehow unsurprising truth that no matter how old men get, they still find women in their early 20s to be the most attractive, Jezebel reports

Rudder found that women tend to favor older men up until the age of 29, which is when they tend to like men who are the same age or slightly younger than they are. At age 40, women start to look for men who are exclusively younger than they are. On the other side of the coin, men prefer 20-year-old women almost exclusively (don't worry, there are some 21-, 22-, 23-, and 24-year-olds in there too, but that's the maximum age) from the age of 20 all the way up until they are 50 years old. 

You could chalk this up to a purely "Well, maybe it's just that men are attracted to women when they're seen as being most fertile and women are attracted to men who have could potentially have stronger sperm," which is a much more palatable way to look at it than "Oh, cool, so women stop being attractive around the age of 21? Bye, guys."
