A big age difference in a relationship isn’t a new phenomenon, but somehow it remains harshly judged. Bystanders quickly form an opinion on the relationship of an older man or an older woman with a young partner. An older woman seen out with a younger man must be a nymphomaniac, a younger woman with an older man is suspected of being a gold digger. The older man is looking to recoup his lost youth with a younger woman, while a younger man wants to brag about sleeping with an older woman. Pop psychology at its best. If you’re lucky, your friends will support you, but if there is a considerable age difference between you and your partner, be prepared for disapproval to some degree.

A women’s website put together a list of attractive older men. The list featuring 50 Sexy Men over 50 is quite old, but much like good wine (or cheese :) ) men get better with age (except for the late, great Paul Newman, who is no longer with us, but who definitely was one of the most sexy older men).

While not everyone will agree with all the choices of the jury – made up of well-known older women like Candice Bergen – and some choices are certainly not everyone’s idea of sexy (Arnold Schwarzenegger? really?), it’s nice to see sexy men needn’t always be skinny youngsters that have barely reached puberty. Some of the sexy men over 50 are probably sexy due to their power, fame or money, but some are just genuinely attractive older men with experience and a few wrinkles. My favourite sexy older man is David Bowie!

Next we’ll have to find a list that honours sexy women over 50.
