Men and women equally attracted to younger partners, study suggests

A study from the University of California, Davis, found that both men and women are slightly more attracted to younger partners after blind dates, as reported by Paul Eastwick, the study's lead author.
The research analyzed data from over 6,000 blind dates arranged by the matchmaking service Tawkify, focusing on people seeking long-term partners.
Most participants had an upper age limit for preferred dates, but this limit did not affect their actual choices, according to the study.
The findings suggest that the preference for youth in dating is present for both genders, challenging common beliefs about age preferences in couples.
