    Age Peak
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the differing sexual peak ages for men and women, with claims that men peak between ages 15 and 95, while women peak just before their wedding day. It is suggested that men typically reach their peak in their late teens to early 20s, and women in their late 20s to early 30s. The conversation touches on the acceptability of relationships with younger partners, often referred to as "toyboys." Participants express skepticism about the origins of these claims, noting that they are largely based on hearsay rather than scientific research. There is a mention of pop culture perceptions suggesting men peak around 18 and women around 40. The discussion concludes with an observation about the timing of these peaks, implying that a man's peak aligns with maximizing sexual partners, while a woman's peak coincides with seeking a monogamous relationship.

Probably they do.
However, I've heard there is a difference between guys and girls in that respect.

Men are supposed to be at their peak in their late teens and early 20's and women late 20's to early 30's. That means toyboys by nature are completely acceptable ladies :smile:

How was that researched and collerated?

Hearsay and conjecture mainly on my part, but I didn't realize this would be relocated to biology and thus that comment was intended for General discussion where the thread was originally. I'm no biologist but those two ages, especially where I come from, are accepted as a kind of common knowledge of the approximate times men and women are supposed to reach their sexual peak. Of course perhaps a biologist could confirm or deny that with some research paper they've remembered from days past or textbook that might mention it.
 
Pop culture has it that men peak around 18 and women peak around 40.

I'm sure it's mere coincidence that a man's peak falls at a time when he is most likely to maximize partners, and a woman's peak falls at a time when she is mostly likely to have a monogamous partner.
