    Hey guys! I'm 19 and i've only recently come out of the closet and joined my college's LGBT society. Everything's going great but I just noticed something in that i'm only attracted to guys my own age (18-23) whereas a lot of the other members in the LGBT are talking about much older guys (30+) is it normal for me to only be interested in my own age group?

    Of course! Sexuality is varied.

    I would know a sizeable minority of gay guys who like older men. The vast majority like guys their own age. Its just the group your with that it happens to be skewed!

    Some of your straight friends will be attracted to older women, some wont! Some will have weird and wonderful fetishes, some wont!

    And in the highly unlikely event you feel peer pressured into experimenting with an older guy, I wouldnt unless you really want to. A few friends did (against their better judgement as they really didnt want to, but just did as they thought it was the normal) and they since regret it!

    ^^^ this

    I like guys my own age, really not a fan of the 'older gentleman' stuff. :)

    Yeah, everyone is different. I personally like older women (muchly) but my partner is younger... it's all just guidelines, eh?

    :D

    it's just like anyone, I guess. Some women really go for older men. Older men, as we know, just love the younger ladies ;). So it's the same for us folk.
