Age Discrimination? Curiosity....

So if discrimination based on race - a protected class - is accepted in this hobby, then obviously discriminating based on age should not raise any eyebrows.

However, I am struck by the seeming absence of logic you have disclosed. WTF does one 35 year old guy being a mental case with anger issues have to do with every other guy under 40? That seems an irrational reason to discriminate against half the men on the planet. lol.

Don't get me wrong. I'm 61 and would be happy for all providers to exclude all those wild and crazy kids under 55. More action for me. Your decision just doesn't appear to have a rational basis.

Well let me rationalize my purpose for you... I have seen several gentlemen under 40, and for reasons out of my control I seem to become an obsession to them. For instance, no names disclosed, but I have had several pm me with weirdo tendencies, stating "wow, you really seen that dude, or why didn't you let me know you needed some money. For one I did not need the money hence the restrictions, and for two, I don't need a boyfriend, or attachments for that reason, thus leading me to put restrictions, age wise! I limit the age, and NBA, and have come across a lot of respectable, upstanding gentlemen that knows this is a hobby, and respects that, ironically they a?re all over the age of 40 and above... So does that rationalize it

Of course. Several experiences amounts to a data set, upon which it is rational to act. I was simply going by your OP that made it look like you made a decision based on 1 experience.

To the OP


I don't blame you. It might hurt your business but if your ok with that then why not?
And this is coming from another one of those mid thirty something guys who's hoping he can come out and play asap

Don't get me wrong, if the conversation is to my liking, and there is no red-flags exceptions have and can be done. I was just curious as to what the gentlemen think. I feel that the only way a discrimination can hurt your business, is if you are naive and have no clue as to when to say yes, or no... So fortunately I have not experienced anything of that nature....

The possibilities are endless... Let me know when you come this way, something maybe able to be worked out.... That is if the criteria is right

This industry is overflowing with the absence of logic. From both the ladies and gents.


I love older men because they have a bit more experience. I have never been interested in anyone in their 20's, and I didn't date men in their mid 30's until I became 35. But I have never discriminated against any age over 21 unless there's a maturity issue. Some of my best clients were younger than I would normally consider in real life.

But what percentage of guys under the age of 40 have acted this way? Yes, there will be a correlation between age and inappropriate behavior, but not a significant one(especially after the age of 30). Also, why discriminate against black men? I think you are being irrational when you discriminate based on age and race. I believe you are just not attracted to younger men, you prefer older men, which is fine, I just wish you would come out and say it.
