Men improve with age as a rule.
I think men is their forties look better than they tend to in their twenties (unless they are gorgeous from the off which is rare) Women tend to be attracted to older men because it suggests experience,increased social status and wisdom and also they look better.
Women look better the younger they are and past about the age of forty their sexual allure for males seriously declines because the chances of pro creating succesfully are less certain.
It's all hard wired in our genes I'm afraid and nothing to be done about it.
The good thing is at about 55 men catch up in the old ageing game and no longer look so good as they age. So nature knows what its doing. i agree that Matthew had a more interesting (and appealing!)face than Joey but that's because as a woman I find different things attractive to men.
As I stated earlier men tend to prize beauty and youth,women don't. Quite the opposite as young men are unlikely to be able to provide for offspring,thats the whole purpose for the chemistry between the sexes after all,to get us to further the species!
