Favorite Charts of the Day

From the much maligned FiveThirtyEight:

Here is a graph of the age of men women find most attractive:


As women get older, the age of the men they find most attractive increases as well. And for men:


Men always find 20 year olds most attractive.

You could extend that back down to 13 year olds and up to 80 year olds and find the same thing, I suspect. Not sure what that says about men, women, societal definitions of beauty or what. But nice to see quasi-empirical confirmation of what I've always suspected.
