Age and players

Nailing a teenage girl is great for the ego and psychology of an older guy but otherwise overrated (in my view). Ego and psychology boost are great, of course. On average, though, teens are flightier, more boring, and more anxious than girls who are even 20 or 21 and a bit more used to the world of normal sexual interaction and male attention. To be sure, most late teens are psychologically adult.... fewer, it seems, in this generation than in previous ones (thanks for feminist coddling and the destruction of personal responsibility by the left). Too much time on the phone has stunted the social and psychological development of many teens.
If you're going to nail chicks that young it's also probably a good idea to hang out near universities. There literally aren't that many 17 - 19 year old girls around (I list "17" depending on age of consent in a guy's state/country), so if a guy really wants to pursue that route, it helps to go where they are.
In my own life, I don't notice the differences between hot 19 and 23 year olds, and I don't have so much skirt on hand that I spend a lot of time thinking about the gap. Is she hot? Then I try to bang her. I don't target tightly by age.
The real important question for a guy in his 40s is about his life. Does he have kids already? Want them? If he wants them, preferably with a sane woman, that should be in the background of his mind... foreground, even. He can easily master the daygame skillset, then have kids, but reality is what it is and a guy's options for kids narrows as he gets older. There is no way around "the wall." Time is real, aging is real.
I just read, "One of the most important life lessons: if you have no children, the last third of your life will be filled with increasing death. If you have children, the last of your life will be filled with increasing life. Choose wisely." Most 50+ guys don't seem to be most obsessed with clacking skirt... they seem most interested in their families. This is not the "last word," and I'm not and never will be a guy to announce that chasing skirt is somehow meaningless.
Priorities do change. I have seen lots of guys who fucked off in their 20s and 30s suffer for it age 35+, when they have no good jobs, no good community, and few good options. Maybe age 18 - 28 was a wild ride, but then things suck. Some guys who are age 40 may be doing that to themselves. By age 55 or 60 they may want the family they were too busy to have. Will they be 60 and still chasing skirt? Could be.
I think a lot of guys need to get the skirt-chasing out of the way. I'd guess that means a minimum of 30 bangs, maybe 50. At some point diminishing returns kick in. What then? What is the organizing principle for a guy's life? For many young guys, it's chasing p***y. Life is about change.
I can't speak for all guys. Every guy's situation is different. I'm merely trying to think things through.
