It's no secret that men tend to see younger women as more attractive, but according to a graph based on data from OKCupid dating profiles, women tend to be most attracted to men who are around their same age. But the case is drastically different for men; the graph shows that once a woman passes the age of 22, she becomes exponentially less attractive to men.

男人更喜欢年轻的女人，这已经是众多周知的秘密了。但是根据婚恋网站丘比特的调查结果显示，女人会被同龄的男人吸引。而到了男人这就不同了：结果表示只要女人超过了22岁，她对于男人的吸引力就要显著下降了。

At an event in mid-August, Mr Rudder, 39, explained the results to a dumbfounded crowd. 'Women who are, say, 28, find guys who are also 28 about the most attractive. By contrast, women begin to decline in attractiveness - from the perspective of men - as soon as they hit their early twenties. 'It is kind of terrible,' he admitted. 'From the time you're 22 you'll be less hot than a 20-year-old, based on this data. So that's just a thing.'

While these status may be depressing, Mr Rudder clarifies that it doesn't mean all women over 22 should necessarily expect to be left high and dry. 'This is just measuring people's opinions, not what they actually go out and do,' he told NPR. 'What you see when you actually look at what people do, you see the realism set in. So these 40-year-old guys... the people they actually have the courage to actually go out and message are a lot older: it's 30, 35-year-old women.'

On his blog, OKData, he delves into this pattern even further, explaining that as men get older they tend to search for younger and younger women. 'The median 31-year-old guy, for example, sets his allowable match age range from 22 to 35 - nine years younger, but only four years older, than himself,' he writes. 'This skewed mindset worsens with age; the median 42-year-old will accept a woman up to 15 years younger, but no more than three years older.'

Apart from data about age, Mr Rudder's book also details a number of other fascinating ways we interact and perceive each other. 'If there's one thing I sincerely hope this book might get you to reconsider, it's what you think about yourself,' he writes in the introduction. 'Because that's what this book is really about. '
