Men in Their Fifties Who Are Looking for a Long-Term

Men in their fifties who are looking for a long-term mate prefer women in their thirties. Men's preferences for short-term mates, however, remain for women at the age of peak fertility. Why might this be?

A) Older men may have difficulty attracting dramatically younger women as long-term mates.
B) Older men are less interested in mates who are similar or compatible.
C) Older men are generally lower in status than young men.
D) Modern long-term mating is different from ancestral long-term mating; it requires less compatibility.
