    I'd say 21-35.

    I usually find older men attractive though.

    Re: What's the youngest and oldest you'd date?
    I don't really like to say really... if I met someone who I really liked, got on with and fell for, and then found their age out (if that were to happen) the age gap would have to be massive. For example, a couple of my brother's friends who are sixteen and seventeen like me (or so he tells me), and though I wouldn't go with them normally, if one of them started talking to me and was really interesting, could hold a proper conversation, had a mature sense of humour, and something happened, I wouldn't let the fact that she's that much younger stop something from happening should it happen... this side of the age of consent of course. But when I'm looking, I'd normally consider eighteen or nineteen my lower limit. As for upper... that's a good one. My only girlfriend to date was five years older than me, I'd probably consider between that and ten years to be my upper limit to be honest. The main issue here would be that I want to eventually kids, so obviously I'd rather be with someone who's prepared to do that with me.

    Tl;dr:
    18/19 normally, 16 absolute lowest.
    ~30 highest.

    I'm 22.

    21 - most women under 18 seem to be really immature. it's not true that women mature mentally at a younger age.

    My oldest is probably 28-29.

    Youngest. 16
    Oldest. 23/24

    Not that I like to put a limit on these things but I find I have little in common with people older than 23, also, having young parents makes it a little weird if they're much older than me.

    Female: 18

    Youngest: Probably up to six months younger, still in my year group.

    Oldest: As long as they don't get mistaken for my father, I'm game

    Though, I've dated a 31 year old and probably could have found a 16 year old who was more mature. Age isn't too important, it's all about compatibility.
