Hi gennywalt,
I agree when it comes to it being intriguing and the attractiveness. I don't believe its because they are a more secure option, I just think some guys like women who are more mature as a partner due to they know what they want in life, some younger girls are definitely mature for there age, however most of them aren't.
I think that some young guys who are driven with work/life and know what they want and which direction they are heading in, a woman that is on the same level as them is the way to go, sometimes that's more mature women. (I am speaking from experience here to). Where some, not all younger women want to continue partying or travelling.
