She explains why";"Age gap and the city: why I always date (much) older men. Alice Cockerell (mid-thirties) is more likely to go searching for dates at a private members club than a night club
and to tour Christopher Wren churches rather than hang out in Broadway Market. She explains why.

11 February 2025. My mother calls me a gerontophile. This is an unkind
not to say bigoted
way of saying that I have a habit of going out with much older men. Age-gap relationships are the prejudice of the day. But thankfully London is teeming with us May-December types. Different factions of Londoners like to date out of their accepted bracket. There are the trendy types who make it look zeitgeisty and cool. Sam Taylor-Wood (57) paved the way when she married Aaron Taylor-Johnson (34)
the odds-on next Bond
in 2012
and moved him into her edgy City warehouse complete with the Pet Shop Boys’ recording studio in the basement. While no-one looks cooler pottering down Portobello Road with baby-plus-boyfriend
Oli Green (2 than Sienna Miller (43). Kate Moss (51) is said to still be reeling from her split with Nikolai Von Bismarck (3 but
it has to be said that for nine years she wasn’t seen at any party or launch without the perfect whippersnapper accessory on her arm. <p>Sienna Miller and her boyfriend OIi Green

FRAME. What tends to be less chic is when it looks like an older man is using a younger girlfriend to seem hip. Frank Skinner said that when he was dating a 20 year old
even some of the nicer women he knew either turned “disproportionately vicious” or treated him like Woody Allen. But much worse was laddish congratulations
friends “taking me to one side at a party and giving me an enthusiastic congratulatory handshake. The horror!” But there is a category of age-gap sex and the city that has got nothing to do with being cool
and that’s the one that I fit into. Though I used to go out out with a much
much older TV presenter (he was 30 years older than me) whose only waking thought was raving at Torture Gardens
on the whole my vintage lovers have acted even older than the age on their passports (blue from the first time around). This means that there are things to get used to. “Meet you at the club” means The Atheneaum not The Box
and we tend to wander around Wren churches not Broadway Market at the weekend. This is a good thing
as I’m afraid the ship of my boyfriend sporting a trendy man bun or
in fact
any hair at all
sailed decades ago. The age-gap detractors tend to spout idiotic theories like the Di Caprio Rule which holds that men don’t like dating women older than 25 as that’s the age when your prefrontal cortex (bit of the brain responsible for impulse control and decision-making) is finally formed. As Florence Pugh (29) who went out with Zach Braff (49) for 3 years pointed out
“I’ve always found it funny how I can be good enough for people to watch my work
and support my work
and pay for tickets
and I'm old enough to be an adult and pay taxes
but I'm not old enough to know who I should and should not have sex with.” Unfortunately this kind of judgement doesn’t stop even when the cortex is well and truly formed (not to say atrophying)
the implication seems to be that if you are not born around the same time how can you have anything meaningful in common. One or other of you is being shallow. Or has Daddy Issues. Probably both. It’s certainly true that my (older) boyfriend has never sweatily humped a speaker at Fabric
but I’m not sure how much that matters.
