Study reveals women are not sexually attracted to men who are in their late 30's.

It is a well established theory that men and women look for partners whom they mostly finds physically appealing and attractive regardless of age differences between them. Past studies have also confirmed that women prefer older men who are more successful, mature and established than younger men. A recent survey by the Crown Clinic, a premier hair transplant clinic in Manchester, found many women are less allured by older men who are nearing 40. The aging symptoms like graying hair, receding hairline, double chin and bad teeth that start appearing when men reach 39 make women look at them as father figures than sex symbols, reports the Free Press Journal.

The results also suggests over 52 percent of the participants agreed that men begin losing their desirability after turning 40. However, the attitudes of the respondents were not solely influenced by aging factors. Around six out of every ten surveyed women felt men who are in late 30's are 'attached to the age and are not worth approaching', reports the Daily Mail.

This means even the most sought after celebrities like George Clooney and Richard Gene have become sexually invisible and no longer eyed by younger women. Many men undergo invasive cosmetic treatments and surgeries to conceal their real age and look decades younger.

"Turning 40 is key turning point and it is the most popular age for men to seek a hair transplant. You only have to look at Robbie Williams to see how true that is. He turned 40 in February and admitted having a transplant to fill out his temples where he had started to lose his hair. He clearly didn't want to become 'The Invisible Man',"said a spokesperson from the Clinic, reports the Daily Mail.
