I'm confused. are women telling the truth or bluffing?

women in their late 20s and older(and even some women in their early and mid 20s) say that they are more ually attracted to guys in their late 20s and 30s. but they always indicate otherwise. when women are asked what would flatter them more, a boy in his teens or early 20s telling them they're pretty, or a guy their age or older telling them they're pretty, most of them seem to be more flattered by the younger boy. if the older guys are really more attractive, then why are they more flattered by the younger boy? are women really consider guys in their late 20s and older more attractive or are they really most attracted to high school and college boys? be honest.
