Generally speaking around equal age up to the man being slightly older leads to the most stable long term relationships. So based on that I’d say maybe her age -2 up to her age +5. But obviously there are a lot of other things more important for compatibility than age.

What exactly do you mean by "target"..?

Men in their late twenties. 80% of married couples are 0-5 years apart. Big age gaps ups your divorce risk.

If she's late 20s, then someone in their late 20s? Da fuk?

Have you learned nothing from red pill? Late 20s is too old.

A man at least in his 60s. He's sure to have all his stats maxed.

Why do you care?

I’ll answer this earnestly, though I would recommend not thinking of dating as “targeting”.

a majority of married couples are within 2-3 years of one another, age wise (something like 65%). Like 87% of couples are within 7 years of each other. <6% of couples have a 10+ year age gap. The older people marry, the more likely they are to have a bigger age gap.
Half your age plus 7 is actually a good rule of thumb. It’s a good range that’s not too limiting, and tends to reflect an age you’d find attractive and can still relate to. If you’re a 28 year old woman, you’d want to be with a guy 42 or younger… I’d say that’s fair.
I’m less concerned about age and moreso about power imbalance. IMO, after age 25, I don’t think there’s automatically a power imbalance built in. As long as you meet one another in “neutral territory” where you’re both equals (ex. Meeting at a concert or party, NOT because they were your boss, landlord, employee, etc), I think it’s fair game.
Generally speaking, most 3rd spaces or other places people hang out with reflect their age and life stage, and the people they meet romantically tend to reflect that. For example, at 28, the bars I liked to go to didn’t have a whole lot of 21-25 year olds. They also didn’t attract much of the over 40 crowd. The age ranges of the people I met reflected that.
30 year old currently in a serious relationship with a 39 year old, met at 29. I couldn’t tell how old he was when I met him, he looks great and liked the same stuff. The only times I’m reminded of his age are his birthday, and when people ask. He’s never made it a thing or thought he was “above” me due to our age gap. It’s a bigger age gap than most friends in my social circle, but they all met their partners when they were younger (college, etc). I don’t think we would’ve gotten together if we were 22 and 31, but we’re in the same life stage now so it works well. Also, a lot of the late 20s/early 30s guys I’d come across were just less ready for serious relationships or marriage the way I was… will def say that it feels like guys 35+ feel light years more marriage/relationship ready than 30 year old guys. 35-40 is a great age for men, they don’t see themselves as old, have great energy and tend to take great care of themselves. Also, they always have great taste in TV and music (if you like Blink-182, this is the right age demo to date lol)

That answer's going to depend on the individual woman. I've always had a thing for older guys -- because I was never my own age mentally, I was raised around adults and always related to adults. So my age range is somewhere around 10-15 years older, and it always has been -- for men.

For everyone else, it's whoever makes me happy. :)

Anyone over 25 shouldn't date under 25, and by the rule of "half your age, plus 7", 46 would be her top range, if she was 29.

So, for a 29 year old, their range should be about 25 - 46 in a partner.
