I’m a woman in my 20s considering joining. I learned from reading the questions that there are men in their 60s at the club too—is that true? I’m surprised.

Maezawa from the CEO’s Office here, answering your questions as well. > Can I specify an age range for the men I’m introduced to? Yes, you can. Some women do set age limits, so I think you can feel reassured. > Ideally, I’m personally thinking somewhere from the 30s to 40s, or perhaps up to the early 50s if they look like they’re in their 40s… In that case, I don’t think you need the “ideally” part. You would probably just write: “Men up to their early 50s.” You might be wondering, “But what about looking like they’re in their 40s?” The thing is, there’s no point in setting a restriction based on appearance, since you can simply meet the man for a first meal and decide then. For example, even with Dating Type C, the original terms stated that there was about a 50% chance of proceeding to an adult relationship. (The 50% wording is no longer shown, but the meaning is the same.) So if you meet him and feel that he doesn’t look like he’s in his 40s or younger, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having dinner only and declining anything further. In fact, you could even consider yourself the one who was let down after planning to pursue an adult relationship after dinner, only to find that it wasn’t possible. You’d almost be justified in asking the club, “Why did you introduce me to a man like this?” (Though you shouldn’t actually say that.) Men, for their part, are supposed to make an effort during the meal to get you to like them so things don’t end up that way. (Although, in reality, more men don’t make much effort than do, haha.) > Aren’t there many younger men? If men in their early 50s and younger are acceptable, there are actually quite a few. I don’t think you need to worry. If you limit it to men in their 40s or younger, the number will drop, but there are men in their 30s too, so I think you have a chance.

I’m a lost man in my 60s. The women I’ve met always tell me, “You don’t look 60 at all!” Why not give it a try and meet an older man before ruling it out?

I’m Dai, a male member. There are younger men as well. You can set an age limit, but the stricter you make it, the fewer offers you’ll receive. I feel there’s a big difference between including men in their 50s and excluding them.

I’m Paper Airplane, a male member. Since both men and women are used to being told, as a matter of politeness, that they look 10–15 years younger than their actual age, I think setting stricter age limits—such as up to the 30s or around 45—would lead to more offers from younger men. Many women don’t set any age limit, but I think that can also discourage younger men from making offers.
