Sorry meself, but that is your (and maybe others) interpretation, not mine.
As to 'stands to reason' - here is a true story.
Whilst overseeing divers installing a new jetty at a chemical complex I routinely visited their canteen cabin to review workloads. Everyday I would see on a table a 'mens' magazine called 'Over Fifties - the Mature woman'. As the divers were all young I asked who they belonged to. The youngest lad (about 22 yrs old) owned up. Who wants to look at naked women over 50 I said. When my 'pal' (their boss) told my wife I was in serious trouble. My wife (and I) were both early fifties.

Young men can hit on older women as young women can hit on older men.

(Interesting about BEW and CotC if you are into country music & Gatlin Brothers stuff. BEW wrote some of the best songs to come out of America IMO)
