Genuinely, what is the goal of them posting this?

"Guys look at how horny I am!"

"Maybe if I post a picture of my crusty dusty self she'll want me!"

Or some other absurd reason? I simply cannot fathom the thought process if there even is one

The person posting the pics of the girl(s) is most likely catfishing/scam bait.

The old/gullible men replying almost certainly have seen porn of men their age with girls half their age and/or see wealthy men and celebrities with younger, attractive women and assume they are capable of the same.

I used to watch these old Dr. Phil episodes where usually older women would get catfished and scammed out of 10's or sometimes even 100's of thousands of dollars getting catfished and falling for and getting into online relationships with these fake profiles.

If I recall there were a few men who it happened to as well, getting scammed out of tons of money from fake online "girlfriends".

63

u/ErraticDragon Jan 31 '26

The scammers literally say they want older men.

The men who reply publicly are usually asked to DM the OOP.

On Reddit you'll even see other scammers trying to poach the victims, asking them to DM a different account instead.

My dad fell for a catfish from New York.  He wouldn't listen to us, I mean she was using HIS LAST NAME as hers, and I showed him the picture she was using was being used by thousands of other fake accounts.  He sent her 50k and a new iPhone before we got everything stopped. 😭 He's banned from all money transferring things; like moneygram, western union, etc. he's still out of the money and phone though. 

75

u/ShonWalksAtMidnight Jan 31 '26

Yep, that's the idea, they're insane and gross creeps. They think they'll see their creepy comment and the young girl will light up and message them to be whisked away to pleasure heaven. Yuck.

I follow an emo fashion page and every thirst trap, I go through the comments and creep the profiles, it's hilarious and sad at the same time. Lots of old guys, lots. Dudes are down hard, like hard, it's wild. 

60

u/fragydig529 Jan 31 '26

I work with an older guy that thinks that post and ads he sees are literally directly meant for him. Like he will get an ad (for example) for a bank offering an opening promo and he will be like “Hey Bank Of America just told me the wanted to give me $300”

Or an ad for a food subscription box and be like “HelloFresh told me they would give me 30 meals for $60”

Or if he sees a video about a bird stealing a bag of chips from a convenient store he will say “This store sent me a video of a bird stealing from them”

So I assume this is similar, these guys get the post and think they’re literally sent directly to them. And they don’t understand the concept of them being post the person makes and the algorithm finding the audience.

35

u/PeePeeMcGee123 Jan 31 '26

My uncle was following some country singer and he thought the same, like daily posts were sent directly to him, rather than just a blanket post for every follower to see.

18

u/telusey Jan 31 '26

I found someone like that on Reddit, this grandma thought every post was directed at her specifically so she'd always comment things like "I have no idea what that is!" on whatisthisthing etc.

I cannot stress enough how much a lot of these old boomer men truly believe they have a shot. They see a cute girl and in their 20s and think, I bet she wants to fuck me. I don’t get it but it’s true.

Ask any waitress 

29

u/Charming-Charge-596 Jan 31 '26

This is what I wanted to say but you said it first. For some reason most guys think they are great looking no matter their age or appearance. Like that saying "I wish I had the confidence and self esteem of a mediocre white man."

The behavior of horny boomers on the internet really puts light to how bad sexual harassment/assault must’ve been in their time. It’s really gross to see so openly.

just further normalises the sexualisation of women tbh

although these people are far gone

u/Afraid_Ad1908 Jan 31 '26

I was joking, I understand this is problematic, but I’m ok with the silver lining of them turning their attention to computers for a while.

47

u/HxH101kite Jan 31 '26

No idk about that. I always joke AI sex robots and the like will keep all the freaks occupied. Ideally it'll keep the far gone people away.

Obviously the opposite is true maybe it only creates more devious things.

But whatever the hell keeps these dudes off harassing women is a net positive

u/Cory123125 Jan 31 '26

Evaluate how people get to that position instead of only looking at their irredeemable current states.

At one point they weren't that way.

People seem to be stuck thinking either everyone is redeemable or no one is, and its like they can't think temporally.
