To start, I'm not certain as I'm also gay and like my women more womanly than youthful. But I think a part of it is that yourhfulness is sexually prized fo the point you could call it fetishized in our society, especially in women. The rich, famous, and powerful therefore have access to a lot of young women in the 18-20something range. And I think a decent chunk of them wind up in groups of peers pursuing these young women and start pushing the age down bit by bit. And there's the taboo and boundary pushing.

I wouldn't be surprised if they found 14 year olds more exciting because it's wrong and because they can. Combes, Trump, epstein, and the like have always struck me as similar to those people who can't stop cheating but would never open their relationship unless their partner doesn't want it. The sort who'd beat their partner but only without consent. They need to push boundaries and take more than they give. Sexually violating people who are barely post pubescent is just a taboo that they've eased their way into breaking.
