You have your college age guys, guys in their mid and late 20s, and then you have guys in their early to mid 30s.
I don't find anything wrong with this at all, no one should stop partying because they get older, unless they WANT to...but, the fact that there's a decent amount of "older" guys in clubs, yet the presence of "older" women in clubs is almost non-existant...really catches my attention.

As someone who remembers such guys from her nights at some clubs on Sunset Blvd in college, here's my take. A lot of those single 30-something guys aren't ready to grow up and settle down, so they go to the clubs to prowl for sweet young thangs, thinking for some reason that those girls will be interested in them. The women in their age group have moved on to serious relationships or marriage with men that ARE ready to grow up, so now these guys are alone. Sad thing is they don't realize how silly and immature they look.
ETA: Oh, and when we went to clubs in college, it was usually to dance and flirt with boys from UCLA and USC...not upper 30s-mid-40s divorced lawyers.
