Gerontophilia is a sexual attraction to seniors, typically persons above the age of 60. This is the last of the seven chronophilias, being preceded only by mesophilia.

A journal article hypothesised that gerontophilia makes up for an extremely small portion of the population, in combination with nepiophilia. Due to most instances of gerontophilic sexual contact being legal and consensual, there is little research on the subject.[1]
