It'd be sexier if metal

As you stated OP, having prime cards shows you are financially put. I would say that it won't necessarily automatically make you attractive (we've had some rough looking women come in with AMEX & Freedom cards) that I wouldn't take a second look at in my work place. I'll remember them because their cards had dirt and goo accumulating around the numbers, hahaha. 

I did, however, have this one experience at American Eagle the day right after I got my AMEX PRG (Gold card) and the gentleman behind the counter saw me whip it out and was definitely doing some hardcore flirting. I played along and got a 35% off coupon for next time, hehe.

Why am I covering my cards or keep them as close to me as possible when I use them? Maybe to protect myself from fraudsters or potential crooks? All those years I could have just toss and show my fancy cards around and the ladies would be stalking me all the time *doh*

I haven't had my Chase Freedom card very long, but I used it recently at Belk and the female cashier looked at it and looked at me and was noticeably a lot more chatty and flirty when I whipped it out. The Chase Freedom isn't really that exclusive of a card, but there are probably not that many males in their early 20s that have the Freedom card. I don't know if the card made me more attractive as it was that the card gave off the impression of financial stability, which itself can be attractive. Little did she know she was very much barking up the wrong tree...

I'm sure there are plenty.

I decided to put that to the test and went to Creditkarma to see what it said about the median age of Chase Freedom cardholders. I am going to have to stand by my original statement. It is clear that the median age skews heavily towards the 25-34 range (55% of cardholders in fact), but not nearly as many people born in the 90s who are 18 or older have the Freedom card. In fact, 18-24 wasn't even the second most popular demographic. Of course, there are still millions of cardholders in the early 20s that have the Chase Freedom card because it is so popular (and there are definitely a disproportionate number of young people who have the card on myFICO, but myFICO members are a far cry from being representative of the general population). I'm talking percentages here more than anything.
