I've always liked older men. I started dated men 20 years older than me when I was 20. I am 35 and I still like men 10-20 yrs older...that being said you are 16 so maybe wait until you are an adult to start dating adults for both your sakes.
And for the record...I think men of my generation are jackasses so I don't have dad issues I have I wanna find someone more like my dad issues...
