You're right in saying that many girls like older guys just because of a simple attraction. But, other girls like older guys because they have never felt love and affection from a man. They crave an older masculine presence.

So if a girl has had a good relationship with her dad she will no longer crave love and affection from a man?

You are putting words in my mouth.
Maybe I made a logical mis-step? When you said "But, some girls like older guys because they have never felt love and affection from a man" I look to find meaning in the statement, and unless the converse is a negative then there is no meaning. Unless if the girls having had love and affection from their father when young would negatively affect their seeking of love and affection from older men when old, or at least affect it so that there is a relative difference, then it doesn't mean anything to say that not having love and affection when young will make you seek it out more (from older men) when older.
And where are you getting this correlation from anyway? Just making it up, out of intuitition? Because it sounds right? Because you've heard that idea bandied about? "Everybody" "knows" that?
It doesn't sound right to me and I don't share your intuition and my experiences lead me to different conclusions. My experiences show me that women get aroused for paternal figures. Full stop. I see no correlation nor can I imagine why there would be one with if the girl lacked affection from her father or not. In fact the data shows that women who were neglected tend to have less interest in intimacy, not more; they are well known to tend to get intimacy avoidance issues. And the erotic-paternal connection is extremely intimate. Extremely intimate.
People who were neglected when young do not seek out that connection when older. That's not what the very extensive data shows. It shows exactly the opposite. Neglect leads to a generalized avoidance of intimacy and an unwillingness to open in trust and affection.
Now, they may have issues and deficits arising from neglect, but attraction and sexual attraction to a father figure is not one of them, as far as all my experience and understanding tells me. And I have extensive experience with playing Daddy for a large number of all manner of women.
The orphan that I live with now was at the extreme tail end of the curve of being the LEAST interested in playing daughter. Exactly opposite of your premise. And girls who have described and displayed close and warm relations to their fathers have been way into playing daughter. Extremely into it.
The only daddy issue that I know of is the issue of guys who don't grok what the daddy dynamic is. That is a big issue, because it means that they are dissowning a hugely powerful portion of their male sexuality.
