I don't know about that, man. I think it's just men over 35 or so no matter what. I'm 41 with no kids and love dad jokes, not to try and rekindle the feeling of feedback from a 4 year-old since I haven't regularly interacted with 4 year-olds since I was a 4 year-old myself.

I'm now at the age where puns are dad jokes because it's my dad laughing to them. It was pretty satisfaying few days ago when he was yelling "vos gueules" (shut up) at birds, to which I said "That why they're called Vogel in German", and made him laugh out loud.
I'm 30 and I love dad jokes. And I hate them at the exact same time. Like I'll hate that the person said it and want to bop them over the head, but I will also chuckle or smile at the bad joke.

I love getting that same sort of pained but happy feedback from others which is why I will tell them myself.

I'm 28 and have loved puns about as long as I can remember. No plans to have kids, but it turns out you can get almost anyone to groan, even adults!
