old goat

Lecherous elderly man

Old goat is a mildly disparaging term for an older man, especially one perceived as stubborn, lecherous, or set in his ways.

It often carries affectionate undertones when used familiarly: The old goat still flirts with every waitress.

Sometimes self-applied with rueful humor: I'm too much of an old goat to change now.
