I was seriously getting a bit down about some of these 'Debbie Downer' posters about how only under 40 women are of good quality. SOOOoooo, I did what it is that is therapeutic and went on the hunt (no not for shoes...) for the best argument the contrary.

 

...And I found it, YEAH! :D:D

 

I can relate to how hard these women work to stay in-shape (I don't work THAT hard but I do put in great effort*) and I wanted to reaffirm to ALL the amazing and beautiful and intelligent women on LS (Married or not*) that this year, if you are in your 40's (42 especially) then you are the most coveted age of 2014 by both MEN and women* :love:

whoa! you actually believed younger women are better??? Bunch of BS... that is why i waited till I was 30 to allow for a relationship. I found 40 to be the sweetspot for most women, in removing themselves from BS that had been plagued with.

:love: Your my new favorite poster*

 

I just wanted to brighten my OWN day with this (and maybe a slight hair toss at the other threads running about bah humbug older women blah blah LOL*) :D

 

But to each his or Her own I like pretty much everyone on LS regardless of hangups... God knows I've got them :o

In Praise of Older Women

 

Ladies,

 

As I grow in age, I value women who are over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

 

A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.

 

If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And it's usually something more interesting.

 

A woman over 40 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 40 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.

 

Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it...

 

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

 

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40. They always know.

 

A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women or drag queens.

 

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.

 

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off you are a jerk if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her....

 

Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not always reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman of 40+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.

 

Ladies, I apologize for all of us.

AND THE ORIGINAL PIECE BY FRANK KAISER

 

One of the perks of dufferdom is an increased capacity to appreciate people. Friends. Spouses. And, for me, women. All women.

 

When I was 20, I had eyes only for girls my age. Any woman over 30 was ancient, over 40 invisible. Today, at 65, I still appreciate the 20-year-old for her youthful looks, vigor, and (occasional) sweet innocence. But I equally enjoy women of my own age and beyond, and every age in between. I’ve learned that each has its own special wonders, attractions, magic and beauty.

 

As I grow in age, I value older women most of all. Here are just a few of the reasons senior men sing the praises of older women:

 

An older woman will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" An older woman doesn't care what you think.

 

An older woman knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants, and from whom. By the age of 50, few women are wishy-washy. About anything. Thank God!

 

An older woman looks great wearing bright red lipstick even in glaring sunlight. This is not true of younger women or drag queens.

 

And yes, once you get past a wrinkle or two, an older woman is far sexier than her younger counterpart!

 

Her libido’s stronger.

 

Her fear of pregnancy gone.

 

Her appreciation of experienced lovemaking is honed and reciprocal.

 

And she's lived long enough to know how to please a man in ways her daughter could never dream of. (Young men, you have something to look forward to!)

 

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off that you are a jerk if you're acting like one. A young woman will say nothing, caring what you might think of her. An older woman doesn't give a damn.

 

An older, single woman usually has had her fill of "meaningful relationships" and "commitment." Can't relate? Can't commit? She could care less. The last thing she needs in her life is another dopey, clingy, whiny, dependent lover!

 

Older women are dignified. They seldom contemplate having a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.

 

Most older women cook well. They care about cleanliness. They're generous with praise, often undeserved.

 

An older woman has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A young woman with a man often will ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. The older woman couldn’t care less.

 

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to an older woman. They always just know.

 

Yes, we geezers praise older women for a multitude of reasons. These are but a few. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coifed babe of 70 there's a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.

 

Ladies, I apologize for us. That men are genetically inferior is no secret. Count your blessings that we die off at a far younger age, leaving you the best part of your lives to enjoy and appreciate the exquisite woman you've become. Without the distraction of some demanding old fart clinging and whining his way into your serenity.

I am sure you do, and so do I. However, try to put that aside for a second and look deep inside

I am only 38, but I already feel like a lot of those are true for me. I've been with my husband since I was 15. With all of this experience behind me now, I look back and feel sorry for my husband getting a BJ from me twenty years ago. I had NO clue what I was doing. He took it like a champ, though:love:

Quiet storm, you get web kudos for mastering the art of a B/J for Your H. It is a 'learned' art I do agree :D

 

We are not 'next generation' women. We are are not 'past generation' women. We are 'Generation Now' women!

This doesn't change the fact that men wanting children would be ill-advised in going for a woman this old.

 

No amount of praise will change biology (or the extent of our current technology).

I think all women should be appreciated no matter the age....i feel all women need to be shown respect, compassion appreciation and understanding ..yougn and old alike...not one is better than the other.......none of that respect compassion appreciation or understanding should depend on their age and age shouldn't be a factor for anything other than to wish a woman happy birthday.....go the sisterhood......deb

That's cool.

 

One of the best parts of being a 40 year old woman for me is having my baby years in the past. I wouldn't be compatible with a man who wanted to have babies, oh hell no.

 

It's a wonderful time of life, with my kids still home but out of the demanding ages, time for myself, time for my husband, and a sexual peak thrown in just for good measure :bunny:

This is it absolutely and it's sad that some bitter boys are already segregating based on a woman's body due to age etc...

Ergo this thread. I'm not letting em' place the wedge between us based on their libidos and quasi self entitlement/s... :D

So when I turn 40, I'm Ready*

thats what i feel articles like this do...... base our looks and age on the ability to be appreciated by a man.....younger women being more insecure and needy where as an older woman doesnt care or "could not care less"

 

part of being a woman is our capacity to care, to be in tune with others, to care how others feel...and that capacity is not diminished to a relationship with a man or for a man to find us to be found desirable enough to chase us....just games in my opinion.......

 

 

women at their core ...at heart level...all women care(whether they choose to show it or not, recognise it or not)..how they are perceived to be.........deb

Wha??? OMG! Now I am in the Favorite Zone... The endless calling at the wee hours of the night, not to mention running about trying to get hard to get tix at a moments notice, and then there is your list of old favorites pointing fingers say'n "No, I'm her favorite!" i've been zoned before, and never again! mwhahahahahahaaa!!!

 

 

Just turn your confidence inward and enjoy being something many hope to be when they grow up. hehehehehehe!

When I ended up back on the market at 40, I was absolutely petrified. I was terrified at the thought that (any) men wouldn't so much as look in my direction never mind date me or have sex with me. I thought it was all over for me. I mean, how could I possibly compete with a twenty-something year old?

 

I'm happy to say that I have NEVER felt more desired, more confident and more sexy in my life (and I was smokin' hot in my twenties if I do say so myself)! It's more than just the validation from men (which certainly helps), it's about reaching that point in my life where I finally feel comfortable in my skin and loving the WHOLE person I've become as a result of all my experiences, both good and bad. That kind of awareness and the peace that comes with it acts like a beacon for men. Ultimately, it's the thing that makes older women infinitely more attractive.

 

In praise of older women indeed! :)
