Sounds like me...



I'd love a pair of 20 year olds, but there is nothing wrong with a sexy 40 year old!

If you look anything like your avatar, I doubt it.

When I say good looking, I mean serious model material. So good that most women don't even bother because they're intimidated.

You strike me as the type who looks similar to your avatar. Car salesman looking or something of that sort.


Careful you don't drown in a pool staring at your reflection.
Narcissus meet Gatsby.
 
Gatsby: Suggestions for a poll:

Chances that Gatsby will ever touch a woman of any age:

Option 1: 0%............. Almost a certainty.
Option 2: 1 - 24%.......Assuming there is a field trip to the morgue in his future.
Option 3: 25 - 49%.....Requires a fifth of tequila, a woman who doesn't speak English, and probably a few Ben Franklins.
Option 4: 50 - 74%.....Requires "Date rape" or Kentucky.
Option 5: 75 - 99%.....Requires him winning the lottery at the exact moment he enters the Carolina Panther's Cheerleader locker room.
Option 6: 100%..........Voter obviously counted his birthing.

I'd prefer not. I wanted the people who think older women are sexy to feel a bit of foolishness when voting, so I forced them to adopt the opinion that Bea Arthur is "hawt."

I remember a few lines from a television show years ago...

"Why do you want grapejuice when you can have wine?"

"Because alcohol makes me vomit!"

Amen Gatsby, finally telling the truth!

Women in their 30's and past can still retain their beauty, but in NO way are any of them "sexy" or retain any sex appeal. Their wrinkly skin, deflated bodies (look at the recent Madonna video- her legs are decent but her midsection is paunchy and she moves without any spring or energy, just like a lotof middle age women), girthy bottoms from childbearing- just blech.:disgust:

Alot of them, unfortunately, are still horny as hell-apparently the sex drive doesn't go away.😱

Is it any wonder that men with any semblance of money or power will go for the younger ladies?

And is it any wonder that the younger guys who get "Cougared" by the older women have one hell of a good time? 😛

To claim that women cannot be "sexy" or "have no sex appeal" after 30 is just pure, unadulterated, bull****.

- M4H

They may "look" sexy, esp. with makeup and if they workout and eat right.
But if you look closer, it's a sad sight, a disaster. Plus, their skin loses any "bounce" or firmness- it may look good but it feels gooshy and used, major turnoff.

Don't be fooled- get em young while they still look good in their lowrisers.😉
Yeah like any girl who actually looks good in lowrisers (far and few between at any age) would give you or Gatsby a second look let alone let you touch her.

Heh....you've got a lot to learn kid. Intelligence has nothing to do with having children. It might deal with desire and responsibility but to say that someone who is 22 with a child is less intelligent than someone who doesn't have a child.....that's total BS. I would have to say that someone who would make such a statement as that would be the one who needed the intelligence test. If you're single, perhaps there is a reason for it.....

Obviously you know nothing about social issues.

It's a common fact that having children at a young age and having children out of wedlock correlate heavily with intelligence, educational background, drug use, and a number of other factors.

Unless you're one of those people who "knows a girl" and uses that to assume about the majority.

Wow. First, I want to address a few things in this thread.

#1 - my wife isn't 30 yet, and imho MILF.

#2 - Where the hell do you get off making such a chauvinistic statement? We had our first child when I was 22 and she was 23. It was planned. Is that a sign of unintelligence? My son happens to be one of the brightest and most intelligent children in his grade, so much so that public school wasn't even a challenge for him. My two daughters are equally as intelligent and creative, though not in school yet, so there's no measure of performance to be had yet.

#3 - You seem to have a problem with women in general. First off, you say that older women are unattractive. Then as you move further down, you seem to berate younger women with your statements of unintelligence, etc. My suggestion to you, just come out of the closet already and leave your inadequacies behind.

I sincerely hope you grow up soon and learn to appreciate women for who they are, rather than the shallow self-centered view that you have. Otherwise you my friend will either be living a life of solitude (which may be for you, at this point I suggest sparing any women from you), or you'll be heading down the road of shallow relationships that you will desperately try to make it through only to ultimately end up in divorce. And divorce, my friend, is where the unintelligence, drug use and social deviance is.

Your further opinions are henceforth logged in the I don't give a fvck file.

You see them on television, but please realize, they are simply doused in make up and other cosmetic equipment. They do not look that good in real life.

Give it a few years junior. They all look better the older you get.

That's because your standards go down because your own looks will deteriorate. Most guys the same age as these Desperate Housewives women are fat, balding, have little money, little self confidence, and are so deprived of attention from an attractive women, they'll get turned on by anything that isn't sagging to the wasteline.

Since I was born with natural good looks, thick hair, and am on the track to financial success, and take great care of my self by not drinking, smoking, doing drugs, or gaining unneeded weight, I have a longer shelf life and I will not lower my standards as I get older.


Are you Brad Pitt?
 
Everyone knows that the peak male's sexual drive is around 17-25 years and the woman's is around 34-42ish.

From both perspective's it should seem natural to have great sex when they are put together, believe me; I know

me = 25
so = 35

And LOVING IT!!!
 
If everything falls apart at 30, somebody better tell my wife and all the guys that pay to see her topless, because they apparently don't know this rule. My wife is one of the top dancers (by earnings) at one the top upscale clubs in Minneapolis. Young guys spend assloads of money on her, and many of them guess she's in her early 20s. So much for stupid generalizations. :roll:

Does anyone know what's with this new wave of overly sexualized middle aged women on television? (Desparate Housewives, Sex In The City, etc)

Gatsby cannot stand it.

Women 10 years my senior are making Gatsby sick....sick...sick all over.

You see them on television, but please realize, they are simply doused in make up and other cosmetic equipment. They do not look that good in real life.

I pull up Amazon.com (Books), and I see these books written by psuedo-celebrities such as Kim Cattrall. 200 years prior, a woman that age would be near grandparent age.

What happened to the Golden Girl days when old women wore bright colored sweatsuits and entertained audiences by making sarcastic quips? Who decided to turn up the sexualization by about 1000%?

Oh please, when will the madness end?

And please, no "older women are best because they have experience" posts. If that's true, I want to see you say that about Bea Arthur, and then we'll talk. If you're over 30, it becomes less about "sexy" and more about "classy." A 40 year old trying to be sexy is just disturbing.


:thumbsup:

Longoria is the only one that is hot.

However, she turned 30 this year, so her days are numbered. Then it's more about make up and camera effects than natural beauty.

take a look at Rene Russo

No, but it would be funny to see you without any teeth.

Edit: Not to mention that a classy, sophisticated person would speak proper English. You may choose either of the following:

1) That's neither classy nor sophisticated.

2) That's not classy or sophisticated.

Your butchery of the English language leads me to believe that you wouldn't know a classy, sophisticated woman if she beat you with a baseball bat.

ad hominem

Considering that this thread was started so the OP could vent his sexual frustrations by proclaiming that a certain group was not classy or sophisticated, it seems only fitting to show how he is neither, and therefore unqualified to comment on such.

But that point seems to have flown straight over your addled head.

How's that for an ad hominem, bitch?

You'll have to do more than cast doubt upon the credibility of others in order to win logical arguments. What if I were to tell you, for example, that JFK was a great president? My own status as one who has never travelled to Washington, one who was born decades later, and one who has ever held a political office has nothing to do with the credibility of the aforementioned statement. Additionally, my lack of presidential credibility does not immediately exclude the possibility that I might know what I'm talking about when I say that LBJ was a lackluster president. Likewise, one who is neither classy nor sophisticated should not be immediately ignored regarding comments of sophistication or class.

...Most women with children at my age had them accidentally (not true in the past, but is true today), which indicates a lower than average intelligence...
And yet you watch "Desparate Housewives" and "Sex In The City". :roll:

I don't watch the shows, I just "hear" about them. I know what they're about. I see the advertisements for them. It's about middle aged women "whore-in-it-up."

1. Don't judge a book by its cover.
2. Don't trust the popular opinion.
3. Nobody said you had to pay any heed.
4. The American melting pot is full of garbage worth bitching about.

Heather Locklear = Timeless beauty

In her latest movie they had to use make up to age her so we would believe she could be Hiliary Duff's mother.

Ironically, the aging make up probably was used to cover up the original "younger" make up.
 
People like the OP are just attention seeking gays. They're just waiting for all the other fruits to PM them after seeing this thread. Pay no mind. It's so obvious. Any one who thinks beautiful women are unattractive is obviously a fruit looking for other fruits.
