He's probably on a campus network that blocks porn sites, and that's the best he can find.

Well good, at the rate I'm going, my first time might be with someone of that age. What better way to start than on top?









Yes, pun intended.

Dove gives away a lot of good free samples.

Yep. Well said.

I have a lot of respect for Dove's latest ad campaign and the models who are featured in it. They are REAL women, not the airbrushed, anorexic 12 year old models you guys hold up as an unrealistic ideal of women.

Not everyone is put on Earth to turn YOU on Citrix.

2nd that... they're here for me.

The marketing people for Dove are running a brilliant (but hypocritical) campaign.

I didn't like the ad when I first saw it either.. but then I thought about it,a healthy 50 yr old woman can probably expect to live another 30-35 yrs.. that's a lot of good years and a long,long time to have to walk around being treated like crap and feeling like crap simply because she's aging.

There's a beauty in every season... even in the autum of our lives,if you are lucky you'll live long enough to see it.

I wonder how many guys here would want for their mothers or wives to spernd 30 yrs or so praying to die simply because they've grown old and people think they look "ewwwww"

I dont want to come off as knowing what women know/think (god knows I dont) but that seems to be a confidence issue. Just this week I was told to burn in hell (in a non-joking manner), I just laughed and moved on. Very common for me to hear such things.

Dove may be setting the standards of beauty closer to reality rather than the fantasies that have filled popular culture for so long (and for this, I applaud them) but they are still trying to sell "beauty" products by claiming directly or indirectly that you need them to look better. And they target women specifically, knowing that the culture will sustain this "women need to be physically attractive" mentality that has been set in our society for so long.

Inner beauty and even natural, physical beauty > clever marketing campaign

EDIT: I wouldn't be surprised if they started to target older men in their "real beauty" campaign, eventually.

Dunno... seems to me that their campaign is that EVERY woman is beautiful, no matter what their age, weight or body shape. And that EVERY woman deserves to feel as good about themselves as possible.

I don't know if they are trying to sell conventional 'beauty' or selling products to allow all women to redefine what 'beauty' is.

One of my pet peeves has been the practice of using 22 yr old models to sell anti-aging products or like some lines using glamous older actresses to push anti-aging products... but those actresses's have had a few nips and tucks and also rely on botox and injectable fillers..things that the average woman can't afford.

As to the products themselves,not only don't most of them not work but they are far spendier than some things that do work in terms of good skincare.look in stores like wagreen's and CVS some of this stuff goes $30 for a small bottle or jar,department store lines sell for $100 and up.

Many boomer aged women are well off fiscally and Dove is hoping to snag some of that money away from designer skincare lines.

Go to the website and see the reactions, and message board.

There are some real uptight women out there, but most seem to appreciate what Dove is doing.

Well spotted :thumbsup: A lot of organizations and companies are trying to get in on the boomer rush, as you can tell by the many (annoying) Ameriprise commercials, as well as others.

A lot of us are more than a little sick of having anti-aging products pushed at us by 25 yr old models.The insult to our intelligence is not helping these companies at the cash register.

You make that sound like a bad thing? Most people should want to be physically attractive. The problem is when physically attractive becomes unnatural (gained through starvation, etc) but most truely beautiful people in our society are just extremely healthy examples of the human body.

And of course, youth will always be something to envy, you can't change that with a clever marketing campaign. Well, until we find a way to stop aging, until then, youth is a fleeting moment. As we age we get uglier and continue to have to deal with more and more health issues until we look death in the face. That is just part of life. Deal.
