Had a bit of a revelation this evening: the pool of hotties gets larger the older you get. When you're 17 and see a 23-year old hottie, she's not a hottie...she's an old person. But when you're 23, an 18-year old hottie is still a hottie. Same holds true if you're 32...18-year old is still a hottie and that 32-year old across the room is a hottie too. Of course that 40-year old she's talking too is an old person, but you know what? Eventually she'll become a hottie too!
Conclusion? The world gets better looking the older you get!
Ahh...the bits of enlightenment that alcohol provides never ceases to amaze me

Haha, thats a nice way to look at it, but as the pool gets larger, your chances with them get smaller

I think that depends entirely on how much money you have, and whether or not you have a reliable supplier of Viagra.

When I turned 30 one of the cards I got read (on the outside cover)
Whats the best thing about turning 30?
The inside of the card was blank
There ain't nothing nice about getting old - I just spent 2 of the worst weeks of my life. My 40 year old partner was in hospital with heart problems -> ex-aerobics instructor, non-smoker, good diet, no family history but heart problems at the age of 40
age sucks

I can last A LOT longer in bed now that I'm an old man of 25. Oh, and when you give oral sex you don't stick your tongue in the hole.

Getting older is great! I have a wonderful 9 month old grandson! As far as women, I tend to date women much younger than me, so that's cool too!

Cheaper car insurance which translates into being able to afford a faster/ better car.
Plus if you have a soft top, you don't have to worry about the wind in you hair, cos you might not have as much (hair that is)

Hope your partner is OK! I don't know your partners situation, but having yearly physicals can catch early heart disease. Now a BP >120/80 is considered pre-hypertension, it does damage to the arteries and the heart. When genetics enter diet and exercise alone aren't enough, medical intervention is needed!

A good thing about getting older is you care less and less what people think of you.
A good thing about getting older is that you realize you don't actually know very much, but you're OK with that.
A good thing about getting older is that you're more mellow, with a better perspective on what's a problem and what's just gonna blow over.
'Course, a bad thing about getting older is that you often lose your sense of wonder.

thanks wdlove - the doctors are still baffled but have at least reset the heart back to a normal rhythm & pulse with all chambers beating - they did this by the old "stand clear" electric shock!

Ever date a 35 year old woman? They can't get enough. Hell, my wife is getting like that and she just turned 30.

By that time, you don't want it - you want the 18 year old across the road.

This thread reminds me of the Futurama episode when the old dude reverses his age, and they all go back to their infant selves.

not that I think being old is so great (I'm still in College), but being able to rent a damn car without them thinking I'm six years old would be nice.

HAHAHA Nail on the head son!!
When I was 18 I'd see a 40 yr old woman and be like; "Damn she's OLD"
Now that I'm 34 it's like; "Hmmmmmm not bad lookin' "
The younger and older ones seem to look pretty good at times (younger and older within reason of course).
I've also noticed women who are actually 18-ish now appear like they're 13 or 12 to me for some reason (I.E. too young). I'm just not attracted to real young women anymore.
I really wonder if there's something in our genetic imprinting/makeup/whatever you call it; that makes us attracted to people "around" our age or within a few years. I mean I've known women who were like 10 yrs older than me that I've found quite attractive lately.
