Older Women & Younger Men; are they finally socially OK?

"Read" and "testes" in the same sentence, Craven?
HOOhaw!

Demi Moore is not alone. Close to a third of unmarried American woman in their 40s through 60s who date are going out with younger men, according to one of the most sweeping surveys ever conducted on the dating habits and sex lives of mid-life singles.

Sex on a first date? Only 2 percent of single women in the age group approved, while 20 percent of the men were amenable, because it's a survey and pretty much everyone lied their asses off and in reality about 74 percent of all respondees would knock it out on the first date if circumstances were right and the tequila was flowing and they promised each other lots of tender kissing and hand-holding and maybe a free breakfast.

Frequency of sex? Sixty percent of the women and 45 percent of the men said they hadn't had any in the past six months, and you simply do not need to look any further for the source of pain and anxiety and frustration and ennui and bitterness and sadness and behavioral med use in this nation, you know?

The survey is in the new edition of AARP The Magazine, the flagship publication of the nation's biggest advocacy group for Americans over 50. The 40-60 year-olds are the ones in power and management positions and most of them aren't getting laid and yet we wonder at the perils and bitchiness and epic tragedies of the world and we go, huh, I wonder why that is. Sigh.

Older women, younger men .... what a combination!!!

I rather like the idea :-D

Me too, isn't that the way it was meant to be? Makes more sense than the other way around:)

Yup, you've nailed it Misti. I love the way you think ;-)

Wasn't there another more recent thread on this topic?

Anyway, my problem is that women my age just look so much older than me!

Pffft!!!!!

I think we may need to remind Montana what she thought about this, when it wasn't a real option.

You should see an optometrist about that problem, cjhsa. Of course, most men your age do need glasses.

As a young man, before and between my two marriages, I favored older women--I'm talking twenty to forty years older--interesting women. Now that I'm an old man, I find I'm not consistent. If I were, I would be a necrophile.

You thought it was a good idea, Montana.

Are you going to walk the talk?

I must confess to doing the "older woman/younger man" thing for a long time. (In just one long relationship) The downside: Midlife crisis multiplied by two! Who in their right mind wants to do that twice!

And I seem to have been in the same situation as msolga.

And we are of course wonderful people. Listen to our wise words, if we happen to speak them.

Yep, we are wise! Be warned! :wink:

We already knew that!

You're right, JLN.

Now, for questions...
