I'm totally gonna buy Plzen's picture book when it comes out! 'This is an apple. Some apples are red. Most are not, though. What color are the apples you have seen? Is your experience atypical for your age cohort?'
I know-- and it wasn't my name. So why did you direct it to me as if it was something I had said?
Because I was agreeing with your post that showed how some people completely disregard the experiences of others, and was giving an example I saw on this thread.
This post is very much in line with my experience of how women I know think and talk about the older guys who come onto them. Pretty different from what you read on PUA/evpsych sites, isn't it?
I know right? I have a limit in my head. I mean 10 years is almost much, that is almost a generation gap! I am still trying to wrap my head around making 40 in my range.
Seems like a world away, or maybe it is because the world has changed right around my 10 year mark (for people who are about 45) compared to my own.
Lots of the same, only less. Still works at carnivals though and I get free rides all the time. I have no interest in carnies but if it means a free stuffed animal or a free carnival ride I'm for that. One asked me to come back to his motel room.
When I was 25 I didn't really perceive someone like that to be attractive, more than likely I would have walked on by and not noticed him. If I would have thought he was attractive, it would have been more of a "he is attractive for his age". The hair loss would have been a strike against him
I have had attractions to certain older men 20 years my senior since I was a teen. BUT I was attracted to those specific men, just as I was attracted to men my age. Sometimes I felt their age was evident, other times I didn't see it at all. Chances are if I wasn't attracted to a guy and he was twenty plus year older, I was more apt to see him as being "old."
I don't want any man that people think he is my grandpa.
That reminds me of a hilarious incident. When I was in college I went to lunch with my dad. The cuckoo waiter thought it was a date. Umm...my dad looks his age...... Dad was appalled.

Okay. There were so many other examples of this on the thread that I thought it was odd that you chose one very specific one that was not terribly representative of the rest.

A nutty friend (she has been in and out of mental hospitals)dated a 55 year old man when she was 18 and yes people often said how nice it was when she and her grandpa went out (he was also an alcoholic). I was somewhere recently with my boyfriend and people asked me what my dad's name was and then I realized they were talking about him. He looks older than me, much older. I look younger for my age and he looks his age or even older.
