I got this in the mail the other day. I thought you’d enjoy it if you haven’t seen it yet.
60 Minutes Correspondent Andy Rooney (CBS)
As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, ‘What are you thinking?’ She doesn’t care what you think. If a woman over 40 doesn’t want to watch the game , she doesn’t sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it’s usually more interesting. Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won’t hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it. Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it’s like to be unappreciated. Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart. Older women are forthright and honest. They’ll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one. You don’t ever have to wonder where you stand with her. Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it’s not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, ‘Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?’, here’s an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it’s not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!
I just love being in my 40’s. *smiles*

Shannee, yes many woman over forty are hot and mostly if inclined that way, erotic as hell.
Experience counts for a great deal.
While she never admitted how old she was, the woman who initiated me into the finer points of pleasing a woman was I believe around that age.
While admitting that I have a soft spot, or should that be a hard thing, for most women, a mature loving woman is a joy.
I recall a saying from my young times, “if god made anything better than a beautiful woman, s/he kept it for him/herself.
A poor outlook for men if 80% of women are against marriage, I suppose there is something in your last sentence, that’s assuming that all men are pigs, which I hope isn’t the case.
Love and warm hugs,
Paul.
Hi Paul!! I copied this verbatim from the email and I do, in fact, remember this piece from Andy Rooney on 60 minutes. I thought it was one of his better commentaries…and yes, he was implying that many men are pigs. I don’t think so though. I think that alot of men act like pigs because that’s the social norm amongst men. I’ve seen a whole group of men follow along with one man who started bitching about his wife, but once one person told him to shut up, they all did. I’m frequently the one who tells guys like that to shut up. I fully expected to have all those guys gang up on me the first time I confronted a man about bitching about his wife in front of the whole world. They didn’t though. They all agreed with my assessment that if he’d stop acting like a knuckle dragger around women he might get more of what he wanted from them….especially his wife.
I liked the ‘hard thing’ pun. *winks* That was good. LOL!
I know that alot of men really want the firm young thing. She’s easier on the eyes. That’s sure. And its true that a woman who’s birthed babies is likely going to have pendulous breasts and stretch marks and be a bit more curvy as she ages…But as you and Rooney point out….we sure are a pleasure to have in your bed.
Who knows where Andy got those figures about marriage..? I am certainly not against it. I notice that alot of women who like spanking are married or very interested in committed relationships. Perhaps there’s more willingness to work out conflicts and find ways to keep things happy and alive in spanko relationships….? I don’t know. *smiles* I just know what I like. I think Andy Rooney is hysterical and I am savoring his final years in broadcasting. I love sex and I am celebrating it with humor. *smiles*
I enjoy your comments very much you know. ((Hugs))

True words. When I was a younger man, I had a relationship with an older woman. Delightful memories :)
Every one of the the men whom I would characterize as ‘best’ among my lovers had an older woman mentor them during their early years of their lives….and all of them remember those moments with deep fondness. *smiles*

I loved reading this! A girlfriend and I have been extolling the virtues of being over 40, being able to accept all that we are in a new way.
Thank you for posting it.

This was a great way to start my day. How refreshing that Mr. Rooney gets it. Women over 40 are one of society’s most valuable resources in oh, so many ways.
*hugs*
