Are older men sometimes intimidated by older sexy women?

Sexy is attitude.......and you don't have it....that's why you don't feel sexy.....to be sexy you gotta feel sexy........

I have no desire to feel "sexy". It is a frivilous pursuit. I'm not interested in how desirable I am to others. That's their worry, not mine.


Just a little follow up.........but aren't you 43 yrs old? And isn't this the over 45 yr ?

What does my age have to do with it? I thought POF allowed members to post wherever they want.


You are feeling way to old for your age

No, I wouldn't say this in the least. Besides, as the saying goes,you're only as old as the woman you feel.


Shows in the way you write.

What is shining through in the way I write is my objection to the way certain people on here are treated. Some guy starts a poorly worded thread and the cabal of hens start pecking him to death, knowing that he will get frustrated and write something even more stupid as a follow up so that they can continue pecking.
This sisterhood completely ignore the silly things that their own membership write, instead ganging up to shred the poor guy's self esteem. They will totally ignore the underhanded comments made by their own little gang that they know is goading the poor fellow on, instead turning their venom on the hapless bloke.Yet, they act so charitably to one another, boosting each-other's confidence with their silly patter. Why not extend some of that charity to the guy in the first place? The unpleasantness could be avoided. It's a form of bullying.They want to shred the poor bloke. Yet, when something unflattering is witten about them, they act like it's a traumatic experience.


Sexy whenever you want or are with the right person is as easy as smiling and having them smile back, a smile that reaches someone eyes and you know its just for you or someone reaching and grabbing your hand.....sexy is sometimes defined by the media as movie star good looks.......but that seldom happens for most of us.

Yeah, yeah, this "sexy" crap again. None of what you have described is what I would define as "sexy".


To see sexy is to be in the moment with someone that only they will do....and for that moment you are amazing.

I'm always amazing. I don't rely on how someone else is viewing me to feel that way.


I lost my Husband whenever he was one year younger than you.

I'm sorry to hear this. Losing a spouse is very painful.


Right now my friend you are stuck in a rut with your attitude

I'm not sure that you can tell this by some POF postings, but I know you mean well, so thank you for the concern. :)


So instead of being a Dour person get busy with the exciting life of living and quit focusing so much on age...

LOL, I'm hardly a dour person, and I'm not sure why you are convinced that I'm focused on my age. Just because I make comments that don't sit well with the wavy-gravy sisterhood on the over 45 threads, doesn't make me dour.


you are a handsome man...now make your heart fit your outside.

Thanks, I know I'm handsome. I can't help that.

Once we get to know what the tools will be used for, we will be much more at ease and probably lusting by then.


that is lusting for the tools...right :P

Oh contraire Ms. Sapphireeyes, a woman that owns power tools and knows how to use them is extremely desireable, of course that is just my opinion.

I don't think an older man would be intimidated by any sexy woman.
Older men might be intimidated by older, forthright, outspoken women - and not only older men, either.
Unfortunately, no one is initimidated by me - not even my dog or cat. Maybe the next door neighbour's dog...nahh. Just yesterday, he walked right up to the front door and took a dump, while I was watching. Story of my life.

I get the feeling a lot of the women are hoping this is true. From what men say on the other boards, it doesn't seem to be intimidation - it seems more to do with what the woman looks like and from a lot of the posts, it appears the men equate youth with looks. I'm not sure why people have a difficult time discussing this.

Some men seem to be intimidated by intelligent women. Some men just seem not to like them. But some men get really turned on by intelligence in a woman. Being intimidated by a sexy woman, of any age? The only reason for that I can think of is if it is a man who cannot perform sexually, not at all or not very well. That would be a reason for someone to be wary of a sexually dynamic older woman.

Wow!!!! A man after my own heart!!!!

Ya ... there aren't too many of us out there ... and not all that many men actually lusting after us (sigh)... but believe me, once they catch us ... they know what they've got. WHEW!!!! ... gives me goose bumps just thinking about it ...

Good point Ismene2 ... I've also ventured out there with that one. Be careful pointing that out in here because there are guys lurking around in here who will want your head on a platter for even insinuating such a thing ... voice of experience speaking here.

Oh dear ... taking a real chance with that one too. There are guys in here who will call you a "man-basher" or "man-hater" for making statements like that. LMAO, Ismene2 ... run for cover!!!!!

in order to answer this question intelligently, a woman would first have to put herself in the shoes an older man...after years of self pride in his ability to perform admirably. in the sexual arena..he now finds himself, out of work...of course, he would feel a loss of confidence...when he is confronted by an older woman who still wants it...perhaps now more that ever..he feels a sense of...where were you when i needed you....he could try to please you in other areas...gifts, money, dinners, emotional support, loyalty...however...i am sure his sense of loss is profound....

msg 410: I don't know why anyone would take it personally or be upset. I certainly didn't say, and don't imply it or think it, that those are characteristics of all men, only certain individuals. Only someone who felt he was being specifically identified would be upset by what I posted.

I only think it's fair that if I know how to cook that a woman should be comfortable around power tools. The more that we both have in common the better. It is definately not a requirement though. It is just one trait in a woman that I find sexy...confidence.

Oh please, you start talking to women in there forties about sex and they think you are only after one thing anyway.
What i cant understand is why women think men should behave like gentleman when they are older when most men still think like there 25 and look at sexy women no matter what there age.

Ummm, it depends on when you start talking about it. Sex is not exactly the best topic for beginning a conversation with someone you don't know.

Yeah, I do realize I'm not in my forties anymore, but it hasn't been so long ago that I've forgotten what it was like.

Absolutely,,,
we're also intimidated by:
cotton candy

We just don't tell anyone so we don't get teased and run away crying

..Pulls out the chainsaw * Brrrrrrrrrrrrr* Drops chainsaw....."That skerid me."

Scrambles through tool box and locates a itty bitty little screwdriver, holds it up....feels a sense of confidence.

Ms. Mae...."step away from the power tools"...as stated above it is not a requirement just one form of confidence. There are many other forms of confidence that are sexy in a woman. Having red hair and green eyes is just another one of those sexy things that is a personal favorite but certainly doesn't intimidate me.

once a man reaches a certain age there will be a power shift in his relationship with women because his ability to perform sexually is wanning..that is just a fact that must be faced...if this man is confronted with a sexually vibrant woman who obviously still wants and can have as good a sex life as ever and he cannot offer that...this presents problems...if he is determined to pursue her...

...Well what a coincidence, I just happen to have red hair and green eyes, well hazel eyes...close enough.

In all honesty, I wouldn't want a man to feel intimidated by me...but I would want him to think of me as strong, confident and desirable.

"... still sexy minded,"????????

Still? I hope so. When I stop having those feelings it will time to plant daisys over me.

As for the attraction of younger men, they need love too, poor things!

One of the wonders of age is appreciation of love making in all its forms. Painting my lover's toe nails is as much fun as intercourse. Being older to me means not having to posses all the goodies at one time.

Keep on being you!!!
