I'm 50 and it's hard finding men my age who I find attractive.

What difference does it make? At your age, you are not going to be having sex and with their clothes on they look okay.

Well Fox I would have to disagree with you on this. I recently went out on a date with a fellow pof'er and he is 55. I would not describe him as overweight or styleless in fact he is quite handsome and very charming. I intend on seeing him again. So while what you say maybe true in the general sense one could also say the samething about women. So my advise to you is keep fishing...~M

Smjle, what do you mean at her age she's not going to have sex??? Do you honestly believe that sex stops once people turn a certain age??

Ninki, I would assume so, especially for women. She would be past menopause. There would be no purpose and she would have no desire to have sex. I suppose if her mate wanted to, she might be willing to, but it is not something she would enjoy. A nice long hug would be just as good.

it wouldnt matter at any age you still never find a date with a body like that!!! who would like to make out with the increbile hulk.and the whole jowls thing come on ,after your face lift drops and your tits sag all your mussels will turn to flab.about 5 years from now you will be shooting up with botox to hold on just a little youth you think you have . take a survey with your best pix , i would bet 75% of any age group wouldnt date you.

smjle^^^^hahahahahahahahahahahahahah i just cant take it anymore..hahahahahahahaha

Ok now on a serious note now that im not blowing coffee through my nose laughing so hard

I believe that everyone has a choice in whome they want to be with..Whether that person is large, thin, black, white, purple, long haired, short haired, 50, or 20
What I dont believe in is slamming someone because they arent afraid to voice their choices. Who will we be thinking we are to comment on a 50 yr old womans choice on who she can and cant date..i seriously doubt any of us would appreciate it if the roles were reversed.
The truth was told...many men in our age group have some serious issues with their guts hanging over their belts...winded by the least amount of physical exertion and some with attitudes towards women that completely suck....if you fall into this catagory, dont get upset because women dont want to be with you..get over it and look in a friggin mirror

I applaud women who decide to keep themselves fit...Ive always asked at what point in my life will grey permed hair will be attractive..thanks to ladies like the ones in this thread,,it may be a moot question thatll never need to be asked...

All told, I suppose, not that surprising, our individual and gender-based perceptions and perspectives; I thought it was the other way 'round.

You sooooooooooooo need to go educate yourself, Smjle!!!

I'm 53, and sex is sooooooo much better now for me than it ever was and just keeps getting better....not that it ever bad at any age!! But my sex drive is lots higher now than it has ever been...drives me crazy at times!! I certainly don't miss that monthly stuff either! These are the best days of my (sex) life!!

I must disagree with your way of thinking . It might be that your are frustrated with that type of men , that are attracted to you . There are plenty of Men past the age of 35 who look fit and attractive just like there would be plenty of women who look fit and attractive past 35 . I believe it's spilt down the middle .

But age is not a factor in looking attractive , I can't tell you how many times I have across men and women in their 20's who I thought were in their 40's , who had develop jowls , and hair growing in odd places .. etc ...

I do think we should watch what we eat and exercise is important to keep fit , but some things you won't be able to control unless you could afford plastic surgery and this regardless of age .

So in summary I think you should lower your high expectations and perhaps go for good man with a good heart and someone who will treat you well , you don't have many years left to look for perfection .. time is a ticking ........

Nooooooooooo way!! Never lower your expectations, neeeeeeeeever!!

I'm sure the poster you are talking to does not expect perfection, neither do I...there is no such thing. But I'd rather live alone than live with someone I'm not attracted to and that attraction does not necessarily have to be in looks only. The only man I ever loved was really not that attractive...well, to me he was...but it was his intelligence, patience, caring about others, sense of humor, big heart, all of those things plus more that I found extremely attractive. The fact that he was muscular, tan, dark hair lightened by the sun...did I mention younger than me, hah...yes, those things did help gain my attention to really get to know him, I admit that. That lasted for seven lovely, sex-filled years and we are still friends. He no longer has all those muscles and has since lost most of his hair, but if he wasn't now married to someone else, lol, I could probably still love him to death!

Another thing, you ladies and men in your 40s who think you are old, wow, that surprises me. Your life is just beginning!! I'm in my 50s and still feel like I wanna be about 25, in mind and body! Now I just have the maturity and experience to add to make it all that much more better, heehawwwwwwwwww!!

what is it with these men who keep putting women down? what is wrong with you...

I think the women on here have been pretty fair, some have insulted older men(which is unnessary), but I think they're just speaking from their own experiences and their truth might not necessarily be ''the truth''. This whole getting ugly and being rude to women is bad...just as speaking badly of men is...especially when it's a personal attack...

menopause means you stop ovulating, it doesn't mean you're dead...and with fear of pregnancy now gone, I would imagine a lot of women going through this are able to have more sex than ever...the comment about why do they need to have sex anymore is ridiculous...women dont just have sex to have babies, and when you can't anymore you just stop wanting it...geez...some of these perceptions are seriously outdated...

as for **** power, I dont think anyone is throwing their **** power around...I would think the hot younger chicks do that more so than any age group...a woman who is hot and knows she is, yeah she might use that magnatism to lure men to spend money on them and get whatever it is she wants...but if a man is stupid enough to fall for a chick like that and her games, then whose fault is that? I see it all the time...

just remember guys...everyone is going to get older and things are going to sag, and wrinkle...there are just as many men out there getting plastic surgery now, everyone is trying to fight it, rather than embrace it...and accept it...most people assume i'm around 32-35 when they see me in person...i've aged well luckily as my mom has...but eventually it will catch up with me...death and taxes...but I'm still going to want a man who mesmerizes me both physically and mentally...even when i'm 80, and I hope to live that long...some of these guys sound like real women haters, and that's sad...very sad...i'm not a proponent of hate or personal attacks especially when we're essentially talking to a stranger and don't know them on a personal level...

I had a student in my face today, yelling and screaming, ready to hit me...the other kids didn't understand why i didn't hit her...and get her out of my face...i had two kids later on ready to go one on one with each other...we tear one another apart and all we do is teach the children, our future, that it's ok to hate on one another and be violent with one another

yeah i may be taking this petty put down stuff on the forum too serious, but it's been a rough day and frankly i'd like to see more people having mature discussions rather than fighting and name calling like middle school kids

Ok this one....holy smokes. i will only comment on one of the generalizations made. "After a man hits 35 they seem to just give up on everything....gain weight, have hair growing odd places, develop jowls...just let themselves go completely" Oh my. The press I would get if i started a forum flipping the gender to female. I thik i would be the bill clinton of POF. Come down to florida I know plenty of guys at the gym that would love to meet you. I just started back in the gym at 41 because of my age i go 7 days a week (cant make gains like a young guy anymore). When a number becomes a significant factor in someone's life. Start looking elsewhere because something deeper is wrong. I think people see others exactly as they wish to see them. I could say the same about women my age and say thats why i date younger. It would be a completely false statement but i could still say it and make it believable( i play texas hold'em i can bluff). In the end darlin we are all human we make sacrifices towards our goals. With some that may be a better body while others pursue financial gain with the same zeal.
Bill gates isnt a buff bugger is he..bet ya wouldnt kick him out for crumbs in the bed( place laugh my ass off here).

1. go for a man with a good heart: I agree
2. someone who will treat you well: Agree
3. don't have many years left: Disagree. You could walk outside and be hit by a car. Or, live to be 100 plus.
4. to look for perfection: to anyone who looks for perfection. Gonna be disappointed.
5. time is a ticking.....: Thank God, cuz when time, in and of itself, stops, we all have a lot of accounting to own up to.

Summary: (to the OP): If that's your preference, so be it. I don't give a flying rip, if it's man or woman... there should be NO double standard/judgement. I can be just as shallow as the 50 yr old dude who want a hot 20 something. Or, I can be 'for real' and want a guy who is (as per my profile states) 42-?? - I forget what I put at that end. and keeps himself, decent, not perfect but HUMOR is mandatory. Plus, I prefer a smoker (not heavy smoker... pack or less a day). Go figure.

Look..throughout the whole forums we have seen ppl bashing people over the stupidest things.....espeically when it comes to CHOICE..something we all have
There have been threads of this nature aimed against women(i think this thread itself stemmed from such a thread). There has been threads aimed against men...no matter..its childish...respect others choices..its not that hard...when you dont and continually cry about it..it makes you seem childish, which is not at all attractive to anyone.
In other words Mr Fair Play it has been said against women...and in many cases here in this thread...by you...im sorry but i will NOT stand behind anyone who thinks they are more manly because they attack someone...I have a little more self respect then that.
This chit has gotta stop

I didn't take time to check your profile and see how old you are, but;


Ninki, I would assume so, especially for women. She would be past menopause. There would be no purpose and she would have no desire to have sex.


And you KNOW this because....??

Son let me tell U about "Assume"... it just made an ass out of u, and of me for answering such an utterly UNENLIGHTENED and totally stupid comment.

So you believe that once menopause occurs we stop being women??
That sex should have a "purpose", ( procreation, apparently, since you feel it becomes irrelevant after menopause). So, should you be so fortunate as to obtain a worthwhile female Significant Other,what's gonna happen when she turns 50 and/or goes thru menopause? Are you going to dump her, or cut your d*ck off?
I'm sorry ,I know I just said some really mean things; but I'm over 50, have gone thru menopause and apparently now have no other function except to be an absolute b*tch...since I'm no longer allowed to enjoy sex, what the hell else CAN I do??

Mr Fairplay.....this thread was written as a rebuttal to a thread which was written by a man and she turned it around to say the same thing as a woman. To show men how it feels. And she got just the same reaction that guy got on his thread.

To Mr. Fairplay...older women have still have things to offer and they still like sex,
and if someone prefers a certain age group and that makes them happy
...who are hurting and...some 25 year old guy might get some valuable lessons.
plus with us older women we wont say Surprise..honey..you're going to be a daddy!
By the way, I think us women have put up with the fact that men prefer younger
women for years upon years!!!

To each his/her own. OP, if you can find a younger guy and you are into each other then go for it. Anybody feel like bashing, go ahead, state your opinion. You're entitled to it, just as the OP is entitled to her preference.

I myself have said it before and I'll say it again. I like ALL women. Maybe I'm noy attracted to many women over 50 and I've never been attracted to muscular women but OP, you got a good bod. Whatever works for you and I suppose that is working out and younger guys.

The lady I'm currently seeing is 39. Next year, she's gonna be to old for me. I might have to keep her around just to get seniors discounts. That may be shallow of me but what can you expect from a pirate? I'm so gonna get smacked if she reads this!

Some guys at any age are just into playing games. Same goes for women. What I'm finding out on this site is that most of the women my age have just got out of a relationship and are too busy raising kids to really get into a relationship. Younger women may be a bit prettier but they have little experience. Women a little older than me have their kids mostly raised and are finally ready to settle down.

I really don't care what a woman's age is. As long as she is at peace with herself and we hit it off, does a number really make a difference?
