| Are women marketable after age 30?
Posted: 7/25/2007 5:02:49 AM | lol how am i misguided? its kind of a inept post to begin with generalizing a species on their age .plus then to assume they are being adverised and marketted like some old slab of meat on a retailers shelf
cmon people
if ur trying to sell yourself there is a name for that behaviour
and anyone that requires you to sell yourself to them isnt worth being bought by
i thought society was trying to veer away from the concept of owning one another and here in the thread we debase ourselves by playing into the silliness
The only guys Ive seen who desire mostly a girl in 20's, are the guys who feel like their getting old..
according to that untrue statement, perhaps these men are looking for someone to have kids with
as most women in there mid to late 30 s have already had kids or are against them
dont be maligning peopel in their 20s as we have all been there b4 and it just looks like silly jealousy from old people if you sit there and call women in their 20s " lil girls"
age doesnt make u responsible or mature, its your personality and moral viewpoints.ive dated women 12 yrs older than me that were less mature than certain 15 yr olds i knew
alcoholism drug abuse etc etc arent metered by your age
its funny how many men will jump on a thread like this to act like they are all "above" dating a younger woman and how the want a " woman"yet where do they go after work? the stripper bar to look at the 19 yr old peelers, or the local pub to drool over the hot thing in the tank top,cmon a lil honesty here would b more useful than a heep of bs to make men appear better on the surface, men are pigs and opportunists plain and simple , the sooner we acknowledge and accept that , the sooner we can grow .
we dont care how u market yourselves, just wear a tight tank top and some daisy dukes and thats all the marketing and packagin you ladies need to turn our lil heads

Posted: 7/25/2007 5:16:10 AM | | I"m 32 and think I'm like a fine wine - I look better, smell better, taste better and am worth a hell of alot more the older I get. I know what I want and don't take second best. I think men think we might be unmarketable because we challenge them more. We've seen teh world, have experience and heaven forbid thoughts, ideas and opinions we like to share. Yep, I"m happy being merlot-lisicious! | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 5:44:02 AM | I'd have to say, your roommate is kind of a numbnut. "Marketable"? Serious?
I prefer women with a bit more wisdom under their belt than a younger woman. They are still learning about themselves, and to a point, annoying.
Woman 27+, I've found, seem to know what they want, who they are and where they're going. They've dropped they're, like, California, like, speech. They are more fun to hang out with and they're great conversationalists.
You're roomate's view of things isn't marketable at all.  | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 5:46:04 AM | Plus the sex is amazing lol. They really are comfortable with themselves and aren't afraid of what they want. Which gets kind of crazy sometimes.
They really bring the thunder! | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 5:58:46 AM | LOL, I don't know about "marketable" and there certainly is some dust on the bottle here, but FWIW, I feel better than ever before in my life. Despite my attempts to sabotage my body (overweight, smoking, staying up too late), I feel healthier than I did when I was 25. I'm happy with my life.  | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 6:00:24 AM | In my experience, woman pre-30 are not at all interesting, I am sorry to generalize but in my life woman before 30 are too pre-occupied with other peoples opinions and know very little about themselves and the world in general.
After 30, even 40, they become comfortable in their own skins and often their external as well as their internal beauty becomes complete

Posted: 7/25/2007 6:11:03 AM | Well this slide of beef was stamped Canada grade AAA, tastes better the more it ages.
I'm past the 30's but I will say this for them classy, elegant, cultured, in great shape,
intelligent, at ease in their skin.
Sure the 20 year olds may be firm and sexy, the 30yr olds, are soft and sensual both mentally and physically. It's a matter of choice isn't it.
Let's not ask if 30 yr old men are marketable, I'll be nice and leave them to their illusions. | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 6:14:23 AM | | So well said!!! I will soon be 50 and I am very happy with myself and my life. I think that with age comes wisdom/ confidence and so much more. I believe that women tend to take better care of themselves after 30 and have just basically learned so much more and know how to apply it to their lives. I just think that older women can be really sexy if they choose to be.......and not just the ones at the 30 yr mark but even older ones! | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 6:50:41 AM | The reason that women in their 20s are more marketable is because they are cheaper.
I ABSOLUTELY DISAGREE with the point he was trying to make about thier appeal being less if they are over 30.
In my 20's I spent 8 out of those 10 years dateless and single. After the age of 30, even though I have put on a stack of weight, I attract better men, respectable men, and plenty of them who are willing to invest time getting to know me.
In my 30's I also attract a lot of mature minded 20 ish year olds, who wouldn't have a bar of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan or that revoulting Tara Reid.
Yeah there are plenty of 20ish year olds being purchased, but that's because they have been marked down for quick sale like a piece of meat near its best before date. LOL...
woop woop wooop...

Posted: 7/25/2007 7:52:22 AM | | Are we marketable? What are we meat that has an experation date after 30? I look better then I did at 30, know what I want out of life that I didn't know at 30, know the men I do or don't want that I didn't know at 30, and know that after 30 is not the kiss of death, it's the beginning of comming into your own sexuality and knowing that hell yes, not only are we marketable we are the best on The Market! | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 8:01:00 AM | GEOGRAPHY OF A WOMAN
Between 18 and 22, a woman is like Africa, half discovered, half wild, naturally beautiful with fertile soil.
Between 23 and 30, a woman is like America, well developed and open to trade, especially for someone with cash.
Between 31 and 35, a woman is like India, very hot, relaxed and convinced of her own beauty.
Between 36 and 40, a woman is like France, gently aging; but still warm and a desirable place to visit.
Between 41 and 50, a woman is like Great Britain, with a glorious and all-conquering past.
Between 51 and 60, a woman is like Yugoslavia, lost some wars, won some great battles but haunted by past mistakes, still very strong and proud.
Between 61 and 70, a woman is like Russia, very wide and borders are now largely un-patrolled.
After 70, she becomes Tibet. Off the beaten path, with a mysterious past and the wisdom of the ages... still desirable but only those with an adventurous spirit and a thirst for spiritual knowledge and true love, dare visit there.
As for marketing, there is an old adage: "Build a better mousetrap and the word will beat a path to your door." Marketing is the process of making people aware of something, which is quite different than sales. Marketing is leading a horse to water; sales is making them drink. IMHO, beauty resides within the person. Working out at the gym, wearing make-up, hair and clothing style, etc etc might be what catches someone's eye, but th person inside (regardless of age) is who will (or not) hold their attention. Ever see "Harold and Maude?" I rest my case. | |

What, pray tell is "like, California, like, speech"? Are you referring to the old Moon Unit Zappa song, Valley Girl? This native Californian is rather tired of the stereotypes. Most of us speak our mother tongue of English quite well, thank you very much.  Back to the subject, at 47, I am in the prime of life right now, as are many of my friends. We are happy, healthy, wiser, blessed in many ways, and know how to have a good time. Some twenty somethings even want to join us.
A guy friend of mine, age 29, recently told me that women his age, are stupid and crazy. I'm not necessarily in agreement with his blanket statement, but I do know that when I was younger, I have had moments where I have resembled that remark.
Nick, I love your comment. | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 8:52:43 AM | What an odd question? Obviously from someone not that old yet.
Mimosa has the right idea, put it to him, are guys marketable after 30 ? Turn those tables.
None of us are for sale, Life begins at 20 or 30 or 40 or 50 or 60, what ever we choose.
Age is all mind over matter, if you don't mind it does not matter. | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 9:28:30 AM | | This was actually the topic of discussion at work the other day between one of my managers and I. He is more of a veteran of online dating and I am new to it, so I had some questions for him. I mentioned one profile I came across which said something along the lines of 'all you women who say you are 29 or 39...get over it!' I AM 39! I don't hide my age...I don't feel the need to. What I have noticed recently in myself (besides the fact that at this age, I'm very at peace with who I've become) Is that the men I prefer has changed. I don't want a party boy, or someone who spends a large amount of their money on material posessions (clothing, car, etc.). I want a MAN. No more boys with their priorities askew. Someone comfortable in their own skin and content with their life, yet not stagnating in some self-built rut. Established yet adventurous. These don't seem to be traits I came across in younger men...I find I'm enjoying the men I meet now, close to my age, much more than the men I met when I was younger. Just my 2 cents! | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 9:45:43 AM | Re post 70:
All people are "appealling". IMO, younger ones (M/F) have more "mass" appeal, whereas the older and more "vintage" they become, the more "niche" appeal they have (M or F).
Thus it is a question of philosophy: Does one, woman or man, want to be of "mass" appeal, like detergetent or a soft drink, or of "niche"/vintage appeal like a 20 year old BMW or a 1955 French wine from let's say Bordeaux??
Since people are not products, and they are not sold or mass produced or consumed by many, then I guess the niche appeal is the preferable.
Actors and athletes etc want to be of mass appeal, but for box office reasons, not Eros or rels. Most want different lives, that is why they walk around in dark glasses and try not to be recognised.
PS. I must admit that CA women do have a certain "aura", I guess it is the weather and the San Andreas fault effect (ie that life is a temporary thing, hence carpe diem). And that appeals to a certain niche of men too. "California dreaming ....." | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 10:05:50 AM | | I don't associate with people who have problems with age, so I wouldn't know a good answer to this question. I've never had anyone say they wouldn't date me because of my age. Most times they are very surprised at how old I am. | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 10:19:41 AM | I can only repeat what an interested 24 yr old male told me when he was trying his best to see for himself how I was...."I guess I like my women aged to perfection!" | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 10:36:53 AM | Your roommate doesn't have the slightest clue what he/she is talking about. The thirties are the new twenties!!! ... I guess your roommate hasn't heard that one before! To tell you the truth, my dating was at it's peak in my thirties ... I was a hell of alot more active dating in my thirties than I was in my twenties. People aren't rushing into things in their twenties anymore ... they're waiting till their 30's and even 40's. All I can say is that I have definitely gotten better with age. In my twenties I was overweight with a very low self-esteem. In my thirties I lost all my excess weight and have so much more confidence. I'd say I definitely look more "marketable" now than I did then. Tell your roommate to dig a little deeper in his/her reasearch and I'm sure he/she will have a change of opinion.  | |

Posted: 7/25/2007 11:05:09 AM | Indeed there does appear to be a best before date stamped on my a$s but I can't read it because it's upside down.
Plus I'm blind as a bat with or without my glasses. | |
