Just a nice piece I found and thought I'd share with you all. **Correction** This is a somewhat edited version of a piece written by Frank Kaiser, a link to which you may find below, kindly added by Slaughter (thanks) As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why: A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think. If a woman over 30 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 something more interesting. A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing. Women over 30 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. A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her. Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 30. They always know. A woman over 30 will look good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women or drag queens. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 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 30 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30 , there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress. Ladies, I apologize. (Message edited by angelwild327 on December 27, 2005) |

Truly funny but NOT Rooney - actually written by Frank Kaiser but mistakenly attributed to Rooney. http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/rooney2.asp 90% of the stuff supposedly attributed to Rooney in the last decade seems to be made up. Snopes.com is a valuable resource for this stuff. |

I didn't mean to sound like such a jerk. It WAS a real good read - and points are well made. Besides, I most DEFINITELY prefer older wimmenz. (besides, Sunny reads Badweb too so I gotta watch what I say) |

And if women over 30 are better, just imagine how great women over 50 must be... |

I will ask Frank about the above, He's a good friend of mine. Could be he is the source of it, though the "opera" line not his style - Frank's idea of a fun night out is 3 or 4 hours spent in the shop at the lathe or the mill, without the phone interrupting him! He may have been using Penny, my wife of 26 years, or our friend Skeeter Todd's wife Marie, as examples for the piece! (Skeeter is the guy that originally did the mods on my RS) Penny is somewhat closer to 60 than 50, and at this moment she's pulling on her leathers to ride the roadking to a class. If you ever need to find me, Frank or Skeeter in a crowd, we're easy to find, we'll have the yellow pants on! AL |

My girlfriend is 35 and I think she'd be pissed off being considered an "older woman". |

Funny enough the original article was written about women over 50, so it sounds like it's right on the money for most people. DJ-- I'm 35 too and although I feel I am much better off as a human than when I was in my 20's, I never think of myself as an "older woman"..it truly is all about how young you feel....adding years of experience and wisdom is always a good thing in my opinion! Glad you guys liked the article! |
