I agree whole heartedly with you on all.
I'm older but I look and act like I'm still in my twenties..it's a turn off for older women but younger women work well with me because life don't end just because you been around a while.
I do wish this site had a better way of showing an age before you click on a photo especially with the "who is been viewing me" feature because some of the women who are to young get viewed on accident.
I post my age limitations and they are within the ages I've dated before and don't mind.
I have dated women who are older and women who are 27 and up that's my cut off and have had fun with all.

I pretty much act my age - except that my musical tastes are a little more eclectic than most my age -
I blame that on my 22 yr old son who keeps me up to date on such things.
But anyway, I think the younger guys I have dated like that I act my age...like they are seeking maturity and comfiness or something like that...

I have dated women younger and older than myself, one by as much as 20yrs my senior. Many egocentric men refuse to date an older woman they are missing out because of their closed mindedness. To me, age is just 2 digits and should not be a factor in whether or not 2 people decide to pursue one another.

is that 2 digits versus 1 or 3?

It's about being happy with where you're at and who you are. I had a couple of friends who got depressed when they turned 30 whereas I embraced it. I'm 52 and I don't care. I appreciate each day that I am alive. Many people die before they see 20 or 30!! They never get to travel like I have, being in love, have a family and whatever else matters to each of us.
It's not really just about a number or health/fitness though, it's also about the individual, attitude and life experiences. I've chatted with men younger than me whose attitude and outlook on life I found to be old.. But I have also had a wonderful long term relationship with someone a few yrs younger than me. It all depends on the 2 individuals and how they relate and connect.

Age IS only a number...unless you're talking about cheese and perhaps wine...

how do other members feel about the way attitudes to age are shown on tv? I got really angry last night ... watching a TV sitcom. It was the USA sitcom '2 and a half men '...which I guess is shown in many countries. Charlie was saying to his brother 'you put your tongue in the mouth of a 60 year old woman ...yeuch'. (I would estimate the 2 brothers to be early 40s) There was no further comment on the lady in question ... it was simply her chronological age that was disgusting him. He made it sound as if a 60 year old woman were barely human!
This is the nastiest, but not the only, reference to women (yes its always women) of that age being past lovemaking, dating etc that I have noticed recently in TV sitcoms and films (all USAmade).
Had Charlie said instead 'you put your tongue in the mouth of a black woman ...yeuch!' millions of people (including myself) would have been horrified. Is it just me that finds 'ageism' upsetting too?

ebony4you: We all know someone who doesn't look their age. Most times we say this in a complimentary way, as in, You're forty-eight! Wow! You don’t look it!
And sometimes not so complimentary, Would you believe she's only thirty? I thought she was a lot older!
Age really is just a number marked by a twelve month calendar that ticks off the years. Unfortunately we are defined by that number because of our preconceived ideas of what that number should look like.
when we think of anyone fifty or sixty years old, in our mind's eye we see someone resembling a stereotypical version of an old person. That's a bit sad and completely unfair.
Your chronological age isn't necessarily your real age. It all depends on how well you feel and act. While physical health has a lot to do with age so does your attitude. It's a mindset. If it is true that we are only limited as to what we can do by our imagination and our will, then aging should be a cinch. Jacques Cousteau scuba-ed in his eighties, Broadway dancer Ann Miller danced well into her seventies, Michelangelo did his last sculpture at eighty-four, and Diane de Poitiers of France was considered the most beautiful equestrian in all Europe at the age of sixty-seven. These people always did what made them feel good. Think of older people you know who defy the stereotype of their age number in looks and agility.
I know people who cry over turning thirty and losing their youth and people who celebrate being fifty saying this is their second youth. There are those who feel old in their twenties and others who feel young in their forties. It all depends on how you think about life.
Good genes help but good attitude and caring for your health are to your benefit. Trying new physical activities is a plus too.
So the next time you're doing something age is not always appropriate either!
So I am curious how you all feel about being in a realtionship with someone older or younger than yourself. In the past,I have been in that relationship, and it worked just fine. So it made me wonder how the rest of you are doing out there.
There are obvious negatives and positives to being with an older/younger person, but that is with anything in life. Even dating someone your age has it's ups and downs. So have any of you explored this form of dating?
I've a friend who's real touchy about her ago, not that anyone knows it cos she won't tell anyone And sometimes not so complimentary, Would you believe she's only thirty? I thought she was a lot older!
