For The Ladies of This Fine Forum
« Reply #-1 on: March 11, 2014, 11:03:07 AM »
I stole this from someone on Another site
 
"Andy Rooney's thoughts on women over forty, Do you agree with him?: 
 
As I grow in age, I value women who are over forty most of all. Here are just a few reasons why: A woman over forty 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 forty 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 forty 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 forty give a hoot what you might think about her or what she’s doing. 
 
Women over forty 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 forty 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 forty 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 forty. They always know. 
 
A woman over forty looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over forty 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 forty for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it’s not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of forty-plus, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some twenty-two-year-old waitress. 
 
Ladies, I apologize. 
 
For all those men who say, “Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free,” here’s an update for you. Now 80 percent of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it’s not worth buying an entire pig, just to get a little sausage."

I have to disagree about the bright red lipstick looking good on women 40+ or not.  Yuck!

My guess is ...that is a lighting condition dependent observation on the part of the author.... :D

I totally agree with the rest of that line (being sexier over 40).  I'm just not a fan of makeup.

I believe that the author is not Andy Rooney but Frank Kaiser, syndicated columnist.  You can read the original version on his web site, suddenly.senior.com.

OK, I have got to go find Ben Franklin's letter about older women. Me and ole Ben think a lot alike.
