Oh dude! That is frickin' HILARIOUS!!!! Thanks for a great laugh tonight, mate. I owe ya a beer or two for those two!
I have a newly-single buddy who is out cougar hunting, and he will get a big kick out of your photos!
Incidentally, Dave - have you ever seen a girl hang out a shingle of desperation for all the world to see with that "dating - knott fling - ring" thing? Maybe she should hang a big D on her forehead?

My gal is yonger but not quite 1/2 my age. 30 years ago she would have been 1/2 my age, too bad we met about 2 years ago.
But who could resist a gem like this one.

Part of our visceral attractions are rooted deep in our animal biology. Men get attracted to younger women because they are wired on an unconscious level to desire the freshest, most viable mate. In history, older women could hardly have children. Men are programmed to desire women in a direct, hungry manner, like seeing delicious food.
Women are stuck raising kids and have, historically had a period of dependence on the man, so biology has programmed them to seek security and strength.
Look at the animal kingdom, the males are usually going for the hot young females one after another and the females are fighting them off until the biggest stud comes around. They also have this biological clock urge to have kids even though they cost big bucks, hurt like hell, and take your freedom away.
That doesn't mean we don't have higher voices and preferences within us, but we have to deal with these basic impulses.
Peace
Karl

hey there... most men, like most folks, are stoked on finding whatever the newest "item" that the MEDIA is pushing at any given moment in time...
long ago, perhaps a "happy homemaker" was speical and for marriage...
now adays.. anything goes that the MEDIA figures they can use to make money... and they use such "items" (gals, in this case) on the covers of magazines, in the movies, tv shows, half-time, on book covers... and the list goes on, as they push more "young gals" (and sadly, many much TOO YOUNG gals) into the flashing lights for the men-of-the-world to be mesmorized by... (hard for them to shake such stuff loose from the brain, to think on other kinds of advertising)....
*well, t*r, i had to post something, as i just posted at the "so called counter attack" post/thread... seems this was my best shot at the ol' target of answering...

The retired Valley hardman standard has always been 1/2 your age and 1/2 your weight. so.... something like 23 and 105lbs......
Jingy: this formula will not work with your hand.
Thanks Russ... But for you isn't it something like 53+ with a weight of 135lbs? Good luck finding one that fits that Valley Hardman Standard... HAHAHA
Or you could just stick with the Sooze! She rips!

F*ck biology. I've never had a serious romantic relationship with anyone younger than me. The closest was just one year older. All others were 7-14 years older. It has everything to do with being able to relate to someone. There is nothing more sexy than a d*mn smart, interesting person who also takes care of themselves/is atheletic.

Bukowski wrote some funny-ass sh*t about this;
in one story he's this older artist dude and
his two women, both less than half his age,
would sit around arguing - trying to
describe just how big of a sh*t he was,
for going out with them...
funny as hell.

Okay, so only one confirmed member of the Half My Age Club, this being Locker. However the poor bastard has paid the price, with at least two if not three ex-wives.
Hey, wait a minute! Locker writes that at the time the picture was taken, she was twenty and he 41. So what? It's just a picture. Is this intentional misrepresentation? Or legit proof of HMAC?

Hey Locker - send me the original and I'll host it for you...
Edit: I hung out with a 38 year old French woman (I was 30 at the time, heh),
who had a two year old daughter. She was amazingly toned, yet still quite feminine.
I asked her how she got such an amazing body, and she said {cue strong French accent}:
"I always move my body"...
-there you have it, ladies...

This may be considered thread drift, but I'm a 42y.o. college freshmen and I was hoping for some advice on how to get me a 21y.o. G/F? And yes I am here for the education, and I'm not distracted by 18-21y.o. women with their under pants sticking out the top o their levi's.
