In my early 20's the number of women in the world over the age of about 30 that I found attractive I could count on one hand. Now, ten years later, the world appears to be full of beautiful women of all ages. I'm happily married (honest!!), so I'm not purposely going out of my way to look, but where did the rest of them come from so quickly?

Have the scales slipped from my eyes, or has something else happened that I've yet to find out about? Has this happened to anyone else? And is this a men-only thing, or do women have a sudden see-the-light moment??

I'm intrigued, cos I'm puzzled.

they're all lovely

But then I think being picky is setting yourself up for constant disappointment

Yes, but do you find them more attractive as you get older?

Nah, I think you get less fussy as you grow older.

Hence the proliferation of the term "MILF"

No, I've never fancied anyone with a helmet.

I used to think "My God she's pretty". Then it became, "My God in 5 years she'll be gorgeous". Now I think "I wonder what her Mum looks like?".

Yes, the age range grows and standards tend to drop with age. Or perhaps we can see below the surface with old mens' eyes and don't let the superficial get to us. But then again...nah, just less fussy.
