Who said that?
I never feel ignored by my husband, and that’s what matters!
Well, I have to say, I’m beginning to feel that way. After being a size 4, even after kids, the ol’ metabolism comes to a sceeching halt and the pounds are harder to lose (and, I have to say...I love food and am a good cook, unfortunately). Still....it’s about your outlook and what you project. Priorities. Soul.
Really? I still get hit on all the time and my boyfriend thinks I’m beautiful and a very sexy woman.
Having said that, there are some men who need to look in the mirror, too.
They needed a study to determine this?
A woman who shuns a loving family and wants only to be her own woman will wither away lonely. Those women who find roles in a family (or sometimes an organization), find that they are valued members of their social network. Those women who are the anchor of their families are the ones who would never vainly feel invisible. For those who want only a superficial and sex appeal centered existence, it is most likely these are the ones who find themselves shunned, not invisible but loathed as used up and worn out.
of course it required government money taken from tax payers at the point of a gun to fund this study to tell us the obvious. and even conservatives here are jumping to the great news not seeing what is happening
bkmk
Why do I not feel this way? I take exceptional care of myself and have a fantastic spiritual, mental, professional, love, creative life.
I stay a breast of fashion. I practice holistic health. I eat natural protein, fruit, and veggies. No sugar. No processed foods. I exercise daily. I lift weights. I groom!!! I think I am hot and the men around me agree and if they don' that is fine too. I have great friendships with men and that can be a benefit if there isn't all that sexual stuff going on.
I love life. I love God. I love people.
If they quit looking fine. I do what I do for me and for my man and live to fulfill God's will. Pretty simple stuff.
Women that are older often don't realize these are the best of times for us. One just has to make a decision about how badly they want to feel great physically, spiritually. emotionally. mentally. Because in this day and age if one takes great care of themselves they can really work that life experience and thrive.
It is all in the attitude and also having a God and knowing He has a plan for all those great gifts He gives us makes me not want to give up until I go home to Him. :-D. He put us all here for a reason and gave us many gifts to use for His greatness.
That’s why your eyesight starts to go down hill at 50 - so you can’t see the wrinkles. LOL Seriously though my wife looks better to me at 53 than she ever did before and I tell her that everyday- that way she knows she has something to live up to - it’s not rocket science fellas!

I just wish some of them would shut up.

1. It’s absolutely true.
2. It’s never going to change.
The task of womanhood is learning to be as beautiful on the inside as God made them on the outside because the outside part will wither and die like any flower but the inner part lives forever if one is in Christ.
An inwardly beautiful woman will still have the attention she wants from a husband, children and grandchildren in her latter years. The ones who become bitter harpies are just never going to see that type of affirmation once the beauty leaves.
OK..it’s just past 3am..couldn’t sleep..so maybe I’m missing something. I’ve read the article twice now, and nowhere did I see the word married. Are we talking here about single women or married ones? I expect their marital state dramatically alters their self-perception.
Well, duh! Men are hardwired to be interested in nubile women so that they can find mates who will help them pass on their genes.
As a woman ages, her reproductive abilities wane, so biology removes her from the nubility pool. Unless the whiners have a way to turn back the clock — which, I am sure, these purveyors of herbal supplements claim they can do — these gals need to readjust their attitudes and learn to value those qualities that they have that are not tied to juvenescence.
Somewhere in this is just another double standard.
I went to my 45 year class reunion last summer and all the gals there reminded me of how my grandmother used to look.........I found that very strange.
Boo hoo.
Instead of blaming men, start complaining to TV and movie producers, and magazine editors. They worship youth and discard middle age and older.
