I think it was Dave Barry commenting on how old age is harder on women. This was at the time Sean Connery was the dapper and graying bearded fifty something.

He said that when men get older they look like Sean Connery, but when women get older they look like...Sean Connery.

Which planet is it where Dave Barry has observed men in their 50s looking like Sean Connery? It certainly hasn’t been true anywhere in the world that I’ve lived. Entirely too many of them have pudgy breasts and are paunchy in the midsection. Some have large, aggressive bellies that menace anyone walking in the opposite direction. Hair, when they have it, can be frizzy, poorly groomed. There might also be hairy structures emerging from back collars, through the nostrils, out the ears and so on.

Especially about those who seem hell-bent on becoming zaftig women as the testosterone drops, I have to ask, how can these schlubs have, without the tasks of bearing children, developed such guts? A woman with a belly might have borne a few children. What is any man’s excuse?

LMAO! I once saw an older gal in a previous church who had the face of John Wayne. And no, it wasn’t during the sermon!

I'm over 60 and have been told I look like Sean Connery. My wife is over 50 and she still looks hot to me. She reads FR all the time. ;)
