I'm with you on Diane Keaton. I thought she was hotter than her daughter in that picture. Personally, I'm pretty appalled by the shallowness of a lot of these posts, slamming women over 40 as "hags." I thought Freepers had a bit more depth and better taste.

I'm 46 myself, and I don't drool over Twinkies like Britney Spears. Sex appeal is more than looks, and most women don't even begin to get interesting to me until they're at least 30 and have become more worldly, experienced and womanly. Come on, do you seriously think Bo Derek was sexier when she was a young, blank-faced mannequin than she is now? When I see Hugh Hefner (perfectly described by a recent Lucianne.com poster as "Dorian Gray without the picture") with his harem of identical 20-year-old Barbie dolls, I feel about as sick as I would seeing a 40-year-old man hitting on a 7-year-old girl. Bleah!

I think it's only a certain shallow type of Hollywood bimbo being slammed as hags --- because inside that's all they ever were. Stars like Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Kathryn Hepburn, Merle Streep, Sophia Loren and others don't suffer the same fate because there was a little more to them than sex appeal and silicone. The women being discussed used their bodies --- readily removed their clothes for their acting roles --- now they can't figure out what's wrong. Sex appeal was all they ever had and much of that was fake.

I agree 100%.

I'm with you!I just turned 50 and I have always liked older ladies.Even in high school my girlfriends where older.I like maturity and attitude,I find it sexy.

As for as Katheren Bates,she doesn't seem to be hurting for work work either.By the way,she may be on the heavy side I think her attutude,smile,and the twinkle in her eyes makes her sexy.
