I value women who are over 30 most of all.

Written by Andy Rooney

As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here
are just a few reasons why: A woman over 30 will never wake you in
the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't
care what you think.

If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit
around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And,
it's usually something more interesting.

A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she
is, what she is, what she wants and from whom.

Few women past the age of 30 give a damn what you might think about
her or what she's doing.

Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match
with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant.

Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if
they think they can get away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know
what it's like to be unappreciated.

A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women
friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best
friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women.

Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends
because she knows her friends won't betray her.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins
to a woman over 30. They always know.

A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not
true of younger women or drag queens.

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier
than her younger counterpart.

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off
if you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have
to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons.
Unfortunately,it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart,
well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in
yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old
waitress.

Ladies, I apologize.
