HIM: a bois attractiveness is lessened by 25% once he hits 20, it's a gay lawThanks, ZK. I'm trying hard to feel bad about you turning 20.
ME: what happens at 21?or 25?

I do believe I said that there are exceptions to the law. It's not like EVERYONE is ugly when they're 50, and I don't even mean physically attractive. I mean the chances of finding someone who is attracted to you is lessened at those ages.
I have to disagree. I think we get better with age! Being that I'm turning 32 this year, I know more than I did in my 20's which causes less stress and less confusion, which in turn creates less wrinkles. My sex life has improved because I know what I'm doing now and I'm in better physical shape because I want to live longer so I can enjoy the sex with no wrinkles for as long as possible. LOL
A gay law? Who's writing the these laws and why isn't in my handbook? Dammit!
Another example of culture's obsession with youth and beauty. I keep reading how it's wrong, but it continues to perpetuate. Good thing I'm old, ugly and in a relationship. I don't have to worry about that kinda shit anymore.
*sigh* but I do love young eye candy.
Dammit!
I mean I disagree too. By ZK's standards, I'm falling apart. :-)
In a way, I agree with him, and I'm not going to blame him for stating what I think is definitely the standard view of most queers.
"Youth is beauty" is hand-in-hand with "the skinnier I am, the prettier I am."
However, I think, the older *I* get, the better looking I've become. I definitely think I have far more pride in my body and my sexuality than I did at 20... which attracts more of the kind of guys I would like to be with than the kind I was sleeping with at 21.
OH, and PS, Juliet --> I will say this. Women come into their sexual peak at 35. So you're not even perfect yet! LOL. I mean, you're getting there. :-)
Youth is wasted on the young, in my opinion. In my late teens and early 20s, I didn't know how lucky I had it.
At 27, I think I've finally gotten completely comfortable with what I have to work with.
