Let me guess, you're one of these dull ageists who gets all properly and morally outraged when he sees a 38 year old like me with his 23 year old girlfriend, but offers no help to the 23 year old men when they get rejected?

And expects the man to live without sex for years while women get all the attention... but doesn't like it when the man finally gets it on with the young hotties?

Probably because your boring, dull, repetitve suburban existence drags on day to day while all your unique traits get subsumed into the "family life" and your wife is tunring into a monster, but if you get divorced, you risk losing everything?

It just means 19 year old women are attractive, so it's only natural that 19 year old men are horny.

30 year old men look more like men than 19 year old men, so it's only natural that 30 year old women are horny.

Nature's way is also the fact that women enjoy their sexual power when they're young. We enjoy it when we're older, with younger women.

No one complains when young women reject young men. They shouldn't complain when after a life of easy sex, the tables turn.

They don't like it? Tough. They didn't care about men's feelings when they were young, why should we care when they're older?

"Men lose it earlier than women anyway I think."

Well we have to do all the work. We have to take all the risks, be charming, intelligent, funny, tall, handsome and be able to decipher women's cryptic signals on-the-fly. After hours of chess-like rituals, we are expected to still have the energy to perform physically all the while taking care of your pleasure first.

You just have to lie there.

If you were a man, you would be tired of this crap after a few decades too.

(And looking at 47 year old women is not exactly nature's Viagra.)

Aging is a horror

and LW is honest enough to say it, instead of serving up boring platitudes about the "insecurity" of your 20s or the "wisdom" of age.

Aging is a disease, atoms don't have an age, so why should we?

Give to SENS and help defeat aging!

Younger is better than older. Youth is power, beauty, intelligence, hope, fire, passion. Aging is decay, decrepitude, slowing down, dumbing down, numbing down. Don't accept it!

yes yes yes

it's about how "we treat new mothers". Imagine if a new father had done this? The man-bashing wouldn't stop for months.

Aging is a horror

Wait until the wheels start falling off from important things like sight, hearing, etc...

I believe it is a programmed series of events and it can be studied, understood and one day stopped and even reversed. The only thing that can get us there is SENS.

http://www.sens.org/

Look on YouTube for SENS presentations. Try to see what you can contribute to this effort.

We need to study cases like Brooke Greenberg's and learn from it. We need to study progeria in the hopes that this extreme aging can shed some light on normal aging. Look into Alagebrium and hope it gets approved. Work to make sure it does.

The savings in health care costs alone should make it obvious that this is the way to go.

Cherry angiomas?

Cherry angiomas are these red spots people get on their skin. They are basically out-of-control blood vessels. Are these not considered a type of cancer? Recently I've had these things pop up everywhere on my body. No smoking, no drinking, no red meat, no soda pop addiction. And my quite old parents don't have any.

I'm going to get them removed but they kind of scare me. I don't consider them a "cosmetic" issue when my body fails to recognize that it doesn't need to grow bundles of capillaries near the surface of my skin.

I now noticed that a lot of people, people in their 20s, are literally covered in them. Big ones. Is this not something worth of serious study?

All I ever see is them mentioned as some kind of minor cosmetic flaw.

Relax, you'll pop an undiagnosed aneurysm and end up broke getting a stent on the sidewalk. Seriously, good replies; hope the AC reads it, or has them read to him.
