>>"But speaking of reality, I do think older men who are only attracted to much younger women are really scared to death of the aging process, and have some degree of self hatred about their aging selves. Plenty of malaise, and more than a minor malfunction!!!"<<

What do older women have to offer older men besides blue hair, osteoporosis, globs of cellulite, post menopause depression, marble bag breasts and varicose veins?

A young woman frees older men from Viagra and six hours of foreplay.

You can show off a young woman at the office Christmas party while the older women are cleaning off the tables and emptying the garbage.

Dear Christine:

I thank you for your response to my post that distanced myself from this thread - essentially.

I will pop a few points, in some way respecting your denmotherhood.

Freedom of expression on Feelings: Too much tolerance. I am now listening to NPR on Indians being savaged. Emcee'd by a cpla young brown female goddesses. And I think of the freedom, and the responses, given to Dwight and JBarrett, et alia. Such insensitive, power-jazzed X's are beneath recognition. They're filled with hate and, also, hateful. Smug. Silly. (I saw some of the absurd Libertarian Convention during the past two days, and find it most difficult to even sense their internal motivations, rather than acknowledging that they belong to an interdependent species.) (One time, on your thread, I stated that we all are identical. I believe you were mortified by that thought. And if the billions of us aren't organic in structure and system, we certainly ain't libertarian - which will get the genetic survival processes going again and lead to....all the things you supposedly fight against.) (In the late 60's, in Central Park, a group of high peaceniks ran through the crowds screaming the words on the banner they carried: Kill For Peace! Their contradiction hurt me - because I could feel then, as I feel now, how it would be good for mankind's future is such as Dwight and JBarrett were not able to spit forth their X with our First Amendment.) (I cannot understand the war gene. Yet I see it in the insensitivity on the current God thread's hostility, and in the absolute insensitiviry of the poor/disadvantaged/
deprived/environmental/social/sexual/ethnic indifferents on Feelings.thread - who repetitively pipe their same tune again and again.) (Terry could well be at 180. Yet, two things: 1) That should allow a realization that we exist organically, rather than still in the power struggle; and 2) When he gets pushed into a corner, he shrinks to a babbling, embarrassing fool - making inane, absurd ad hominim counter attacks.)

Poems. I am not what you claim me to be, a sort of poetry savant. I feel a poem, as I feel a piece of music. The Jill Sills(?) bit gave great feeling about the oppressers. Who are they? God, we could make long lists of the unfeeling, couldn't we?

Old Broads vs. Young Broads: I do not seek something that breathes to place next to me as I retire each night. I seek a mutual, or a challenging, or a reciprocal life form that would provide mutual benefits - she and I. I will, outspokenly, again, say that your extraordinary driven response to this idea - without you knowing what it was you were addressing - should cause you to blush a bit. You seem to indicate that I, as many, seek a ripe firm titty to fondle, and, therefore am rebelling against my becoming rusted. You are off the wall by imputing such motivations simply because you believe you are well-read and comprised of nothing except one or two omniscient nipples.. (As is currently acknowledged in some side comments by you and penni, you are tinkering with senility. I have not met any old broad who has any spontenaity or joie de vivre beyond that recalled from previous existences. Their colors are usually, if not universally, lavender and robin's egg blue. Lifeless forms, whose reproductive and grandchild-care functions have become part of the wake. Your rashness in assessing my motivations is close to insulting.)

Our essential identicality, I think, should lead us to a group effort placed against our survival - NOT THIS I AM ME, ONLY ME IS ME, EVERYONE ELSE IS NOT MY BROTHER, X-THEM SORT OF THING.

And, if you have the ability to believe it, I do admire you greatly, yet I do not envy your husband whom you can look through and not hear when he is trying to communicate with you. geo.
