What else is interesting is the assumption that younger, more attractive women aren't also just as interesting to talk to. That just sounds like insecurity.

dating one younger man/woman is fine, and they can be just as interesting.

constantly changing for a younger model, as you suggest, is pathetic, and leads to you staring desperately at them as they talk about bars and fashions of which you have never heard.

or, you know, fretting because they are going to a party.

OK, so one younger man/woman is ok and they might well have something interesting to talk about.

Yep, I remember what I said
What I'm commenting on is your assumption that anybody younger is likely to be vapid. Which blatantly isn't true. What is true is that women are generally jealous of and threatened by younger women. I'm saying it's more likely that you're scared of being left on the shelf than it is that you really think younger women are stupid.

At least, I hope you are. I wouldn't like to think what sort of idiot would genuinely pass off entire generations of people as stupid simply because they're younger.
(, Tue 15 Oct 2013, 17:52, Reply)
i really think you have misunderstood me
it's probably all the panic over your girlfriend copping off at a house party.

the point is, if you constantly switch for ever younger models, you will look like a twat, you will be shallow and basing it on looks, and you will have increasingly little in common as the age gap widens. meanwhile, what sort of younger woman wants to go out with an older, decrepit man? a bimbo who is after cash, that's what sort.

younger women are stupid. older women are stupid. but anyone whose key criteria is a "younger hotter model" is the stupidest of all.

(, Tue 15 Oct 2013, 18:01, Reply)
I haven't, you have taken a stupid joke at least semi-seriously, judging by your rather transparent attempts to hit a nerve with the party thing which, also, was a joke.
I am, quite seriously, having a go at you because you seem to have a rather unrealistic attitude about younger women being vapid and stupid which is in itself a rather vapid and stupid attitude to hold.

You didn't say older women were stupid, you specifically said that younger women wouldn't have anything to say for themselves, which is total horseshit as I very genuinely hope you know.

I have been sent the worst bollocks jargon email of all time today, from some tosser at a MAJOR FASHION MAGAZINE:
'Some back story on the project:

*REDACTED*, the World's Biggest Fashion Magazine, is in the process of creating an agile 360 office environment where the Fashion Cupboard is the center of the print magazine and digital workflow. The Cupboard will be a living breathing sub-brand that is alive 24 hours a day – the forefront of content creation. It is a place where we will curate all our content, that all staff can see. The Fashion Cupboard will also be where we take visitors and high-profile clients, such as Louis Vuitton and Gucci, into the office. It will be the physical manifestation of the *REDACTED* brand.

We are the first magazine/website at *REDACTED* to be working across all platforms in a total 360 way with a central closet showcase hub.'
