women over 30
Women Over 30 (I think this is by Andy Roony)
As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. And since I AM one, I relish the view on the one side of the fence I used to never quite comprehend.
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 (because you never take her anywhere like that). 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. 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 and/or 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. For all those men who say, “Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free”.
Here’s an update for you … nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it’s not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a ‘little’ sausage.
Cao’s Note: This came from my sister and I’m not in complete agreement with all of this even though I consider some of it to be quite humorous. For example; marriage–I suppose I’m in the minority because I completely believe in the sanctity of marriage, the idea of marriage between a man and a woman; and supporting the American family as a whole.

Great post. My wife is a few years older and, as they say, closer to 40 than 30 in age.
She is all those things described — and then some. I’ve never been much for younger women for all the same reasons described above that make “mature” women so much better. Sense of self and less games.
However, it’s a shame about the last two paragraphs. In my opinion, they take away from the strength of the statements by suggesting — if not revealing — that the author is a woman scorned. It just sounds bitter. But that’s just one guy’s opinion.
Lastly, in all fairness, yellow pants shouldn’t be brought into disdain and, sometimes, a “little sausage” goes a long way — it depends on what you’re cooking.

I have seen what the writer talks about, though–old coots making fools of themselves over younger women.
One guy left his wife, set himself up in a townhouse, and starting chasing 16-year old girls, saying that he could “connect” with them better.
Another guy started wearing letterman sweaters from High School when he found a younger woman–they made complete fools of themselves when they were out together, but couldn’t see it because they both had stars in their eyes.
Un.be.lievable!

there is a quote by andy roony from 60 minutes called “women over 40″ that is almost exactly like this. i think your sister may not be aware that she plagerized him? or did he plagerize someone?

Looks like you’re right, I’ll give him credit. I thik people who pass around emails are just enjoying the content. I wouldn’t consider passing something on as plagerizing. Plagerizing is stealing someone’s work and trying to take credit for writine it. She didn’t do that, she was passing that on, it obviously ws forwarded from someone else. None of those people were taking credit for being the originator of the text.
By the way, I always find it curious when people are looking at archives that are this old. We’re in November of 2006.

Why is there an air of self-rightousness to this whole thing…must one be prideful to be assured? And why take pot-shots at men? Are you not sophisticated enough in your mature grace to see beyond these stereotypes?

Why don’t you a borrow a sense of humor? Woops, that wouldn’t work without the intelligence to use it, lol

Rob - drop your socks and grab a pair if you have them!
I saw this email message over 2 years ago and still laugh everytime I see it … men take pot-shots at women all the time (you’re no different!) — so, when the women take pot-shots at us, just laugh and go on, ya wimp!
