Age Discrimination by queeneve: 3:09am On May 13, 2010
A friend of mine was approached by this man who assumed she was in her 20's and when he asked her how old was she
she responded 37, the man then spun a 180 twist and beehived out of sight. She do not look her age and she look
very young.

Do you have age discrimination? Have you ever been a victim of age discrimination when it come to dating or relationship? Do you think age matters? Why are older men targeting younger women then women their age?

Be Honest!

Would u advise ur brother to marry a lady that age?

Nice question. Nw answer.
Re: Age Discrimination by Tattooboy: 5:05am On May 13, 2010
37 assumed to be 20? Drama!
Re: Age Discrimination by queeneve: 7:17am On May 13, 2010
Yes, I would advise my brother to marry a woman her age if HE LOVES HER. If she just happens to be 37 years old and he loves her. I don't see what the problem. There are alot of women in their late age have babies. It said that 40 years old is the age limit you should have children before your children are at high risk of health problems. I know few women
who had their babies after 40 years old and their babies are healthy. It not a rare thing as you may think, maybe you
need to pick up a book or two and understand TECHNOLOGY are pushing pass old news.

You keep it up and your wife will tell you at 55, BABY, I AM PREGNANT!

In this part of the world, age plays a significant role.

Mind you this is not about the character of the person concerned, just the age.
Men tend to run from women that old based on a some of assumption. Some
are as follows:

(i) It is assumed that something must be wrong for someone that old not to have married.
(ii) Nobody wants to have the possibbility of having a medically challenged child, and the attached expenses, which may come as
a result of such union.
(iii) Some guys find it difficult to date gals older than them i.e some pple just can't do it even though it's not a big deal to most pple.

I state again, this is not about the character of the person concerned.

Queeneve,

That's why it's good to start dating early. I won't mind your sister though, even though she's starting late too.  wink

Re: Age Discrimination by otawa: 6:54pm On May 15, 2010
age is a number.

It is meant to control your life and way you think.

important is the personality of the person.

@queeneve, false. no 62 years old woman will have child[ren] without any assistance. If you had followed the news well, you would have noticed that it is assisted reproduction.

@poster, I think we are all ageist to some extent. For the man, the young fresh body of the youngwoman is the needed elixir of life to re-awaken the moribund male intimacy drive. Of course it's all about physical attraction and no one can deny the hard fact that we all lose that lustre as we age - men & women. And I don't think we can question the great Creator for putting a timer on the women anatomy, there is reason for everything. Some women like youngmen because they attain their intimacy.u.a.l prime later than men.

Women are just very sensitive about the age thing, I know of good number of guys that have had there propositions turned down because of difference in age.

If you read well, you will know not all elderly related pregnancies are assisted,

Re: Age Discrimination by Nobody: 1:23pm On May 16, 2010
I state again, this is not about the character of the person concerned.

it's very much about the character of the man involved here.

1. He is very rude, ill mannered and lacks social skills.

2. He approached the woman, she did not approach him, so why did he have to act like she was desperately running after him when she wasnt?

3. He couldnt just say hi, how are you, and move on? Whatever happened to small talk and social niceties?

My verdict? He's one of these foul mouthed people who spend their days chatting online and have lost touch with reality as a result.

He'll probably end up with the type of woman he fears most, but who knows how to cover up what she doesnt want him to see.

4. This is why women lie about themselves. The man is irritating for real. And na lies some people want to hear.


na by force to impose your sorry behind on somebody?

It's abroad sha. In Nigeria he'd be considered a small boy.
