I had a very brief convo with Alana the other day on how I was sad that I would not get to be an old man. Alana thought that old ladies were cooler, and I disagreed. Here are the reasons why old men are better, which I did not give to her, just because I'm lazy.
You get to be a lecherous old man. In women, it is not expected, and it is not accepted, nor entertaining when an old woman is lecherous. However, when an old man calls a grocery store asking for a delivery, and states many times that he's alone, there is some humor in it. Were it an old lady, it would just be sad.
Old men are funnier. Just in being old men they are comical. Old women are whiny, bitchy, or overly pleasant and sweet.
Old men do not feel the need to douse themselves in horrible smelling perfume. Sure, they smell a little, but you don't pass out from it, and usually can't smell them when they walk in the door. (There are exceptions though, and those old men aren't cool).
Old men have viagra.
Old men are more likely than old women to marry someone young enough to be their grandchild. THough they will not appriciate the youthful beauty for long as the viagra will make them go blind.
Old mens breasts' will sag much less than an old womans.
That's all I got, but in closing, when I turn 50, I"m getting a sex change.
