Age | Swinging Heaven

23 Jan 2009

Just thought I would try the subject of age discrimation. True people have the right to meet or talk to anyone they want but why are some people rude when rejecting someone's approach. I've had "old w*nker", "sorry you are too old".
Sorry to winge but it does pee me off. Hope I don't cause to much of a reaction to this post wink

Nothing when they're talking to you! :giggle:

I have age issues but they're mostly on paper and they're mostly in the opposite end of the scale to you, although I tend not to be attracted to people of my parents age (sorry). If I meet someone in person and the chemistry is there then it really doesn't matter how old they are.
And think yourself lucky... it could be worse, Mrs Powers called me a Dirty Cow the first time I met her! :mrgreen:

A lot of people have age limits say they wont play with anyone older than their parents or younger than their kids
That's their choice I agree, People dont have to be rude though
However
1. be thankful you got a reply
2. the people in question may have been having an off day
3. Sometimes a rude reply is easier for the couple as some dont take no for an answer even when it comes to no thanks..

:thumbup:
I have a son of 30 so I won't play with guys younger than that. I state my age preference in my ad and profile and still get 20-somethings messaging me. I'm always polite and explain why and mostly they accept my reasons though I do get the occasional one who really won't take no for an answer.......then I just blind em with sarcasm :dry:

For me there's a couple of issues here. No way could I look at a woman the age of my daughter. It's creepy.
On the other hand age is just a number, there's fantastic women out there over 50 and also some shocking under 30 (and all ages in between). Looking good for an age is an insult because it implies that if that person was a few years younger they'd be bloody rough!
You either look good or you don't.

i'm an old wanker and i would definitely lookn at a woman the age of my daughter cos i'm a pervert too lol

i'd fall off my zimmer if a young girl came on to me :lol:

23 Jan 2009

I think 'not older than either of my parents and not young enough to be my child' feels reasonable for me - that's personal preference. So is 'no married/attached men playing away.' I don't think stating those preferences in response to a mesage is rude, as long as put politely. If someone has put preferences on their profile though and someone is pushy about challenging those, then a stroppy reply is quite acceptable!

as I said to the last person who raised this issue....
not everyone is going to want to play with someone old enough to be there mum/dad
not everyonr is going to want to play with someone young enough to be there daughter/son...
I don't think it is age discrimination... more age preference...
I am sure that even you have yours..... :wink: or feel more comfortable around people of certain ages...

Def a dirty ol man here could watch em for ages whatever age if they were at it and if asked to take part what the heck get stuck in, would have to take me teeth out first tho of course.

If he can get me in the mood, and follow through, I don't care how old he is. Or she for that matter. But I feel intimidated by young firm bodies cos I can't help but compare them unfavourably with mine. I don't often read the ages on profiles anyway, and communicating with someone in the forum or chatroom I just take them to be the same age as me. Sorry if that offends anyone younger than me bolt

Yes I agree with this, and I wonder if it goes a good way to explaining why I feel attracted to older men as I get older.

I must admit when i first joined the site i dabbled with the 20 somethings, and to be honest it wasn`t for me, i prefer people around my own age group, so we can moan about the kids and the weather etc lol

just have more things in common i suppose

8 Mar 2009

One of the things this site has definitely opened my mind to is that age really is irrelevant. Sexy just is... regardless of age. It's a state of mind for me.

8 Mar 2009

People can take age discrimination to the extreme.
I don't think there's anything wrong in people being honest and saying 'sorry but too old' just as there wouldn't be anything wrong in saying 'sorry but you're too young'... it's a personal preference at the end of the day.
If you were being stopped from doing something because of your age, that would be different, but you're not as you can just move on and meet someone else.
I actually prefer older men, but I wouldn't have thought a younger man would feel discriminated against for my preference smile

You, bint, have a body people ten years younger would be proud of! poke

I like rugged blokes-ones who look like they stand a chance in hell of handling me lol

and I think it's just par for the course that guy's get "ruggeder" as they get older. cool

Its all about preference for sure. Although if you have a quick sken through the folks that you KNOW are experienced and happy successful swingers and then compare them to the newbies and inexperienced you'll find far more of the latter will have age stipulations.
I reckon its because more of them are more turned on by an abstract idea of what swinging is about than the knowledge that all kinds of different experiences can be sexy and that frequently the sexiest ones are the most unexpected.
Still if people want to exclude themselves from all sorts of possibilities before they have any idea what they might lead to then I guess its their loss really. I would argue that they will eventually be missing out by limiting their horizons in a world that's about stretching them.
