no caution needed

I’m not hot but I appreciate being handled with care.

McDonald's morning coffee prompted a question

(after making a few assumptions first) 

At what age do you go from being hot and sexy to being cool and sweet? 

In other words when does your description more likely include “sweet old man” or “such a sweet lady” than those more sultry words?



Sexy is mostly in our heads. A definite age for this transition doesn’t exist. George Clooney (turned 50 last year) might still rate a sexy in his description. What about Robert De Niro? Bob’s age is approaching 69 and he doesn’t look bad in this 2011 picture.

from wikipedia

So this is all very subjective but I bet we can all agree the following picture is NOT sexy (maybe sick?).

I dunno... that burger king guy has some nice leg muscles...

lisleman said...

oh he probably smells greasy and you might end-up with sesame seeds.

DeNiro is sorta creepy looking. Clooney will look sexy when he's 98. I am and always have been in the cool and sweet category. But that's okay with me. Being a hot mamacita has never been one of my goals. Neither do I want to cavort with the King of Burgers. 

lisleman said...

thanks for your answers.  I had a drunk relative tell me I looked like George Clooney once.  I'm counting that as a plus.

I have no answers.

Laurie Matherne said...

Yes. That's a plus. That's better than if he/she had said you looked like Rosemary Clooney. Not good.

when I began being called "ma'am". :-(

I've always been kind of cute, so I guess I won't see many changes as I grow older. Unless one day I find myself sexy, crazier things have happened. BTW not only is the king picture at the bottom creepy but that little McDonald head is super creepy.  Wait a minute is there a theme here?

Its good to be the king

lisleman said...

I do enjoy hamburgers.  thanks

lisleman said...

that is more common in the south so maybe it's just a southern thing.

lisleman said...

speechless?

oceangirl said...

Any men younger than my age is definitely not sexy in my book.

Shrinky said...

I think you never realise you were hot and sexy until you grow old and wrinklie (insert heartfelt sigh)..

Frau said...

Hot and sexy is a lot of work....I'll take cute and sweet any day! For men it's how they carry themselves....

lisleman said...

I thought the age difference didn't matter after the man matured which can happen in their 20's, 30's, ??.  Some never mature.

I never use the word "sexy". It has no meaning to me, really. 

Reena Walkling said...

Never think of guys as "sexy"  ... hot maybe ... but I'll take the nice and sweet guy any day ... well, maybe George would be an exception!

lisleman said...

George might have all those characteristics. 

oceangirl said...

I agree.  It is a personal feeling.  As it is, I see Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, as too young and not quite mature.

lisleman said...

Ok but are you talking about the word or the concept?  The word is probably overused over-marketed.  The concept of attractiveness is very basic to the animal world.  thanks

lisleman said...

Not only work but money too.  Carry themselves - but if the guy is carrying TOO MUCH of himself then his appeal could go negative.
thanks

lisleman said...

The personal feelings vary so much.  It makes life both interesting and frustrating at the same time.  There are women who find too much maturity boring.

Nezzy said...

I still like to think I haven't outgrown the sizzilin' stage and menopause confirms that...literally!!!     Heeehehehe!!!''

I have to confess the BK king kinda freaks me out!!!

God bless and have yourself a fantastic day man!  :o)

lisleman said...

Being "hot" anyway you can find it - works for me.  The King guy is funny vs. creepy to me.  thanks

secret agent woman said...

Mostly about individual tastes, I think, rather than a specific age.

Jene said...

Ohh, the king creeps me the heck out!! Bad picture! Bad picture!

lisleman said...

Hey if you got too upset by the king, uh could I have your fries?
