Can 50 YO Men Be "Hot"?

[Anonymous]

Yes, there are. But perhaps not where she lives? In my neighborhood, most definitely. That includes DH, who is 51, dark skin, head full of curls, tall, slim, a runner. He gets checked by both men and women. I’m the same age, but look at least 5 years his senior thanks to pale skin and sun damage from growing up on a lake…annoying.

Not in too bad shape but need to lose about 10-15 pounds, and I will by spring time. I really do pass for much younger and have a lot of fun with it sometimes. We aren't all geezing in our older ages.

LOL!

Objectively, no he’s not. But cognitive dissonance has a positive side.

Nope, he is hot to everyone. He was extremely good looking when we met and he got hit on by both women and men all the time.

The wrinkles we are talking about are not on the face.

This means nothing unless you've seen them in person. If all you've seen is their photos and videos, you are seeing a very controlled image, like any celeb.

Goodness, Brad Pitt looks very, er, tired. George Clooney still has a little something something.

That something something is called plastic surgery by the best in Beverly Hills, a nutritionist and a daily trainer to still look like Amal's dad.

I’m reading this thread with interest. What would be acceptable to this group? Would it only be acceptable to say You’re right, no person 50 or older could be considered hot or even attractive. By that age you must throw in the towel and resign yourself to a life of quiet dignity wearing velour tracksuits and pining over the grandkids all day? In reality, at 51 I’m running around in jeans juggling work, teen kids, and a busy social life with hubby. It might not be “hot,” but it’s not geriatric.

Still not objective.

I think what is reasonable is that there is more to life than "being hot". I work out, eat healthy and am kind. My H/W and I love each other and that is very attractive to me. I dress nice because I like to not because I want to be hot to some stranger.

In reality, most people were never hot and that is okay.

Nobody needs to wear elephant leg pants if you like skinny jeans. It's okay that you have wrinkles around your eyes, you neck is loose, and your elbows look like elephant knees. Sure you stomach is flat, good for you but who cares the skin on top of it is old and unattractive, get a flat stomach if it feels good but not because you think it is hot.

Work more on your inner self than your outer self, you will be much happier person all around.

Have you seen Jonny Depp in Fairfax court? Nothing hot about an old sack.

I'm mid-50s. Current girlfriend is 23. Here are the ages of my previous 6 girlfriends: 23, 26, 27, 27, 29, 41.

Definitely no. To give your perspective, 50 is to men what 35 is to women.

50m = 35f
