Yesss YOU! 🤩

They all dress the same, same hairstyle, same makeup, and they are found in groups. Maybe if a woman walks into a room where she is the only woman then she will turn head. Otherwise nobody is paying attention. And if you turn head it will only last only until the next attractive woman walks in.

I turned a head today driving in slow neighborhood traffic. We had stopped for construction, I was putting on chapstick, and a dude driving in the opposite lane (in a red C4, no less) slowed, made eye contact, smiled... I was literally just putting on clear balm and singing along to my tunes.

Turning a head is easy. The bolded is why I don't care. I don't want anyone's casual interest in my meatsuit. I want someone who can attract my brain. This is not the way. Men are constantly scanning for accessible meat. It's not a win to be seen that way.

I am 47. I hasn’t stopped yet.

Only head that ever turned was my now DH. Still turn his head after 30+ years.

I’m 40 and I have *maybe* turned a few in the past 2 years.

It’s not me dressed up looking nice but in … workout clothes. So.

I still get interest, but it's from men of quality, after some conversation. This is where I wish I'd been all along.

THIS!!! I "dress to depress" to try to avoid getting hit on by randos, and even that isn't enough some days. I was sorely disappointed to find that the Cloak of Invisibility I was promised at 40 never arrived.

Never turned heads much. I tend to be a person people respond to once I speak with them, so nothing much has changed for me. Getting older has been a relief, because I never liked the few catcalls and things like that when I was younger.

Spoken like someone who paid a Tate bro to teach him how to get laid, but still doesn't get laid.

What about non-white men? They may not be your cup of tea but perhaps to those men you are attractive

49 and still do. And most of you would be shocked to know that I weigh more than 150 lbs. I have a pretty face, good skin, a great smile, nice legs, and I’m funny as hell.

Come on ladies some you are way too hard on yourself. We still do look at you, we are just a bit more discreet about it perhaps far more than men older than us used to be.

I don't think I ever really turned heads except maybe a few in my college days. I did manage to get married and my husband seems plenty attracted to me still at 40. But he's the only one I ever notice for a while now.

OP, I also felt I was going invisible after gaining quite a lot of weight from my last baby. I started working out last summer and have lost about 20 pounds and while I have many pounds to go, I look fit and am slimmer, which has helped.

I wish I didn’t care about turning heads but I do.

I think some women actually are at their personal prettiest in their late 30s. I think I was this way. I knew how to dress and take care of my hair, I had no wrinkles, etc. that’s when I got the most male attention.

Agree. Late 30s were a great era for me!
