It’s saddening that a woman’s appearance weighs so much in society. I’ve always thought it was unfair that men were allowed to age, bald, gain weight, etc., and it doesn’t seem like their “value” decreases in society.

I think he's beautiful without a bunch of make-up (which is a sort-of lie).

I find beauty in three things... Money, Sex, and Personal Power. My entire daily world revolves around judging people, events, and circumstances - and their relationship to me . Even though I'm 72, I still want to acquire more money, sex, and personal power. - As far was women... - I am drawn to women, of any race, creed, or color who exude their money, sex, or power. Poor, mousey, broke women,, even though they may be beautiful on the inside, are a total turn off to me. - I was born in 1951. A baby boomer. There has been no change in my outlook since I hit puberty in the 1960's. I don't understand (or want to understand) todays psycho babble. -
