Average Age of the Planet

fever · 03-04-2012, 07:23 PM

I used to be insecure about stating my age. I am 57, Gemini, femme, Canadian. I thought I was too old to be of interest to younger butches. I turned that around and am grateful to be my age. I have lots of life experience, a feisty attitude, a kind and gentle heart. I still haven't found a soul mate, but the journey is certainly a lot of fun. And, Ciaran, you are one of the butches who made this "older and wiser" femme have a marvelous time at the get together in Vegas.

I'm 53 - soon to be 54. It seems that people think I'm quite a bit younger - I'm not sure why. I generally pass for my wife's age - late thirties/early forties. I FEEL as old as dirt though! lol

I was 18 when I joined the old B-F and I'm still here at 22.

BoDy*ShOt · 08-27-2012, 01:44 PM

wow. this made me all reminisce-y..

I was 28 when I joined the dash site, and here I am at 41. I've met the gamut of people, and made some good friends and some who don't like me much.. meh. I've met lovers, brief boifriends, and a very LTR off of each of these sites. it's where I discovered my femme, and where I continue to learn and evolve.

I think you're cool. Sometimes people are a bit overly wary of new people. I like that you bring your own experiences from the real world and are not just another person who has been online for years and years and knows all the right lingo and protocol. You also don't get angry or defensive when people seem to misunderstand you, which shows a lot of class. We need new blood- in terms of new people and younger people. I am glad you are here. Enjoy your youth!

Already said this to Steph, but we all have opinions, don't let anyone get to you. We are wary of newbies, but then many of us have been stung by folks who had nefarious intentions. That's our baggage, not yours. Just be you, said that before too.

You pretty much took the words out of my mouth. The concept anyway.

I am old enough that I take more trips to the Doctor visit the local bar scenes. I now go to bed when I used to go out and wake up when I used to get home. But i love every minute of the age I am. I may even be able to lend some of my experiences to the younger people here.
