You're as young as the woman you feel

[robinturner]

Loyal readers may remember my soul-searching about being attracted to women many years my junior. Now I have no qualms whatsoever. I've just seen on Turkish television a villager who is 114 years old, together with his twelve-year-old daughter. The girl's mother is thirty-five. That makes a 79-year age difference. And the old goat is considering acquiring another wife! "What can I do?" he says, "the ladies keep chasing after me."

Or as Lauren Hutton once said "Plastic surgery is a way of saying you don't believe in experience anymore." Of course, this was before her bad motorcycle accident, so her opinion may have changed somewhat.

Quite. My wife has a nose job because when she was a teenager she fell over and squashed her nose flat.

Serious accidents aside, I don't know if I'd ever radically change my appearance, but in any case I'd want to wait until medical technology has improved to the extent that I can just design myself a body and have it made up with minimal pain and expense. And I'd need to be able to save a copy of my old face, just in case I didn't like the new one. I'm so indecisive I've never even had a tatto in case I decided I didn't like it afterwards.
