A woman my age is not supposed to be attractive or sexually appealing. I just get kinda tired of that.

Older fatherhood isn't all bad: testosterone rates drop about 1% per year as men age making them less reactive and more patient and a professionally established middle-aged man is likely to have more time and money to devote to his kids than a twenty-something who's just getting started.

I definitely don't look my age. So I actively look for roles that will help people change their perception of me.

Memory in youth is active and easily impressible in old age it is comparatively callous to new impressions but still retains vividly those of earlier years.

Photography suits the temper of this age - of active bodies and minds. It is a perfect medium for one whose mind is teeming with ideas imagery for a prolific worker who would be slowed down by painting or sculpting for one who sees quickly and acts decisively accurately.

Age becomes reality when you hear someone refer to that attractive young woman standing next to the woman in the green dress and you find that you're the one in the green dress.
