al3x Seeks ASOW

al3x Payne is looking for an ASOW (Attractive Slightly Older Woman):

It's not that I can't find females my own age attractive. It's just that attraction is a total package, and though it pains the son-of-a-feminist reflexes in me to say this, that total package gets ripped apart pretty quickly when most of the young women I meet open their mouths.

It scares me how awesome that is. al3x must have read this book, or at least may agree with the premise that women in their early twenties are having sex recreationally all the while not realizing that when they reach their late-twenties, they will become sick of being considered as sluts, are will start looking to settle down and possibly even settle for. Women in their early twenties, Crittenden argues, don't realizing they're sacrificing near future happiness by marrying now, because to them, marriage means not having fun. But marriage—or at least a relationship based on long-term commitment—means security and not having to live alone anymore. And they don't realize, while in their early twenties, that the supply of women in their early twenties is inexhaustible, while the supply of older men as the women get older diminishes.

Although, to be honest, I wouldn't use the word "ladies" when referring to women it their late-twenties/early-thirties. Women is probably a better term, especially coming from someone slightly younger than ASOWs.
