Why Older Men Prefer Younger Women. Or Don’t.
March 5, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
On January 7, 2011, I posted a piece titled “The Myth of Older Men Wanting Younger Women.” I said that, in spite of the common belief that all older men are chasing after younger women, my experience has been otherwise. The response was instant and strong. On both sides of the aisle. On February 28, […]
The Perks of Online Dating After 50: A Guest Post from eHarmony Canada
February 27, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
My Sex and the Sixty-Year-Old posts got the attention of eHarmony Canada, who requested equal time. I’m happy to give it because, in spite of what I write about Susan’s misadventures in the dating world, I believe that online dating works. I, along with countless other formerly single people, found love online. I’m also […]
The Wiggles:A Guest Post by Nancy Roman
February 22, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Nancy is the author of a blog called, NotQuiteOld, which is sort of how everyone of a certain age feels because old is something that those “other” people are, not us. Old is like 20 years away. Always. Right? Right. But it’s that pesky “notquiteold” dimension that we exist in that keeps reminding us that we may be notquiteold, […]
I Am Honored, Farklempt, and Completely Pissed Off
February 20, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Peg, of Peg-o-Leg’s Ramblings, is one of those bloggers who regularly knocks me down to size, which is completely depressing since I am 5’1″ tall and usually totter around in high heels and big hats so no one notices. Except they do anyway. Back to Peg. Every time I write one of my world class, priceless posts […]
A Valentine for Raggedy Andy
February 9, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
You were my best friend, my first true love. We were inseparable. In the increasingly potholed memory of my mind, I remember one of us or both of us overcome with grief that we weren’t seated near each other. The teacher relented. I am occasionally bothered that one memory has us then seated side-by-side at […]
Hmmm…Aren’t You Forgetting Something?, a guest post by Mrs. Cap’n Firepants
February 7, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Mrs. Cap’n Firepants, (which might rival Dr Seuss for Most Memorable Pen Name) writes that she is “the distinguished authoress of the blog, What I Meant 2 Say.” She also writes that “she completely defied aging until about two years ago – when she acquired the infamous and extremely destructive bulldog, Wonderbutt. Now, her wrinkles outnumber the dog’s. […]
The Real Housewives of Charlotte County, A Guest Post by Katy Clark
January 30, 2013 by Life in the Boomer Lane
K8edid’s blog is, in her own words, has “not much to say about me, and a whole lot to say about me. I’m pushing fifty (as in “blew past it and pushing farther and farther away”). I’ve been married for 33 years to my best buddy and greatest supporter, affectionately known as Sweet Cheeks. […]

38
In its March 2013 issue, AARP Magazine presents “Sex at 50+: What’s Normal?” in which they answer our burning curiosity about other people’s sex lives. A heads up (in a manner of speaking): If you routinely incorporate the Area 51 Love Doll, the Strict Leather Dildo Face Harness, or the Drilldo into your sexual repertoire, […]
