Jeez, Cuckoores, you’re a perv.
Cuckoorex, you’d have been a perv if, after guestimating the age, you smiled and intensified your leering.
A year or so ago, I was waiting at a bus stop, and I noticed a very attractive young woman there. I would not have made a move–I suspected she was young and probably inappropriate for me, which in my terms is under 25 or so–but then she opened her mouth. It became clear that she was in grade ten, as her conversation was entirely about celebrities and cliquish politics and school.
My interest vanished instantly.
Yes, we may look, but realistically, it’s about more than the body.
Crikey – if you were in Burlington, Vermont I’d be wondering whether you’d just seen my niece. Who, her mother reports, is already attracting attention from men. To make it worse, she’s a blue-eyed blonde with a face as killer gorgeous as her body. I sure don’t envy my sister’s job trying to get my niece safely through the hazards of adolescence!
15? I know of no woman 19 to 55 who wants their 15yo body back, 25 35 or 45 yo bodies back, anyday yeah!
Heh, I’m not female of course but I’d take my 15 year old body again. Of course, it’s pretty much the same as my 20-25 year old body but I still say that counts.
I’d take my fifteen year old body back in a heartbeat, and I’d appreciate it this time!
I’d take my 15 year old body in a heartbeat.
This man would do the same. I’d be two-thirds the man I currently am!
Any time a group of men has gathered to consume alcohol, it’s guaranteed that sooner or later there will be prodding of some variety.
Please, please give me back my 15-year-old body! I promise I’ll take better care of it this time!
My 15 y.o. body was smokin’ hot, athletic, hard as a rock, and just right. If I had known then what I know now, I wouldn’t have looked at my strangely small girlfriends and thought I was a big fat cow. I’d sell my mother to get that back and do it right this time. Just the body. The mind can go fu…um…get lost.
These reactions do not seem creepy.
Creepy would be if you tongued the webbing between your middle finger and index finger when you see her.
I have the body of a 15 year old…
…it’s in the trunk of my car.
badda-boom ching.
Thanks, I’ll be here all week.
Not if I have anything to say about it…
Neither comment is creepy. As for the first one, here’s a newsflash: some minors are physically attractive. Acting on that attraction can be creepy, but just talking about it? Who cares.
As for the second, “I wish I had her body” is basically the same statement whether you’re referring to a 15 year old or a supermodel. You think they’re more attractive than you are, you’re jealous, and you’re expressing it. What’s creepy about that?
What if you used to have as much money as Bill Gates, but you lost it through no fault of your own? Would it be creepy to say “I wish I had all that money again”?
I don’t think either remark is creepy. In the previous post Mr.2001 expressed my thinking on the subject very well.
Not I! I was 5’7" and 80 lbs.
Jah. I ran into the Town Gossip today, who was traipsing through the store with her 13 year old daughter in tow. I’ve known said daughter since she was… 2? 3? Something. Her older bro and my son were tight pals for about 8 years and still hang out some.
I remarked to wife when I got home that I ran into them, and that the daughter had become a very beautiful kid. That’s how I see em. ( my own daughter included, who it goes without saying is the most beautiful daughter of all of the daughters on the planet. ). They’re beautifu, and they’re kids.
Were the men creepy? Nah, men look. I look. Only a liar says he doesn’t look, and we all know he’s lying. It’s what they’re really thinking and feeling inside while they are looking that is the differentiating factor, and only men know what the truth is there, and of course it varies from man to man.
The flipside of the creepy is taking your daughter’s face in your hands and kissing her cheek and reminding her of what a beautiful gal she is inside and out. Makes the kid light up like a torch. From where I sit, being that loving and appreciative of your own kid is a part of being a parent.
Someone else’s kid? Not so much !!
Similarly, the women’s comment is one I’ve heard from women I socialize with. Doesn’t make em catty or creepy or anything else. People rue the loss of youth, it’s human nature. My nephew at 24 is boundlessly strong, energetic and YOUNG ! I don’t hate him, but I remember those days and envy him the relentless supply of power running through his veins.
OTOH, the quote from Silence of the Lambs defined that entire character in one sentence. If anyone was unsure of just what a detached sociopath Jaime Gumm was, that sentence nailed it. --shudder-- brilliantly sick stuff.

I’d love to have my 15 year old body back. I wouldn’t hide it under flannel shirts and baggy jeans this time around.
