Women over 40 (Andy Rooney)

60 Minutes Correspondent Andy Rooney (CBS)

As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all.

Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think.

If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game,she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting..

Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.

Older women are forthright and honest.
They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like
one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons.

Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize.

For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? here's an update for you.

Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!

What is wrong with you people? I love divorced women over forty, with two or more kids, and barely hanging onto their jobs. Why, they lower their standards down to my level. How the hell you think I have had four good looking wives?

Well, it's just true you know! Times have changed for women, being 'over 40' doesn't mean being old. They are self confident, don't have to prove anything anymore and know what they want.

Awesome, Carolina. And I like Andy Rooney even more now!

(yes, I can recall a time when I might have hesitated to call some deserving guy a jerk!)

I remember when I was in my early twenties (a long time ago), the advice was to date women over 40.

"They look swell, they never tell" and most importantly, they are always grateful....
