There's an ad on the radio this week that goes something like this: "Product X will take years off your skin. Jeff says, 'I looked at my wife, and it's like I'm looking at her and she's twenty years younger!'"

Obviously this man has no appreciation for the cougar things in life.

The voice actor they chose to play "Jeff" doesn't sound that old, though, which is probably why my brain fills in, "And she's only 32 now, so..."

Remember, the point of these products is: you're not beautiful, sexy, and desirable unless you're twenty years younger than you are right now.

I like men and women who succeed in being beautiful at their own age, through the self-maintenance that comes of good diet, good exercise, and even a good spiritual life, have managed to preserve and even enhance the gifts they received at birth. "Jeff"'s ephebophilia, with his insistence that a miraculous change toward two decades of youthfulness has made his partner more desireable, comes across as downlight creepy.

Nina Hartley looks hotter at her age than many women do in their 20's. I think that says it all.
