TommoPhysicist Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I wasn't having a pop at anyone here, I just mentioned dirty old men in reference to dirty old men in general. Although it would appear that when one mentions the words 'dirty old men' a certain section of the forum's contributors seem to take it very personally indeed. Considering 90% of the forum is men older than 50 ............. hardly surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should wait till he's tried them both before he decides who's old and young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering 90% of the forum is men older than 50 ............. hardly surprising. Some posters have a problem writing the words "old man" without adding "dirty." I believe this is called Ageism. I think it may be caused in some people by, Chronocentrism currently or in the past. At any rate gerontophobia is a relative common problem among some primitive people.

chooka Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 There is a big redlight area in Singapore with many Thais working there. I would guess that Singaporean Chinese would get most of the modeling jobs for Asians. She will be modeling mattresses. Gets her a leg up into the business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe youth is his greatest attribute, and he is dreading losing it. That's why I pretend I'm not old, even though I'm over 40. I like to pretend that I'll be good for another twenty years or more, that I'm barely half way through my career. SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcsw53 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I had a similar experience. Told her when I was next coming to Thailand and got the "great can't wait" reply. On arriving at the hotel her cell phone is off all afternoon so I am wondering what is going on. Then a knock on the door and there is her sister standing there asking me to promise not to be angry. My girlfriend has had to go out of town for a while. Naturally I am pretty pissed as I have come specifically to see her, if she had told me I would have postponed my trip. Where has she gone ? Another 10 minutes playing 20 questions and I find out she is REALLY out of town. In Aberdeen, working in a "beauty salon". But I just came from the UK I tell her. The upshot ? Singha beer sales went up considerably for the next few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it would appear that when one mentions the words 'dirty old men' a certain section of the forum's contributors seem to take it very personally indeed. Considering 90% of the forum is men older than 50 ............. hardly surprising. That doesn't make sense. If I had used the phrase 'gay old men' would this minority of old men been jumping up and down quite so vigorously? And was there a poll on member's ages which included all the posters, or did you make that statistic up yourself?

Some posters have a problem writing the words "old man" without adding "dirty." - Perhaps thats because they don't like dirty old men. I believe this is called Ageism. - I believe its called a dislike of dirty old men. If was ageism then nice old men, charming old men, interesting old men, respectable old men would be in the firing line, but they're not. So it most clearly is not ageism. I think it may be caused in some people by, Chronocentrism currently or in the past. What is? (and if you are going to cut and paste the word chronocentrism you could at least replace the capital C with a lower case one. People may believe you know how to spell the word all by yourself then). At any rate gerontophobia is a relative common problem among some primitive people. - At your age I would stay clear of those primitive people if that really is the case. If that's possible in your current situation of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
