So she's 107 years old but fancies young men


I mean, being an old lady her taste does not get old too? Or the non-aging condition affects even that aspect? I thought she'd go at least for Harrison Ford.
Hope you understand what I'm saying.

It a little known fact. Dorian Grey dug women whose whole life showed on their faces.

She's physicslly young, so I suppose still has the desires of a healthy young woman. I am not sure how i would feel in that situation. Certainly i would consider being with someone mentally much younger than me a disadvantage, but Harrison Ford is also much younge than her

reply

Everybody, no matter what age, is attracted to young sexy people. It's that simple.

She was 107 but as she didn't age, she felt young, she did not go through menopause and all the homones changes. So I believe it's natural that she would fall for guys that were similar to her and mature enough to match her experience.

reply

She's physically and mentally frozen at that young age.

It's part of the reason she wants to undo what happened to her -- so she can grow older physically and mentally.

reply

But she really isn't an old woman, because she has not experienced life as anything but a young woman. People treat you differently at different stages of your life, especially an old person. So it makes perfect sense that her choices are going to be different than those of a 107 year old woman.

reply

Even Harrison Ford's character is too young for her if she is 107.
Honestly, her appearance and health, etc, make her physically like a 30 something, therefore it makes sense.

I'm nearly seventy, and I can tell you from first-hand experience that you will always find younger people attractive, no matter how old you get.
