Terri, I'm 52, 5 foot 5 and about 111 pounds and I am bothered by men left right and centre. I have a tiny waist and full hips. I suspect I look fertile or something, hahaha. Joke's on them, I am so over that stage of life.

Attraction is important and pretending it isn't it naive. But that can come in so many forms. Lots of men prefer bigger girls. I perfer a bigger man. But beyond that, as we kinda grow up, we look for other things, character, intelligence, shared goals....those are things you can't put on a scale because they're worth more than what can be measured.
