    As long as my wife is still saying I'm hot, that's all that matters! :glasses:

    Not only "hot" but knowledgeable. A killer combination!

    I think you can be hot at almost 42. :smokin:



    Just saw this. Indeed, Etoiles! :drinker:
    I dunno. Ask all the boys in their 20's chasing after me.

    What's the cutoff? I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but can you really be considered "hot" at 40? 45? 50?

    Hell yes, my FL has quite a few 45+ hotties.

    There is a cutoff? If that is the case, I am wasting my time by going to the gym.

    I think 'Hot' is part confidence and part taking care of oneself. And when I say confidence I don't mean arrogance. I know many younger women that confuse sass and arrogance with confidence. As a 49 year old I've got enuff mileage on me that I have come to believe that time smoothes out the rough spots. :-) , meaning: there's not as much of a sharp edge to the personality. (that whole 'what do you mean by that?' attitude where a person is looking to be offended)

    By the time you're over 40 chances are you've seen a lot and done a lot in your life (if you've chosen to pay attention)

    'Hot' comes in so many shapes and sizes :-)) Can you be 'hot' over 40? Ask Tina Turner, Sophia Loren, Cindy Crawford. I think so.

    My 49 year old wife is the hottest woman I know. Seriously, dropped 40 pounds running, looks fantastic, and is confident in herself. Now that's hot.

    hell yeah, I have a friend that is 40 and hot. I have another42 year old friend that is a hottie also!

    No - you are not hot until you reach late 40s-50s - - it's called Menopause
  • Posts: 47 Member
    Oh absolutely!! I know when I hit 40, I finally felt comfortable, confident and really knew my body and how to use it ;). Hubby likes the 40 year old me! And confidence is the #1 thing that makes anyone sexy in my humble opinion!

    HYFR!!!!!!!! Put in the work and you can be hotter at 40 than you were at 20.
  • Of course coming from a 44 year old who is always mistaken for younger :flowerforyou:

    My highly unscientific observations suggest a huge YES.

    I'm working on it. My goal is to be "hotter" at 40 than I was at 25.

    "i" wasn't able to be hot at 40... but I sorta feel like I am at 56 :)

    Totally Hot. I'm hotter than a lot of the ladies I see that are half my age. You can be gross at 40 too, though, so there are no guarantees of hotness at 40. :laugh:
