My mom was a different generation: she was almost forty when she had me, so she had certain very firm convictions. Some of them rubbed off on me without me being aware of it. For instance, my sex life would've started MUCH earlier if I hadn't been convinced that I'd ruin my life if I got pregnant outside of marriage. These days, nobody seems to give that a second thought. At least a third of the women at my last workplace had kids and no husband in sight. (All under 30.) I'm not sorry I didn't take the chance, though. I'm not really cut out for motherhood.
Older men...it's a funny thing about that. When I was in my teens and twenties, guys my own age weren't attractive to me. Now I'm 40-something and gawd, when did those young guys get so hot? *mind boggles* I feel like such a perv, sometimes!
