the Term "Mature"

[Justapervert]

so what exactly does this mean? I have recently seen a BP ad for one who is 60+ using this term, and another who advertises here, who i once saw (and NEVER will again) that uses this term as well as several other ladies. What exactly does this mean? I can say about my experience ONLY, in her case it meant a gum job.

Mature covers a broad age group, ranging from 40-60+ as you have discovered.

I agree with you here, although I have seen some women who are 35 + refer to themselves as mature. Also possibly could refer to not strictly their age, but possibly their " maturity " in outlook and behavior in life.

I think "mature" usually denotes 40+. Since I am a very mature person myself, I find that a well-preserved provider's maturity is usually an asset rather than a liability.

Throughout time, I have, on occasion, seen "mature" on advertisements from ladies as low as late 20s and early thirties.

I believe the biggest reasoning for mature at that young age range is to identify themselves as being reliable and professional and seeking more distinguished/discerning clientele....

I suppose the meaning of mature would vary per advertisement.

mature has nothing to do with age. I'm 50 something I just sayin

When denoting age, "mature" is simply older than MILF.

I think "mature" means when a Mod resigns, has his reviews pulled, comes back with a new Handle, feigns newbiness by saying in half of his initial dozen posts "but what do I know, I'm new here", aquires a second Handle ( flaunting the rules he was formerly supposed to uphold , thus kicking dirt in the face of the current Mods and denigrating the Mod position itself), gets banned, comes back still pretending to be a newbie while simultaneously reciting history of the Board and individual members dating back years, starts multiple threads with questions which he already has answers for apparently either just to hear himself talk or to have a platform to argue with other members......oh wait, that would be the definition of IMmature and you wanted mature. Sorry. My bad. Carry on this discussion please.....

Deepthinker,

Great sentence!! Grammar and punctuation are perfect . I always have appreciated, and still do,

your input and comments since I became a member on this site and more so now that I am a mod.
You have a great way to cut through the bullshit and say what you mean without being nasty or obviously disrespectful.

Keep up the good work my friend.

If true, Justapervert is ok by me. He has not as of yet try and be a hammer with this handle. And plays cat & mouse, checkers and chess. All games I like to play.

Now what's that other missing handle new handle.
